Johnson-Weiner, Anthropologist: The Amish sense, is that God's followers, the faithful, are going to be a small number.

And they are passing through this world, and the world is an evil place.
而他们正在路过这个世界，而这个世界是一个邪恶的地方。
David Weaver-Zercher, Historian: In 16th century European life, the Anabaptists were unique because they believed in "Believer's Baptism," that is baptism as an adult, but what that really symbolizes is the understanding that making a Christian commitment and joining the church is something that you can only do voluntarily.
David Weaver-Zercher，历史学家：在16世纪的欧洲生活中，再洗礼派是独一无二的，因为他们相信“信徒的洗礼”，即成人的洗礼，但这真正象征的是一种理解，即做出基督教承诺并加入教会是你只能自愿做的事情。
Donald B.
唐纳德·B.
Kraybill, Sociologist: And that put them at odds with the state.

洗礼，成人洗礼是死罪，他们会得到相当于中世纪电椅的刑罚。
Two thousand to 3,000 died as martyrs.
两千至三千人殉难。
The government appointed Anabaptist hunters that would go out, looking for them, so they would hold services in caves, hold services in the woods at night, and basically became an underground movement.
政府任命重洗派猎人出去寻找他们，所以他们会在洞穴里举行仪式，晚上在树林里举行仪式，基本上变成了地下运动。
And that has really stayed in the DNA of Amish culture and Amish history.
这确实留在了阿米什文化和阿米什历史的 DNA 中。
It's not unlike slavery for African Americans.
这与非裔美国人的奴隶制没有什么不同。
It's not unlike the Holocaust for Jews.
这与犹太人的大屠杀没有什么不同。
So there's this sense of being a separated people, of being a minority people, of being cautious about what the outside world might do to you again.
因此，有一种作为一个孤立的民族、作为少数群体的感觉，对外界可能再次对你做的事情保持谨慎的感觉。
Karen M.
凯伦·M。

约翰逊-韦纳，人类学家：他们在我们的世界中，但他们不是我们世界的一部分。
They're in the world, but not of it.
他们存在于这个世界，但又不属于这个世界。
And that's what they want to be.
这就是他们想要的。
They are working together to actively live according to Christ's teachings.
他们共同努力，积极按照基督的教义生活。
And the majority of the world is not doing that.
而世界上大多数国家并没有这样做。
So the sense is that, "We are pilgrims passing through this world, on the way to the eternal world.
所以意思是，“我们是路过这个世界，走向永恒世界的朝圣者。
We don't get attached to this world; we don't get attached to the things of this world.
我们不执着于这个世界；我们不会执着于这个世界的事物。
We do our best, we try to serve God, and then we hope that will mean we are worthy of salvation."

我想我就是！”他很高兴我加入教会，而且——这也让我很高兴。
I tried to tell myself, you know, during the service that, "It's just any normal church, I don't have to be nervous." But if I let myself think about it, and think of every step, I kinda get nervous.
在礼拜期间，我试图告诉自己，“这只是任何正常的教堂，我不必紧张。”但如果我让自己思考，思考每一步，我就会有点紧张。
When I was kneeling down on the floor, I remember thinking my feet hurt because I was sitting on them.

And I'm still down on my knees, and then one of the ministers brings the bucket of water and cups their hands above my head, and he says, "I baptize you in the name of the father," and then they pour water, "Son," pours more, and then "the Holy Ghost." I remember thinking "Whoa, there's a lot of water in my lap!" And then I'm baptized, and then he helps me stand up and says, you know, now I'm a member of the church, and "You are no more a stranger, you're a sister in the church now." I just wanted to go...
我仍然跪着，然后一位牧师端来一桶水，双手捧在我头顶上，他说，“我奉父的名给你施洗，”然后他们倒水，“子”，倒更多，然后“圣灵”。我记得我当时想：“哇，我的腿上有很多水！”然后我受了洗，然后他扶我站起来说，你知道，现在我是教会的成员了，“你不再是陌生人，你现在是教会的姐妹了。”我只是想去...
flutter around and be happy, I guess.
我想，振作起来并感到高兴。

Home is the foundation for children to be taught about God and how to live, and to learn values and just everything that really goes with them later in life.

