Great discussion, Blade! I loved the point that Jewish Law stopped when the Romans killed off the Sanhedrin, and that since then, everything is just opinion. That is a major detail that justifies everything we do differently than the Orthodox movements. Ultimately, Conservatives reject the opinions of the Orthodox, in many areas. We’re not rejecting Jewish Law, as the Orthodox communities tend to believe.
Very informative and great explanation of not only the conservative movement but also a compare/contrast with reform and orthodoxy. I think the most important thing you stated was the question of… where are you going? Judging others brings no one closer to Hashem. Blessings to you Blade. Thank you!
That's such a deep and great talk. I'm french sefarad living in city there's only one synagogue that follow 'consistoire" way (kind of orthodoxy but less radical), but I'm following masorti rules and approach. What you describe about the dogmatism of reformed and the permanent change on orthoxed mvt is deeply true and can be extend to all ideology, religion, thinking movement. Each time you'll find these 2 patterns : reformists/revolutionnaries that became dogmatics and ultra conservative about the changes they made AND conservatives/orthodoxed/reactionaires that actually changed everything in the name of the tradition. As jews we beleive humanity as the freedom to choose and so the freedom to think. Since the end of the temple, we also all beleive that the divine retracts on himself and give space to humanity to work on its coninuous progress. Even haredim think the Torah belong to human, as to be interpreted and debated. But they don't reay apply this. The middle, rationalist conservative movement is more right imho
Thank you for the video. I initially was going to convert to orthodox, but having to up root my entire life at 72 and move to a Jewish community wasn't going to happen. My local conservative Synagogue was far more accommodating. I can convert and remain in the community. The equating of electricity to fire seems odd. I've never been able to start a fire in my wood stove with a light bulb.
@@bladetalk The deeper history of the movements that you spoke on were really interesting. I've heard some here and there, about the Rabbis being the heads back then and the changes brought about by the changing of the times. Were their specific books or web pages you study for this info?
I enjoyed your talk. I have been a Christian all my life but always wondered and questioned many things. I have been studying Judaism for a few years and have visited a Reform and Conservative synagogue. I have friends that are Jews who have taught me and I am interested in converting to becoming a Conservative Jew. I and interested on your thoughts of the verse you mentioned about the kid boiled in its mother’s milk. It’s very confusing. I keep Kosher. We observe Shabbat and all the holidays according to the Torah. I also have a question regarding conversion. I saw where you can do it all online but I don’t think that would be legit ?? I currently live in Oklahoma City but we’re moving to San Antonio this spring and will attend the conservative group there, which I have visited. I would love to hear your thoughts please

Thank you so much for sharing! I am a Conservative Jew of color.
Thank you for your take on this topic. I feel more informed and firm on Conservative Judaism and love that I converted to Conservative Judaism
