    There are three or four different subgroups, called leuts among the Hutterites. They are quite different from each other in terms of openness and strictness. The Forest River Colony is one of the most open and welcoming colonies and has suffered some controversies as a result. They seem to continue to thrive however.

    I am a truck driver and I make about 1 or 2 trips a week to Forest River. The funny thing is the local folks in town do not know how to pronouce the Hutterite name. They call them Hooterites. This never happens in Canada, but in the States they seem a bit clued out. Thanks for the nice video about Hutterite life. These folks live a very nice lifestyle.

    They have separate living quarters for the unmarried adults on the colony. The women in one space and the men in another. It's a little bit like a dormitory, but as I recall each person had a bit more private living space than you'd expect in a typical dormitory. I was not on the colony long enough to get a real full sense of what it was like to live single on a colony, but I do know they make a place for them in the society.

    I have got quite a good impression of and developed respect for these folks through several documentaries (over years and years). But recently I watched a few documentaries/videos here on KZread and have seen a few examples that really makes me sad and worried when it comes to the view the Hutterites have when it comes to animals. I am worried for the welfare of their animals! Amongst others, I got really upset when I saw how adults and young children treated live birds/poultry. They came (into the picture/i age), carrying them by their feet, upside down and scared and threw them roughly (violently, I think) out, through an opening or door, as I remember it. It was very, very rough and no doubt caused the birds discomfort, as they were swung forward and around, from being upside down to being on their feet again. Horrible way to handle living beings! One episode that really made me worried, was how a young girl (8-10 year old, maybe, not entirely sure), acted. She was walking, when she obviously thought a dog was too close (the dog did nothing wrong, did not display any wrong or scary behavior). She hit the dog with two buckets she carried. She then, after walking a few steps, turned around and swung the buckets towards the dog again to hit it, but luckily the dog managed to avoid the hit, which would have been a hard and potentially really harmful/painful one. It is very worrysome when such a young child obviously has no empathy for an animal and even more worrysome that nobody around her reacts when she is violent towards an innocent animal who has done nothing to warrant any kind of rough reaction. That nobody reacts, suggests that it is a common behavior towards colony dogs. Had a child, amongst other children, done that most places, there would no doubt be prompt and loud protests, telling the child who did it that doing so is wrong, after the first time she did it. No doubt, because most places, kids and adults alike, have been taught to treat dogs and other animals with love and empathy. They know that dogs have feelings, just like we do and that being mean to them will cause them pain and make them feel sad, just like we would feel, if someone treated us badly - so they would never do something like that to a dog.

    In any human society there are good things and not so good things. In a documentary video, it's easy to make a community look worse than it is (or better than it is) by picking and choosing only those elements that fit your agenda. Or you can go in with the goal of a fair and honest portrayal including the good and the bad. It's all up to the video creator. Caveat video watcher.

    Way back in New Testament times, Christians abandoned those "works of the [Mosaic] law" along with other works of the law such as circumcision and the Jewish festivals almost as soon as we began to receive gentile converts. A little later, we replaced the Jews' predominantly lunar calendar with the Julian solar calendar of the Greeks and Romans (which most sects replaced with the Gregorian solar calendar in recent centuries, although many eastern churches still follow the Juian), and we replaced the Mosaic marital customs which permitted second and even first cousin marriages and uncle-niece marriages and polygamy with the more restrictive marital customs of the Greeks. These matters are all closely tied to ritual matters and have always been regarded by Christians as being in a different category from laws that are strictly ethical in nature.

    I grew up in a Holiness Pentecostal Church and they teach exactly what the Hutterites are taught. The only exception is the communal living but the church brought together its resources as if there was communal living. I think I would prefer the communal living. I am commenting because I think it's odd that people are shocked to see this type of lifestyle but the Bible teaches this is supposed to be the way the church lives so for all the churches that do not adhere to True Biblical teaching, they are not obedient to God. You cannot call yourself a follower of Christ if you are not literally a follower of Christ. The Bible says that there are many deceivers and those deceivers will continue to deceive others. The deceivers are those in the world who claim that they are part of the church yet God says to come out from amongst the world and be ye a separated people! The reason salvation was offered to the non-jewish world is because God wanted the Jews to be a separated people unto him but they kept falling into worldliness and so when he sent his son Jesus he did not erase his holy word but his word came to non-jewish people so that Christ gave birth to believers that would now be called The Church! If a church teaches that the Old testament is of no value then that church is not a church because the same God of the Old testament is the same God of the New testament there is only one God. I can't wait to go visit some hutterite communities. I had no idea that there were people out there who had the same anabaptist heritage as myself but were actually adhering to the gospel! I want to live with the Hutterites! Obviously I cannot go by the name hutterite because that was the name of a man but I will go by the name Christian because the Bible says they were first called Christian in Antioch. It's possible to be a Christian and express your love through the hutterite lifestyle but it's not possible to be a hutterite before Christian because Christ is the only one that we are a spouse to and his name has to be preeminent. There are multiple expressions of worship as there are many members within the body but if any reject the written word of God, they are deceived and they are deceiving others who are deceived.

