RCV - on Shuls and alcohol
We'd like to take some credit for this most recent statement by the RCV - which follows on to our recent post:
However we notice that they haven't considered Kashrut matters - something raised by readers of this blog.
Well done rabbi glasman. The alcohol problem needs to be urgently addressed.
ReplyDeleteIt is disgraceful that shuls feel that to attract worshippers they must supply grog. It is a bizayon beth haknesset and totally unJewish.
Can anyone recall a Christian or Muslim house of worship trying to attract members this way? I can't and if it happened the media would go beserk.
So for Jews to do so borders on chilul Hashem