I think if we want to be a Christian and live a godly life, we have to be submissive.
我认为如果我们想成为基督徒并过敬虔的生活，我们就必须顺服。
I don't mean that I have to be doing all the work for everybody, or, you know, doing all the jobs nobody else wants to do, that's not what I'm talking about.
我并不是说我必须为每个人做所有的工作，或者，你知道，做所有其他人想做的工作，这不是我所说的。
You know, Jesus, when he was here on earth, he came and was a servant to mankind.
你知道，耶稣，当他在地球上时，他是人类的仆人。
And I think that's the example that he put forth for us.

我正在走路。
Yeah.
是的。
It's almost too personal to talk about.
这几乎太个人化了，无法谈论。
But there were some things that I had done that I knew weren't right, and I just remember crying out to God, and it just seemed like I was just flying.
但我做了一些我知道是不对的事情，我只记得向上帝呼喊，而我似乎只是在飞翔。
I could just...

Kraybill, Sociologist: I think the first 100 years, from the mid-18th- to the mid-19th century, the Amish felt more at home here.
社会学家克雷比尔：我认为从 18 世纪中叶到 19 世纪中叶的前 100 年，阿米什人在这里感到更加自在。
David Weaver-Zercher, Historian: Amish people shared a lot of lifestyle similarities with people who were not Amish.
历史学家 David Weaver-Zercher：阿米什人与非阿米什人有很多生活方式相似之处。
So they were living in a largely Pennsylvania German culture, where people spoke Pennsylvania German, or Pennsylvania Dutch.
因此，他们生活在很大程度上是宾夕法尼亚德国文化中，人们说宾夕法尼亚德语或宾夕法尼亚荷兰语。
They were farming, but many of their neighbors were farming.
他们在务农，但他们的许多邻居也在务农。
They were using horse drawn vehicles, but their neighbors were using horse drawn vehicles.
他们用的是马车，而他们的邻居也用的是马车。

