Ok theres a religion where the people don't drive,and dont use electronics. The women and girls wear long skirts and what resembles a coffee filter on top of a bun on the back of their head. What is the religion/what are the people called?

Sounds like Dutch Reformers or Mormons! Don't forget the wooden shoes too! Normal Dutch in Holland are not weirdos like this- they are modern like most up to date countries in the world, but certain sects, like the ones in Chilliwack, Canada go back in time and use certain bible passages as an excuse to call TV a sin while it's okay to practise Evangelistic practises and sin all the time (like wife swapping and swinging!!). They even get away with land deals and other negligent practises that destroy other peoples' lives in the process! I'm sure they could even do drugs, join the police force, and hack into peoples' computers and that's okay as long as they go to church! That's why I wish I was in Australia instead! Canada may be considered one of the best countries in the world under all kinds of categories and criteria, but, right now, I would rather live somewhere else- even the USA! Maybe I should have been born in Texas!!
