Orthodox Paradox

Jul 23 2007 11:17am
Noah Feldman has a fantastic article in the NYT Magazine about the contradictions of Modern Orthodox Judaism and the boundaries the Jewish community sets up to isolate itself and exclude dissent. Having grown up in an environment similar to the one he describes, I can relate. Fortunately for me, my high school doesn't have an alumni publication to remove me from.