唐纳德·B.
Kraybill, Sociologist: It was with the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, the fads and the fashions that were becoming available.
社会学家克雷比尔：随着工业革命的开始，时尚和时尚开始出现。
That's what troubled the Amish mind and troubled the Amish soul.
这就是困扰阿米什人思想和灵魂的问题。
The focus in the Amish society is on the community.
阿米什社会的重点是社区。
Always on the community.
始终关注社区。
In American life, the focus is on the individual.
在美国人的生活中，重点是个人。
Getting ahead, freedom of individual choice, making a name for yourself, self achievement.
出人头地、个人选择的自由、为自己出名、自我成就。
All of those are in direct opposition to key values of the Amish way of life.
所有这些都与阿米什生活方式的关键价值观背道而驰。
Humility, community, cooperation, putting yourself under the church, and the authority of the church.
谦卑、团体、合作、将自己置于教会和教会的权威之下。
And so that is the big wedge between these two different ways of life.
这就是这两种不同生活方式之间的最大分歧。
The first item of technology that created an issue was the telephone.
第一个引起问题的技术是电话。
Because if you have a phone and you can call, why visit?
因为如果您有电话并且可以打电话，为什么还要去拜访呢？
Why go and see the person?
为什么要去见那个人？
It connected them to the outside world.
它将他们与外部世界联系起来。
It meant that outsiders could come into their home, into their kitchen, via the telephone.
这意味着外人可以通过电话进入他们的家、进入他们的厨房。
Donald B.
唐纳德·B.
Kraybill, Sociologist: And that is a principal that the Amish have used with a lot of technological developments, to have some kind of a firewall between you and the technology, but yet use it and access it.
社会学家克雷比尔：这是阿米什人在许多技术发展中使用的原则，在你和技术之间建立某种防火墙，但仍然使用它并访问它。
The main core of Amish motivation is to keep the local church together.
阿米什人动机的主要核心是保持地方教会的团结。
If you give someone the keys to the car, they're going to go off to the city.
如果你给某人车钥匙，他们就会去城里。
Young people go off and get jobs.
年轻人出去寻找工作。
So to the Amish way of thinking, the car will fragment our community; it will splinter the community; it will pull us apart.
因此，按照阿米什人的思维方式，汽车将分裂我们的社区；它将分裂社区；它会让我们分开。
Archival [voice over]: Now electricity does the chores for the Farmer's wife.
档案[画外音]：现在电力为农夫的妻子做家务了。
David Weaver-Zercher, Historian: If a technology is necessary, then okay, that's one thing, but if it's making life more convenient and making life easier, that doesn't seem like a real good reason to get something.
David Weaver-Zercher，历史学家：如果一项技术是必要的，那么好吧，这是一回事，但如果它让生活变得更方便、让生活更轻松，那似乎就不是获得某种技术的真正充分理由。
In fact, working hard, and having our time taken up in labor, as opposed to leisure, that's probably the better way to err.
事实上，努力工作，把时间花在劳动上，而不是休闲上，这可能是更好的错误方式。
I think in the early 20th century there is a whole lot of thinking that industrialization and technology and progress are going to make lives easier, and make lives better.
我认为在 20 世纪初，人们普遍认为工业化、技术和进步将使生活变得更轻松、更美好。
For the Amish to dig in their heels when this promise of a better life is coming along, makes them quite strange.
对于阿米什人来说，当美好生活的承诺即将到来时，他们却坚持不懈，这让他们感到很奇怪。
Strange in the worst sorts of ways.
以最糟糕的方式来说很奇怪。
I think people saw their backwardness as an embarrassing part of American life.
我认为人们将自己的落后视为美国生活中令人尴尬的一部分。
By the 1920s and 1930s, the consensus is that we're probably seeing the last generation of people living like this.
到了 20 年代和 1930 年代，人们普遍认为我们可能会看到最后一代人过着这样的生活。
Gertrude Huntington, Anthropologist: I was studying at Yale, and I decided, maybe I can work on the Amish.
格特鲁德·亨廷顿，人类学家：我在耶鲁大学学习，我决定，也许我可以研究阿米什人。
My professors thought it would be good if I documented them before they died out.
我的教授们认为，如果我在它们消失之前将它们记录下来就好了。
Everybody I had interviewed had said only negative things about them.
我采访过的每个人都只说了一些负面的话。
It was just after World War II.
那是第二次世界大战刚刚结束。
They were pacifists, so they hadn't gone into the army.
他们是和平主义者，所以没有参军。
Their neighbors had lost sons in the war.
他们的邻居在战争中失去了儿子。
So they didn't like them because they didn't go to war.
所以他们不喜欢他们，因为他们没有参加战争。
They didn't like them because they didn't want paved roads.
他们不喜欢它们，因为他们不想要铺好的道路。
They didn't like them because they didn't want electricity.
他们不喜欢它们，因为他们不需要电。
And electricity was just coming into this rural area.
这个农村地区刚刚通电。
And they didn't like them because they didn't want telephones.
他们不喜欢它们，因为他们不想要电话。
And if your neighbors would get a telephone, it didn't cost you as much to have a telephone line in.
如果你的邻居有电话，你就不需要花那么多钱安装电话线。
And they wouldn't do that.
他们不会那样做。
So there was no reason to like them.
所以没有理由喜欢他们。

Kraybill, Sociologist: The Amish would say they are Americans.
社会学家克雷比尔：阿米什人会说他们是美国人。
They are citizens.
他们是公民。
They pay their taxes.
他们缴纳税款。
But they also keep the world at a distance.
但他们也与世界保持距离。
They see the world being based on force.
他们认为世界是基于武力的。
They see their church community being based on love and nonviolence and patience.
他们认为他们的教会社区是建立在爱、非暴力和耐心的基础上的。
Amish Man 5: I love this country.
阿米什人 5：我爱这个国家。
We have a country of great people.
我们有一个拥有伟大人民的国家。
But the kingdom of heaven comes first.
但天国是第一位的。
This trend in America, "Love America or leave it," you wave the flag.
美国的这种趋势，“要么爱美国，要么离开它”，你挥舞着旗帜。
The flag is fine, but we're the only nation in the world that worships the flag.
国旗很好，但我们是世界上唯一崇拜国旗的国家。
It's weird.
很奇怪。
It's very heathen.
这是非常异教徒的。
The kingdom we live in, we pledge our allegiance to God, and not the flag.
在我们生活的王国里，我们宣誓效忠的是上帝，而不是国旗。

