Some followers of a Dutch Anabaptist prophet, back at the time of the breakings between European catholics, are non violents and deeply faithful, always in search of a coherent life between doctrine and everyday life. The mennonites, in name of Menno the Prophet, realized for five centuries various migrations, by creating colonies in the two Americas, many timeskeeping a traditionalist life style, almost denying a whole world, in general keeping an archaic german language. In Latin America the strongest experience is the one of Filadelfia, created at the beginning of the XX century in the North- East of Paraguay, in an inhospitable area named Chaco. Now Filadelfia is a city with a quiet rich economy based on the earnings and the
transformations of the zootechnical products, the confidence, the cooperativism and the Mennonite life style created a pleasant place, with something of Central Europe, in the middle of a shrubs desert. Here as well, the Mennonite doctrine had to come to terms with the modern world; of the various colonies of the area, some have a very traditionalist life structuring; others have adapted the religious principles to the new millenium by creating a union between avant-garde technology and life in compliance with the ethnic and the religious tradition.
