No one ever really thinks about this aspect of Amish life, but what happens to the gay and lesbian Amish? Do they have to excommunicate?

They are excommunicated if they act upon their desires. Not for being gay but for fornication - the same as a non-gay couple who have sex outside of marriage would be excommunicated.

The problem with excomunication is that very often those doing the excomunicating take it beyond the scriptural bounds and into the realm of personal vendetta.
