Rabbi Eli Mansour on the Tolerance of Rabbi Jacob Kassin

Any member of, >> [music] >> uh, our community, uh, no matter how religious or irreligious they are, you know, what what brand of Judaism do you associate [music] with, and everybody will say, "Orthodox." And that's the guy [music] that's driving on Shabbat, and that's the guy that's eating treif, and the guy doesn't keep too [music] many of the fast days, but God forbid call that guy conservative and he'll punch you in the nose. Now, what what gives a community at the time [music] that maybe doesn't have all the religious observance that the Torah demands, but one thing is clear, we're Orthodox. Rabbi [music] Kassin put that in their brains, you're all part of the congregation Shaare Zion, and it's an Orthodox congregation. >> [music] >> He said, "We're not judging the way you live, but when you're part of the community, you're [music] part of the community that's an Orthodox community."
