@NILI: That’s a comment only an am haaretz could make. For thousands of years Jews without Rabbinic ordination have had the same interest in religious/spiritual/halachic questions that I have. Simply because we are not ordained we’re not allowed to have such views or do such research? Besides, I have a Talmud degree from Jewish Theological Seminary. So I know a thing or two about halacha and what I don’t know I complement by approaching learned Jewish sources like the ones quoted here.

Again, yr problem w. me is political, yet you attempt to make the issue one of religion which it isn’t (except in yr mind).
