for synagogue board members:

If the Synagogue, the source of Judaism today, passively permits non-Jewish influences to blur its uniqueness, if the Synagogue is molded in a non-Jewish form, architecturally and ritually, then American Jewry will imperceptibly blend with its neighbors until it ceases to exist.

Rabbi Zalman Posner is a veteran rabbi, serving in the field of rabbinics since 1949. He is rabbi emeritus of Congregation Sherith Israel of Nashville, Tennessee and the co-director of Chabad-Lubavitch of Nashville.

The other night I watched "Boston Legal" and a couple of the characters went to a synagogue service. The holy day was described as being the Jewish arbor day.


Anyway I was disappointed to see that they had guitar playing during the service!
