Beyond Synthesis

Back in June, on The Blog of Garnel Ironheart, 'Garnel' wrote a piece, The Necessary Synthesis, at http://www.garnelironheart.blogspot.ca/2013/06/the-necessary-synthesis.html, arguing for the importance for the Modern Orthodox world (followers of the Rav zt"l) and the Dati Leumi world (followers of Rav Kuk zt"l) to develop a synthesis of their positions. After reading his piece, I told him that while I agree with his basic assertion, I believe that the path he offered to further his suggestion was not the one that needed to be taken. I, at the time, offered to write a guest post on his blog to present my view on what is needed.

Recently, I fulfilled my pledge, and I invite you to read it at
