Tell him that the Amish never asked the government to pave their roads. Most of the Amish farms predate paved roads.

Don’t suppose we could force the Amish to run their horses on gas so they can’t get out of paying gas taxes anymore. LOL

I've already tried but he won't budge.

All he sees is the Amish taking a few bucks from him.

It's ridiculous and petty.

The Amish want NOTHING from the government and in no way shape or form do they want GOVERNMENT paved roads. He is imposing his secular views on them and the Amish are not guilty of what he is accusing them of. It is the government forcing it's will on them. I doubt that anyone will get through to him.
