Orthodox Judaism: wigs made from the hair of Hindu women not kosher
Prasun Sonwalkar - Indo-Asian News Service
21 May 2004
Wigs made from the hair of Hindu women from India are not kosher, an ultra-conservative rabbi has ruled, sparking a wave of wig burning by the Jewish community across the world.
London, May 21 (EIANS) Orthodox Jewish women who cover their hair with real hair wigs have been ordered to stop, because the hair used comes from Hindu women.
Following an investigation, during which an orthodox rabbi from London was dispatched to India to monitor the making of wigs, the women have been told that in future only synthetic wigs would be acceptable because it would take just one Indian hair to contaminate a whole wig.
Reports said the main issue apparently was the fact that Hindu women are shorn during a religious purification ceremony and therefore the hair itself would be seen as being linked with idol worship.
The ultra-conservative rabbi, Dayan Ahron Dovid Dunner, who travelled to India to see the wigs being made, was quoted by the Jewish Chronicle as saying: "I appeal to women's conscience and sense of devotion to Judaism for them to refrain from wearing any human hair wig until guidelines can be put in place to give certain wigs... a religious seal of approval."

The state has not only committed itself to protecting the separate institutions of different Orthodox Jewish groups but also, especially since 1977, to their financial subvention. Relations between the ultra-Orthodox and the neo-Orthodox have been complicated and not always cordial. Nevertheless, the neo-Orthodox have tended to look to the ultra-Orthodox for legitimacy on religious matters, and the ultra-Orthodox have managed to maintain their virtual monopoly on the training and certification of rabbis (including neo-Orthodox ones) in Israel. (The neo-Orthodox university, Bar-Ilan, as part of the parliamentary legislation that enabled it, was prohibited from ordaining rabbis.) Thus ultra-Orthodoxy has an aura of ultimate authenticity, a special connection to tradition that has been difficult for others to overcome. Even a staunch secularist such as David Ben-Gurion lamented during a confrontation that the ultra-Orthodox "look like our grandfathers.

Non-Orthodox Judaism
Israel Table of Contents Although both Reform and Conservative movements dated their presence in Israel to the 1930s, they experienced real growth, the Conservative movement in particular, only in the late 1960s to mid-1970s. During this period, relatively large numbers of American Jews immigratedmore than 36,000 between 1968 and 1975. Nevertheless, the opposition of the Israeli Orthodox establishment to recognizing Conservative and (particularly) Reform Judaism as legitimate was strong, and it continued to be unwilling to share power and patronage with these movements. Neither of the newer movements has attracted native-born Israelis in significant numbers. The importance of the non-Orthodox movements in Israel in the late 1980s mainly reflects the influence they have wielded in the American and West European Diaspora.

Orthodox Judaism:
Orthodox Jews total about one million in the United States. They can roughly be divided into three groups: Modern Orthodox Judaism, Ultra-Orthodox Judaism, and Hasidic Judaism. They strictly follow the 613 injunctions in the Mosaic Code. They assert that only traditional methods of studying Jewish religious texts is valid; they reject modern forms of historical scholarship. They generally regard homosexual behavior as " an abomination ," totally forbidden by the Torah. However, simply having a sexual orientation does not violate Jewish law, if one remains celibate. Rabbi Barry Freundel of Kesher Israel , in Washington, DC explains: " Homosexuality is not a state of being in traditional Judaism; it's an act. Desires are...not relevant. " Some gay and lesbian Orthodox Jews interpret the prohibitions in Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13 literally, as specifically prohibiting only anal sex between two men. Thus, they feel free to " ...kiss, hug, and caress, may touch in ways that lead to orgasm (such as mutual masturbation), and may also have oral sex.

Family converts to orthodox Judaism By CARA EASTWOOD (AP-WS-01-05-04 1224EST). I think it's always great when someone decides to convert to Judaism. Judaism is a wonderful religion that is unfortunately misunderstood by many. We should explain it more, and even encourage people to convert. In the beginning, the Winter family, described in the article, just wanted to follow the Bible. Christians claim to believe that the Hebrew Bible is from God, but as the article says, many Christians don't even read it. Winter's Christian friends called them Judaizers for wanting to follow the Biblical commandments! The Winter family then tried going to a "Messianic Jewish" church for a while, because they thought they could combine their existing Christianity with their love of the Law (described in the Hebrew Bible). But, as Chana Winter says, ''It just wasn't our belief. We didn't want to dress up and play Jew". They finally realized that Judaism is the correct path and converted. Here are excerpts from the article: CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) Chanah Winter likes the combination of lights and remembers when she, too, decorated their home for Christmas and piled gifts beneath a sparkling tree. The holidays give Chanah and her husband, David, time to emphasize the differences between Christianity and Judaism to their three children, Simcha, 7, Jacob, 9, and Adam, 12.

