“First of all I am NOT advocating breaking the law. I all my comments are in a scenario that there is no law.”
Then your comments are in the wrong thread
“Make no mistake, this has nothing to do with upholding the law. It is about using the law to get what they want.”
I don’t know what this means.
The law requires Elementary schools teach (at least) math/English. Satmar does not. Therefore Satmar is violating the law. You cant blame parents for wanting their school to educate their cildren as required by law.
Arguing that Satmar has the right to not educate the children, is arguing that they dont have to follow the law.
I’m not sure why this is complicated.
Of course it has nothing to do with some virtuos “upholding of the law” I specifically said so.
you can argue that, I have no problem with that. Satmar is against education they want to prevent kids from getting education I completely get that. But be clear with what you are defending .
“the same with a school. You may have a legal right to register a complaint, I won’t venture an opinion on the Halachic right to report to the govt as I am not a halachic authority, but in my opinion,given the options in schooling, no moral right.”
would you say the same for suing a school that refuses to install a ramp/elevator for a child in a wheelchair? (Like you setting aside very real halachic concerns, or “suing” in beis din) does a parent have a moral right to demand their child get access to school or should they just choose another school?
