The dilemmas of Orthodox...<A HREF="http://lookstein.org/lookjed/read.php?1,3011,3076" REL="nofollow">Paul Shaviv on lookjed</A>:<BR/><BR/>1. The dilemmas of Orthodox students, as described in the pamphlet and in (some parts) of the ensuing Lookjed discussion, are a symptom of a problem, not a 'stand-alone' problem. If you teach students (and others) that all 'non-Torah' culture is worthless, irrelevant and has no place in his or her life, they will certainly have a huge shock when encountering general culture of merit (art, music, literature), and/or when encountering individuals of cultural and intellectual stature. If young people reach the conclusion that their teachers lied to them about that, they will bring into question everything that they have been taught. That shock alone may destroy their faith.. If you teach that other religious traditions are self-evidently absurd and shallow, then it is no wonder that the faith of the student quoted on the front of the pamphlet was shaken when he/she encountered an academic course on Early Christianity. But the blanket denigration of all that is outside the Orthodox community, together with the blanket denial that our history has always, in every way, been intertwined with that of the peoples among whom we lived, is largely, and increasingly, the attitude of Orthodoxy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11425059.post-1585008306405145142007-09-11T14:19:00.000-04:002007-09-11T14:19:00.000-04:00Wolf,I was at the reunion as well- (I was on the s...Wolf,<BR/><BR/>I was at the reunion as well- (I was on the squad from 1989-1992)- I couldn't believe Mike married MK either!
