There is a whole spectrum to Mennonite modernness. Some will use
trucks as they are useful tools but not passenger vehicles as they
are frivolous luxuries. They do not reject all modern technology but
rather use it in a controlled manner to live consistently with their
value beliefs. So they will ride in trains or airplanes if there is
need, according to their own values, to travel a great distance.

But many remain clueless and so do their Moms!

That too is sorely lacking and should be mandatory.