Johnson-Weiner, Anthropologist: The Amish shape themselves by rejecting us.
约翰逊-韦纳，人类学家：阿米什人通过拒绝我们来塑造自己。

如果你是被拒绝的群体，那就很难回避。
I mean, they don't want to be like us.
我的意思是，他们不想像我们一样。

Jeffrey Miller, State Police Commissioner: When we landed there, and walked around the fence, the first thing I saw were the troopers that came to greet me.
州警察局长杰弗里·米勒：当我们降落在那里并绕过栅栏时，我首先看到的是前来迎接我的警察。
And some of them had blood all over their clothing...
有的人衣服上沾满了血……
Over their uniforms, so you knew that it was not going to be a good scene to survey.

And they were just breaking down the front door, and that's when the shooter looked and saw that the trooper was coming through the window, and was going to kill him.

受害者的母亲（阿米什妇女 3）：大约 11 点 15 分，我们才得知发生了什么事。
We didn't know if she's in a hospital somewhere.
我们不知道她是否在某处医院。
Or if she's at the school, because we knew there were some at the school that had died.
或者如果她在学校，因为我们知道学校里有一些人死了。
Those five hours were a very long time, to not know whether our daughter had survived or not.

Mother of Victim (Amish Woman 3): We were so ready to find out where she's at, if she survived, we just wanted to know.
受害者的母亲（阿米什妇女 3）：我们非常想知道她在哪里，如果她还活着，我们只是想知道。
The hardest part was coming home, and telling the ones at home that she's gone.

Dwight Lefever, Pastor to the Roberts Family: It was a very, very difficult place, and a very desperate place, and in the middle of that situation, eight, nine o'clock that evening, the Amish neighbor walked in.
德怀特·勒菲弗（Dwight Lefever），罗伯茨家族的牧师：那是一个非常非常困难的地方，也是一个非常绝望的地方，在这种情况下，那天晚上八点、九点，阿米什邻居走了进来。
And one of the things that I share with people who I've been able to talk with, that, in a sense, grace walked in the door.
我与那些与我交谈过的人分享的一件事是，从某种意义上说，恩典走进了门。
And with grace walking in the door, hope walked in the door.
随着恩典走进门，希望也走进门。
And we didn't know it at the time, but that's what happened, that was the effect of him coming, and saying, "Chuck --" specifically, Charlie's dad, "-- we will forgive you."
我们当时并不知道，但这就是发生的事情，这就是他过来的结果，并说：“查克——”特别是查理的爸爸，“——我们会原谅你。”
Mother of Victim (Amish Woman 3): To me, when I think of forgiving, it doesn't mean that you have forgotten what he's done.
受害者的母亲（阿米什妇女 3）：对我来说，当我想到宽恕时，并不意味着你已经忘记了他所做的事情。
But it means that you have released unto God the one who has offended you.
但这意味着你已经把冒犯你的人交给神了。
And you have given up your right to seek revenge.
而且你已经放弃了寻求报复的权利。
I place the situation in God's hands and just accept that this is the way it was.
我把情况交到上帝手中，并接受事实就是这样。
And I choose not to hold it against Charles because it really doesn't help me anything anyway .

Steven M.
史蒂文·M.
Nolt, Historian: Forgiveness requires giving something up, giving up your right to revenge, giving up feelings of bitterness, whatever you define it.
历史学家诺尔特：宽恕需要放弃一些东西，放弃你复仇的权利，放弃痛苦的感觉，无论你如何定义它。
For the Amish, that means that it is of a piece with so many other aspects of their life, because all of Amish life is structured around rituals of giving up, of self-surrender.
对于阿米什人来说，这意味着它与他们生活的许多其他方面息息相关，因为阿米什人的所有生活都是围绕放弃和自我投降的仪式构建的。
I think for many of the rest of us, forgiveness is a hard thing because we think it's unnatural, because it's so unlike anything else we do.
我认为对于我们其他许多人来说，宽恕是一件困难的事情，因为我们认为这是不自然的，因为它与我们所做的任何其他事情都非常不同。
We're all trained to never give up anything.
我们都受过训练，永不放弃任何事情。
For Amish people, it's hard, but it's not unnatural.
对于阿米什人来说，这很难，但并不不自然。
Mother of Victim (Amish Woman 3): Obviously, sometimes we would like to say to God, "you made a mistake!" But we're taught that God doesn't make mistakes.
受害者的母亲（阿米什女人3）：显然，有时我们想对上帝说：“你犯了一个错误！”但我们被教导上帝不会犯错误。
It's a form of humbleness, in realizing that God is supreme, he's much bigger than us.
这是谦卑的一种形式，认识到上帝是至高无上的，他比我们伟大得多。
I sometimes think of it, as my soul, my soul is kneeling before God.
我有时会想，就像我的灵魂，我的灵魂跪在上帝面前。
I might be working.
我可能正在工作。
I might be washing dishes, but my soul is kneeling before God, and saying, "Thy will be done." I cry.

