It's for people who otherwise wouldn't learn.<BR/><BR/>This was the same, by the way, with him teaching women Gemara. For him, it was NEVER lechatchila. His position was that if he doesn't teach CERTAIN women Gemara, they'll end up at JTS. As a talmid of his, he was VERY happy when I married someone from a "traditionalist" seminary.<BR/><BR/>And his kids are all very frum- chareidim.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-42831251481716999142007-10-11T16:12:00.000+02:002007-10-11T16:12:00.000+02:00Great idea!!!Great idea!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-71791565137581792602007-10-11T15:55:00.000+02:002007-10-11T15:55:00.000+02:00This part:The only question I have is what does it...This part:<BR/><I>The only question I have is what does it mean when he says "Separate men's and women's programs"?

Although you have a labels section many screens down on the right sidebar, it appears that your template is not set up to list the label in the post itself (though I think that even if the label was listed, the proper thing to do when pitching an item for which you receive compensation when people click any of the four links is to say explicitly in the post that this is an advertising post)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-28062307394793001772007-10-11T15:01:00.000+02:002007-10-11T15:01:00.000+02:00that is true - it is an advertising referral. and ...that is true - it is an advertising referral. and I labeled the post under advertising for that purpose.
