The difference is Mennonites do this out of their undertanding of Scripture going back to their founding in Germany(1500 something)...not some sort of perceived injustice at the hands of slave traders yada yada...and there are so few Mennonites that it really won’t make much difference...but these yahoos like the guy said would not be making 119 million like Kapernic are spoiled rich kids...You hear some of these guys interviewed I doubt they have comprehension above the fifth grad....some of them would be lucky to GET a job at McDonalds...imho

I submit that they do it out of their misunderstanding of Scripture, which has led them to make it a legalistic requisite of faith.

Now seeing Menno Simon’s cult as leftist in mentality, it is no longer a surprise to me that the congregation with which I was once affiliated had an ex-navy man as assistant pastor, and a homicide detective (complete with lethal weapon) as a church deacon - hypocrite, thy name is leftist - all the while they required new members to adopt a pacifistic way of life.