Here's the file, go do it." And I'm like, "What?" So I had the file, I drove up to Morristown, and I met with a young man up there, his name was Andy Miller.
文件在这儿，你去办吧。”我想，“什么？”所以我拿到了文件，我开车去了莫里斯敦，在那里我遇到了一个年轻人，他的名字叫安迪·米勒。

Steven Ballan，助理公设辩护律师：我把车停到法院，发现到处都有 50 辆马车和马车。
I went inside, and there was no room in the courtroom.
我进去了，法庭里已经没有地方了。
News Anchor [archival]: Old time beliefs met modern laws at the Morristown municipal building Thursday, more than 75 members of a nearby Amish community came out for a case about building permits.
新闻主播[档案]：周四，在莫里斯敦市政大楼，古老的信仰与现代法律相遇，附近阿米什社区的超过 75 名成员站出来处理有关建筑许可的案件。

阿米什社区表示，这些要求侵犯了他们的宗教自由。
Town officials say some members of the Amish community...
镇官员说阿米什社区的一些成员......

Johnson-Weiner, Anthropologist: There are a number of aspects of the building code that are problematic.
人类学家约翰逊-韦纳：建筑规范的许多方面都存在问题。
The need for smoke detectors and now carbon monoxide detectors.
需要烟雾探测器和现在的一氧化碳探测器。
That's putting your faith in a manmade device instead of God.
这就是把你的信心放在人造装置而不是上帝身上。
What God wants to happen will happen.
神想要发生的事情就会发生。
The Amish are building their homes according to way their Ordnung says they have to build.
阿米什人正在按照他们的法令规定的方式建造他们的房屋。
If, heaven forbid, a fire comes, sweeps through the house and something terrible happens, the child will be in a better place, the people will be in a better place, they'll be with God.

In a very real way because everything they do is guided by their Ordnung , by their beliefs.

In a way they're always in church.
在某种程度上，他们总是在教堂里。
Steven Ballan, Assistant Public Defender: We're not talking about a religion that was created yesterday, to do something that is considered illegal.
史蒂文·巴兰（Steven Ballan），助理公设辩护律师：我们谈论的不是昨天创建的宗教，它是为了做一些被认为是非法的事情。
We're talking about a religion that's been in existence, and then the law changed, to make the way they live illegal.
我们谈论的是一种已经存在的宗教，然后法律改变了，使他们的生活方式变得非法。
And I think that our country is built on a foundation that says that they should continue to be allowed to practice their religion.
我认为我们国家的基础是应该继续允许他们信奉自己的宗教。
Karen M.
凯伦·M。
Johnson-Weiner, Anthropologist: For the Amish, there's this real sense that persecution comes as a kind of test of the faith.
约翰逊-韦纳，人类学家：对于阿米什人来说，迫害是对信仰的一种考验。
The world wants us to change, but as long as we stick to the ways of our our forefathers -- God's truth hasn't changed if we stick to our forefathers' ways, then we haven't changed either, and we're not drifting, and the church remains strong.
世界希望我们改变，但只要我们坚持我们祖先的方式——神的真理就没有改变，如果我们坚持我们祖先的方式，那么我们也没有改变，我们没有随波逐流，教会仍然坚强。

