@Bob Levin;

I hope I am not misunderstood here. I do not wish to bear judgement on anyone, as I am only trying to assess the situation and how it impacts on the next chapter of Jewish history. It also might be unfair to blame “teachers and institutions” for a cultural evolution that was probably too fast and too wide for them to get a grasp and make a difference.

Regarding your comment on American politics, I cannot agree more, but the politics of Democracy may be changing for the better, and a day may come when you and me shall no longer have to vote for idiots to prevent worse idiots from doing harm, and we shall be able to run the show ourselves from our armchairs, online. What remains to be seen is how the facebook revolutions, such as the housing rebellion we’re having these days, will translate into a new and improved form of governance.
