Speaking of Amish… I’m a frum male with a beard and yarmulke. A few years ago, I was teaching a special ed math class in a public high school. I was basing some lessons on my need to buy a new car, talking about things like gas mileage, auto loans, etc. This was at the time of the Amish school shooting (google it if you don’t know what I’m talking about), so the Amish were in the news. One day one of my students asked me if I were Amish. Another student piped up, “Of course not. He uses a calculator.”
