Orthopraxy

Hey, I'm giving some thought to starting an Orthoprax shul in northern NJ. If anyone is interested or has ideas about candidates for rabbi, please comment. Thanks!

  1. Awesome! Now we have a shul where we can set up kiddush during musaf without angry looks, where davening will take no more than an hour and half on Shabbos...

    How good is the health plan?

  2. Dude, I don't know who you are but you just don't get Orthopraxy. The shul would be completely halachic and would not stand for that kind of chicanery. People who don't want to take davening seriously can find plenty of mainstream Orthodox shuls to daven in. Jews who want a more flexible approach to halacha can go conservative. I suppose part of the beauty of Orthopraxy is that nobody really gets it, so they don't know what to be afraid of.

  3. Sorry to be such a cynic, but if a shul is judged by its members and not its rabbi, then 80% of shuls I've davened in are Orthopraxy.
