It is difficult to leave because their education fails to prepare them for the outside world. There are also social punishments for people who decide to leave. It is difficult to leave and Amish society creates that difficulty.

Christians have been deceived in that they have mistaken the ethos of their specific church for the logos of the real world. Rational philosophy should align with the way the world works. If dishonesty necessary to maintain the culture it is false.

Monotheistic religions are designed to enhance group cohesion and raise birthrates of its followers. From an evolutionary stand point they are superiour to groups with moralic relativism and lower social cohesion. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrsQY9Bw-kk
Money is a better monotheistic god because it still works even when everyone knows it's a shared idea and it enables greater group cohesion on large scales.
Money is a broader but lower resolution God. BitCoin is a more illuminated form of this which is good but subjective variations create externalities within the network. Religions are efficient solutions to the boundaries of collective value.
Why do you think that? I could just kill you and take your money. There's no moral foundation behind money. If I am smart enough to not get caught, my social status would rise. Group cohesion would decline.
I have already explained why I think that in the twetch you are responding to. You can also attempt to use nefarious means to gain social status as a christian.
