Why do they bring shoes into a place of worship, I mean how can one walk on shit in the same shoes and then pray to God in a similar dirty disrespectful manner...coming back to the point on Mennonite organizational acumen, the world has more than 7 billion people now, unless you are looking forward to an Armageddon, we have to involve all in order to move forward and therefore to me Islam seems to be the best choice because it has (despite some of its adherents turning out to be a big disappointment) managed to get people of all regions/races/ethnicities/languages together on a singular platform, this allows it is to define the evil in modern society and yet continue to successfully keep a large majority of its adherents out of that evil loop while continuing to be productive members of that particular society.
Mennonites by virtue of being a radical homogenous Christian community have been left with no choice but to either assimilate into the broader modern evil phenomenon created by their own other Christian counterparts or seclude themselves into a life of rural oblivion...and that cannot be a good thing for this word called “ORGANIZATION”.
