Excellent.

Now, if these things you describe are indeed assur, then I don’t think anyone who really is a BT would do them. As I previously stated, the term BT is usually used to describe someone who keeps halacha.

I am really not convinced that all of them are assur.

1. You are allowed to attend a conservative wedding.

2. I don’t know if you can attend an intermarriage, (but again, let’s assume the BT will follow halacha).

3. One cannot daven in a conservative temple, but BTs don’t attend their non-frum family’s temple.

4. One is allowed to eat kosher food in a house where not kosher food is eaten.

5. I am not aware that it is assur to invite a relative to a simcha if they will dress untznius. In any event, the relatives are usually willing to “do in Rome”.

Why do you assume that BTs will do things which are assur?

What do you picture when you think BT?

I am finding this discussion somewhat troubling.
