Ask Us Query: |
| When ones children are out in the world with all sorts of people at school and at work and play, how is a parent supposed to defend Judaism against missionareies and basic human goodwill when Orthodox Rabbis accept the essential christian storyline as true (without the fantastic elements of course). I feel that Jews with or without a Yeshiva education are being shortchanged by rabbinical expediency which against all modern liberal scholarship on the subject which call into question traditional christianity, that it is bascially fiction at its source. It is as if we never left the Shetl. Please comment. |

| the bottom line is that our children need a strong jewish education. We are sadly raising a generation of Jewish illiterates and even those who go to yeshiva often memorize answers for tests but do not have a great enough understanding of who we are. We need to inspire our children and parents cannot do this if they, themselves do not live with inspiration, dedication to mitzvot, and true education and understanding of Judaism.
best,
