ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa. — Why have the Amish survived? Cory Anderson says it boils down to one word: babies.
Anderson, a member of a Beachy Amish Mennonite church and a doctoral candidate in rural sociology at Ohio State University, addressed a room full of Amish Mennonites at Elizabethtown College’s Young Center for Anabaptist and Pietist Studies on March 20.