Johnson-Weiner, Anthropologist: And that's what you go through the eight grades to get.
约翰逊-韦纳，人类学家：这就是你通过八个等级才能得到的。
The book learning is important, the schooling is important, but it's values that you get at home working with your parents that's the most important.
书本学习很重要，学校教育也很重要，但最重要的是你在家与父母一起工作时获得的价值观。
Donald B.
唐纳德·B.
Kraybill, Sociologist: They worried that if they sent their children to the public high school, the children would become individualistic, they would be exposed to outside ideas, they would leave the church, they would pursue other occupations.
社会学家克雷比尔：他们担心如果把孩子送到公立高中，孩子会变得个人主义，他们会接触到外界的想法，他们会离开教会，他们会追求其他职业。
Amish elders worried that it would lead to the demise of their church.
阿米什长老担心这会导致他们教会的消亡。
Karen M.
凯伦·M。
Johnson-Weiner, Anthropologist: One of the local civil authorities, secular leaders, was saying, "Schools needed to prepare children for the world." And the Amish comment was "Which world?
约翰逊-韦纳，人类学家：一位当地民政当局、世俗领袖说，“学校需要为孩子们走向世界做好准备。”阿米什人的评论是“哪个世界？
Not this one.

This one is temporary."

Man leading the trial [archival]: You are charged with failing, on the 9th day of March, 1960 to send your child or children to a day school, whose subjects and activities are prescribed by the state council of education commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in violation of section 1327 of the school code.
主导审判的男子[档案]：您被指控在 1960 年 3 月 9 日未能将您的一个或多个孩子送入日间学校，该学校的科目和活动由宾夕法尼亚州教育联邦委员会规定，违反了学校法规第 1327 条。

凯伦·M。
Johnson-Weiner, Anthropologist: The world is persecuting us again, the world wants us to change.
约翰逊-韦纳，人类学家：世界再次迫害我们，世界希望我们改变。
This change is not our faith, it's not how we should be doing things if we are to be "good Christians." And so, you go to jail.
这种改变不是我们的信仰，如果我们要成为“好基督徒”，这不是我们应该做的事情。所以，你进了监狱。
David Weaver-Zercher, Historian: There was a lot of coverage in the New York Times and some other national publications, where the Amish became associated with the one-room schoolhouse.
David Weaver-Zercher，历史学家：《纽约时报》和其他一些国家出版物有很多报道，阿米什人与单间校舍联系在一起。
Even as it was disappearing, and perhaps in part, because it was disappearing, it held a very nostalgic draw on other Americans.
即使它正在消失，也许部分是因为它正在消失，它仍然对其他美国人产生了非常怀旧的吸引力。
This one-room school where all the children knew one another well, and where there was one teacher that loved her children, and not only taught them math, but taught them values.
在这所只有一间教室的学校里，所有的孩子都彼此熟悉，并且有一位老师爱她的孩子，不仅教他们数学，还教他们价值观。
The Amish defending the one-room school really struck a chord with some Americans.
阿米什人捍卫一间教室的学校确实引起了一些美国人的共鸣。
And from that point on, there's a much more sympathetic edge to the way the Amish were portrayed and talked about.
从那时起，人们对阿米什人的描述和谈论方式就变得更加富有同情心。
People praise the Amish, for their self-sufficiency, for the way that even in the Depression they were able to were able to survive on the land, kind of a Jeffersonian sort of celebration of who the Amish are.
人们赞扬阿米什人的自给自足，赞扬他们即使在大萧条时期也能够在这片土地上生存，这有点像杰斐逊式的对阿米什人的庆祝。
And that doesn't entirely displace people's panning of Amish life as hopelessly backwards, but it becomes a much more prominent theme from the 1930s forward -- that the Amish represent something true and virtuous about American life that some others of us have lost.
这并不能完全取代人们对阿米什人生活的绝望倒退，但从 20 世纪 30 年代开始，它成为一个更加突出的主题——阿米什人代表了美国生活中一些真实而高尚的东西，而我们其他一些人已经失去了这些东西。

Huntington, Anthropologist: I really thought education was important.
亨廷顿，人类学家：我真的认为教育很重要。
And the fact that they only went to eighth grade, I thought was such a shame and too bad.
事实上，他们只上了八年级，我认为这真是太可惜了。
One day I was visiting one of the leaders of the community, and I said, "You know, I really am upset that you don't go to high school and that you don't let your children go on, even when they want to." And he said to me, "You see that field out there?
有一天，我拜访了社区的一位领导，我说：“你知道，我真的很沮丧，因为你没有上高中，也不让你的孩子继续上学，即使他们想上学。”他对我说：“你看到外面那片田地了吗？

That's not at the heart of the teaching about shunning, but it is something that happens in some cases, because the pain on both sides can be so intense that it takes that form.

