Partnership Minyan - Objections To Partnership Minyanim - Orthodox Objections

Orthodox Objections

A number of objections have been raised to various aspects of partnership minyanim, and to the view that their practices are not consistent with halakha (Jewish law). Critics have argued that their claims to be a practice within Orthodox Judaism are illegitimate.

Famous quotes containing the words orthodox and/or objections:

    If the jests that you crack have an orthodox smack,
    You may get a bland smile from these sages;
    But should it, by chance, be imported from France,
    Half-a-crown is stopped out of your wages!
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    Miss Western: Tell me, child, what objections can you have to the young gentleman?
    Sophie: A very solid objection, in my opinion. I hate him.
    Miss Western: Well, I have known many couples who have entirely disliked each other, lead very comfortable, genteel lives.
    John Osborne (1929–1994)
