Amazing how powerful fear of the outside world can be. Which, if you think about it, that's exactly what it was. They feared religious persecution, so they hid themselves away...(And who can blame them?). Just as the Japanese soldiers, that Ice mentioned, feared being discovered by enemy soldiers.
Which makes the comparison with the Amish kind of awkward. The eschew modern technology and modern ways........but they don't hide.
Regard,
Dave