Amish Woman 4: My mom was a very gentle soul.

She was always a servant to everybody else.
她始终是其他人的仆人。
She always made sure everybody was taken care of, except mom.
她总是确保每个人都得到照顾，除了妈妈。
She always tried to be the submissive woman.
她总是试图成为一个顺从的女人。
And already then I wasn't sure about that word "submissive." And then I married an abuser, and then the word "submission" just became a monster.

I talked to my husband, and he'd say, "We're married, and I'm the head of the house." I'd say, "You know, the Bible says the father is the head of the home as Christ is the head of the church.
我和我丈夫谈过，他会说：“我们结婚了，我是一家之主。”我会说：“你知道，圣经说父亲是一家之主，就像基督是教会的头一样。
But we also need to remember that Christ was not up here like a master with a big whip." Well, that didn't work well, because I was confronting him, and I was doubting his words of wisdom.
但我们也需要记住，基督并不是像一个拿着大鞭子的主人一样。”嗯，这效果不太好，因为我在面对他，我怀疑他的智慧之言。
I soon learned not to say those things.

They always say that we need to go to the church first, which I did.

I went to the church and I asked for help.
我去了教堂寻求帮助。
The very first thing that the minister said to me when I said, "We've been struggling with a lot of abuse, and I need help," he looked at me and he said, "So what did you do that caused your husband to treat you this way?" That was such a blow.
当我说“我们一直在与很多虐待作斗争，我需要帮助”时，部长对我说的第一句话是，他看着我说，“那么你做了什么导致你丈夫这样对待你呢？”那真是一个打击。
That was such a blow.
那真是一个打击。
In fact it came to the point where the church actually had both of us not be able to go to communion until we can see where we have failed.
事实上，教会实际上让我们俩都无法参加圣餐，直到我们看到我们失败的地方。
And I felt like an outsider looking in.

I've just had it, Lord.
我刚刚受过，主啊。
I don't know what to do.

But I have to be connected with the church again." I told my husband, "I'm going to go back to the ministers, and I'm just going to lay myself out and say, 'Here I am.
但我必须再次与教会取得联系。”我告诉我的丈夫，“我要回到部长们那里，我只是要躺下来说，‘我在这里。
I'll take any punishment you give me.
你给我的任何惩罚我都会接受。
I'll do anything.
我会做任何事。
I just need -- I need the church so bad.'" And he said, "Well, if you do, you're on your own because I'm not going to do it that way." And so that's what I did.
我只是需要——我非常需要教会。’”他说，“好吧，如果你这样做，你就得靠你自己了，因为我不会那样做。”这就是我所做的。
I went back to the ministers, and I just cried, and I just said, "I'll just do anything you tell me to." I acknowledged anything and everything that I could think of under the sun.
我回到部长们那里，我只是哭了，我只是说：“我会做你们告诉我的任何事情。”我承认天底下我能想到的一切。
And yeah, say yes to things that I didn't really think were maybe exactly right to say yes to.
是的，对那些我认为不太合适的事情说“是”。
But I did it out of obedience because I felt God nudging me that way.
但我这样做是出于服从，因为我感觉到上帝在这样推动我。

Kraybill, Sociologist: I think the move off of the farm into small businesses, into working in outside "English" factories has been the most significant, the most consequential change since they came to North America.
社会学家克雷比尔：我认为，离开农场进入小企业、在“英国”之外的工厂工作是他们来到北美以来最重要、影响最深远的变化。
It touches how they think, it touches how much technology they use, it exposes them to outside ideas, it exposes them to the larger world, it exposes their children to many things.
它涉及他们的思维方式，涉及他们使用多少技术，它让他们接触外部想法，它让他们接触更大的世界，它让他们的孩子接触很多东西。
And how that plays out over two or three generations, I think, is a major issue that we don't know the outcome of that yet.
我认为，这种情况如何在两到三代人的时间里发挥作用，是一个我们还不知道结果的重大问题。
