Orthodox Criticism
While Orthodox Judaism and Conservative Judaism regard Reform Jews who are matrilineally descended as Jews, they do not recognize people who are Jewish by Reform conversions nor Reform's acceptance of patrilineal descent of Jewish children. A growing number of Reform Jews are not Jewish according to traditional halakha.

Famous quotes containing the words orthodox and/or criticism:
“All orthodox opinion—that is, today, “revolutionary” opinion either of the pure or the impure variety—is anti-man.”
—Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)
“Cubism had been an analysis of the object and an attempt to put it before us in its totality; both as analysis and as synthesis, it was a criticism of appearance. Surrealism transmuted the object, and suddenly a canvas became an apparition: a new figuration, a real transfiguration.”
—Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
