And staying locked in your cocoon, unwilling, or unable to see how time is not standing still, while you stay convinced that your way is still a good venue in terms of building the next generation of yiddishkeit is equally as hurtful.
Need I remind you, BE was MY SHUL. And when it became clear that to stay, was to pretty much guarrantee that my kids would never daven with me, we (meaning, me and my father) left.
I lost a whole slew of friends to the plastic Judaism BE was famous for in the 70s. So yes, I think I have a right to speak on its behalf.
See you on Shabbos!
