“Seeing as everyone is all into proving things ad absurdum, what is the halachic source that tradition is never enough.”
Why is it absurd to ask for the halachic source for something that is ingrained in tradition?
“Well, I think you came across as more of a troll this way.”
Although this is my first post, I have long been a lurker here. So I actually have a good deal of respect for you. That being said, I am not sure where you are coming from in this case. I assumed the position which is held here and almost everywhere (orthodox) and respectfully asked why it is the case and then thanked people both before and after they responded. I don’t really know that there was a better to do it. But if you feel that there was, I apologize.
AllThatGlittersParticipant“Your question assumes something to be true and then asks for the basis. “
True.
Ill be honest, i phased it that way because I know where I am posting this and it was my 1st post so I did not want to come across as combative or “trolling”
AllThatGlittersParticipantThanks for the responses, especially to gavra_at_work.
AllThatGlittersParticipant“Tradition is a sufficient answer to your question. Even if there are more reasons, tradition alone suffices. “
That answer misunderstands the question. The question was not, “may I attend an egalitarian minyan?” If it was, then your response may well suffice as an appropriate answer.
But the question was/is
What is the halachic reason(s) that
a) A woman may not be counted for a minyan
b) A woman may not lead a minyan