When I was there they had a young woman (from Tennessee originally) who was living on the colony, who had had quite a checkered past and came to the colony as a way to get a fresh and stable start on her life. Also, if I remember correctly, you don't *have* to be a member of the church to live there, though I'm sure they would prefer that. If you are seriously interested in that, I would contact them and have a conversation about it.

I'm part of a Hare Krishna community and we also believe certain things. I don't feel oppressed, because I know I made those choices myself with a certain goal in mind. Should that goal change - which it hasn't over the past 39 years - my choices might change and I have the freedom to do so. I have felt more oppressed by society telling me that I should choose to have a career and be an independent woman than I have felt within my community living with the choices I've made.

    Not being oppressed and having equal rights and opportunities are different are they? It’s a fine line being raised to think cleaning cooking and child care is your roles if your a woman whilst working as a farmer being the head preacher or elder deciding what happens etc your role as a man. This is a very outdated way of living, if you want a different life you have to leave and aren’t able to come back unless it’s approved by the elders. So ok it be nice for some especially men to be in charge but it supports the notion that men and women aren’t equal should have different roles and sorry but if that’s not oppression I don’t know what is. When you raised to say don’t question it’s not good. . Not to mention battery farming where is that in the bible be cruel to animals? Give me Buddhism anyway

    What only truly matters is salvation in Jesus Christ and the Hutterites will never reach heaven's door believing works will save them. In God’s Holy Word, the Bible, God offers us eternal life in heaven through us placing our trust in His Son, Jesus Christ. Christ died on a tree, shedding His blood for your wrong conduct and mine (John 3:16 and Roman 3:23-26), and came back to life-being raised from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:3-7). Jesus Christ now lives eternally in heaven, as true Christians will one day. In heaven, Christians will be set free from all sin, pain and sorrow-this resulting in unending joy. Christians still sin here on the earth and need to ask forgiveness when they act wrongly (1 John 1:9). However, obedient Christians are no longer held in sin’s slavery (Romans 6:5-6). God does ask that you count the cost before you choose to follow Christ and become a Christian. God does change desires and behavior, and you can lose friends as you strive to please a righteous and holy God. You can be terribly mistreated and hated for loving Him. If you desire the free gift of salvation and understand the cost of rejection, you can simply say, “Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to forgive my sins (all wrong conduct) and I ask Christ to take control of my life. I ask this in Christ’s name.” By saying this sincerely and honestly, you can be assured of eternal life, a purpose on this earth and deliverance from fiery hell. Jesus Christ knows if you sincerely want to turn from your sin to serve Him. God forgives all your wrong actions, not just some. You cannot out-sin God's forgiveness. Christ shed His precious blood for every sin committed. Prayer is simply talking to God as you would a friend, but always in a respectful manner. He is God in one, yet in three persons-the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit who enters a person to change them when they accept Christ as their deliverer from sin. Christians pray to the Father as the Bible commands and He hears them when they ask for anything in Jesus’ name that is within His will (John 16:23). As an example of talking to God on a regular basis when you become a believer, you can say, Heavenly Father, I ask this, or I give thanks for this, or I ask forgiveness for this-all stated in gratitude and in acknowledgment of His Son, Christ Jesus (1 John 5: 10-13, Ephesians 3:14-21, Colossians 1:9-14, etc.). You can learn about Christ by reading the Gospel of John in the Bible. You can read a chapter a day. If you ask God to rule your life, you will obtain a desire to read more and more of the New Testament, and you will want to attend a Bible teaching church. If you do not believe God even exists, you can simply say, “God could you reveal your love to me so I can believe.” You must also understand, the Bible says we are saved by grace and not of works least anyone should boast. Christ paid it all and no one is good enough for heaven and this is why Christ came to earth and died.
