I didn't know the Amish lived in “luxury tents”.

Is this a new perk?

I suspect this might be another "religion of peace" encounter ... they seem to enjoy beheadings.

They do have hotels available if you don't want a “luxury tent” and camels only to be used for transportation - no sex.

Actually a local issue for me.

Wouldn't surprise me if the son was a convert to the "religion of pieces".