Encyclopedia Definition: Orthodox Judaism
Orthodox Judaism is one of the three major Jewish denominations ; it is characterized by:
  • Strict adherence to Halakha (codes of Jewish law). A range of beliefs towards modern culture which vary from careful acceptance of some parts of modernity , to outright rejection of parts of modernity considered immoral. A range of beliefs towards modern forms of historical scholarship and text study. Ultra-Orthodox, Hasidic and some Modern Orthodox Jews hold that almost all such forms of learning are forbidden and heretical. However, many Modern Orthodox Jews hold that modern forms of historical scholarship and text study may be used in some or all areas of Jewish thought. A fundamentalist (in the technical sense of the term) teaching and acceptance of Jewish principles of faith Orthodoxy can roughly be classified in these groups: Modern Orthodox Judaism Ultra-Orthodox Judaism and Hasidic Judaism

Ultra-orthodox Judaism , sometimes called Haredi Judaism (especially in Israel), is the most theologically conservative form of Judaism . The Hebrew term "haredi" means "one who trembles" [in awe of God], compare " Quaker Ultra-Orthodox Jews consider their belief system and religious practices to extend in an unbroken chain back to Moses and the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai . As a result they consider other denominations to be unjustifiable deviations from authentic Judaism. Most secular historians claim, however, that the ultra-Orthodox are a relatively recent group, dating back to the Enlightenment and emancipation of Jews in Western and Central Europe.

Orthodox Judaism and The Liberal Arts By Shalom Carmy Yeshiva University’s undergraduate colleges search for a way to balance devotion to Torah study with the demands of a serious liberal arts education Like Wittgenstein, I cannot help looking at every question from a religious point of view. But my perspective, unlike Wittgenstein’s, derives from, and aims to conform itself to, the teachings of Orthodox Judaism. These teachings reside in a vast literature, starting with the Hebrew Bible and the Talmudic corpus and continuing through over a thousand years of legal and theological commentary, works of jurisprudence, and philosophical creativity. In principle, the Torah has something to say about all subjects under the sun and above the sun. Its orientation is formative, its legal conclusions (halakha) normative. Moreover, Torah study is an overriding religious imperative pursued for its own sake; it would be difficult for an outsider to overestimate its importance in the life of the committed Jew.

    Israel - Non-orthodox Judaism
    The American denominations of Conservative Jews (see Glossary) and Reform Jews (see Glossary), although they have enrolled between them the vast majority of affiliated American Jews, have achieved a very modest presence in Israel. Neither Reform nor Conservative rabbinical ordination is recognized by the Israeli chief rabbinate; thus, these rabbis are generally forbidden to perform weddings or authorize divorces. (In the mid-1980s a few Conservative rabbis were granted the right, on an ad hoc basis, to perform weddings.) In the early 1980s, there were twelve Reform congregations in Israel and about 900 membersalmost 90 percent of whom were born outside the country. During the same period there were more than twenty Conservative congregations with more than 1,500 members; only about 14 percent were native-born Israelis (and, as in the case of Reform, the great majority of these were of Ashkenazi descent).
    Although both Reform and Conservative movements dated their presence in Israel to the 1930s, they experienced real growth, the Conservative movement in particular, only in the late 1960s to mid-1970s. During this period, relatively large numbers of American Jews immigratedmore than 36,000 between 1968 and 1975. Nevertheless, the opposition of the Israeli Orthodox establishment to recognizing Conservative and (particularly) Reform Judaism as legitimate was strong, and it continued to be unwilling to share power and patronage with these movements. Neither of the newer movements has attracted native-born Israelis in significant numbers. The importance of the non-Orthodox movements in Israel in the late 1980s mainly reflects the influence they have wielded in the American and West European Diaspora.

    Orthodox Judaism and Jewish-Christian Dialogue Rabbi David Rosen David Rosen is the International Director for Interfaith Affairs of the American Jewish Committee. Previously, he was director of the Anti-Defamation League's Jerusalem office and the Chief Rabbi of Ireland. In recent decades a concept that was historically more suited to Christianity than the critical tradition of rabbinic Judaism, has become commonplace within the Orthodox Jewish community – namely the idea of “da’at Torah”, indicative of an ex cathedra authority of Torah scholars, not only impervious to verification or analysis but even viewing the latter as a form of impiety. Paradoxically this virus has even infected modern Orthodoxy or centrist Orthodoxy (as some prefer to describe it) which in the past had prided itself on its greater intellectual rigor. A striking example of this is in the United States where the person of the late Rabbi J. B. Soloveitchik has acquired almost iconic stature, especially since the institution with which he was so closely identified, Yeshivah University, is the main single
