The inherent arrogance and insensibility of someone OUTSIDE of Modern Orthodoxy determining its problems and offering its solutions illustrates perhaps a more important problem: The increasing irrelevance of the “assumed leadership” of that element of Chareidi society which insists on telling others what to do and how to do it as if there were not shivim ponim l’Torah.
The day will come when Modern Orthodoxy will stop looking over its right shoulder. And then there will be a reckoning with those who will take a cheque from an MO donor but not let him daven at the Omud in their mosdos and kehilos.
A Far better thing to do than issuing circular arguments is to find those areas of common purpose and common action – and there are many – and build upon them.
