This is true. I don't think it is a coincidence that most of the religious groups I mentioned (Amish, Mennonites, Hutterites, and Haredi) have a very cautious stance toward new technology. Whether they can keep it up indefinitely is another question, though the Amish have been outbreeding the surrounding civilization at a 12x rate for about 100 years, during which most of what we call modern life was invented (mass personal transportation, most recreational drugs, TV, the Internet, mobile phones, etc.).
