He Says, She Says

Luke Ford has a thing for Amy Klein. So he gives it the ol’ grammar school try, and pulls her ponytail whenever he can.

This one deserves a yelp.

Amy wrote,

Rabbi Jonathan Rosenberg, who joined the congregation in March, was formally welcomed last month at the Orthodox synagogue’s annual dinner. He is replacing Rabbi Aron Tendler, who stepped down in March 2006 after 22 years at the synagogue when rumors re-surfaced about “inappropriate misconduct” while teaching at YULA in the 1980s.

Luke Ford writes,

“I don’t think this is accurate. What sunk Aron Tendler was not rumors of “inappropriate misconduct” while he was teaching at YULA in the 1980s but telephone recordings of Tendler engaging in phone sex from the Shaarey Zedek office with one of his former YULA students…â€?

Well, then.

I agree that Amy Klein didn’t need to write exactly why he stepped down, why does it matter?

The orig article sucks. Why can’t a modern orthodox person attend Yeshiva, that is to say, study our texts and Masora, and still be mo.

Why all the dam quotes and labeling?

Nevertheless, Amy was criticized in Letters to the Editor for “slandering” the departed rabbi.

Scroll to the bottom — very last letter.
