Reply To: Why Can't Women Get Modern Smicha and Become Rabbis?

Charlie,

What was accepted was that women can be toanot, not that women can be judges.

Rebbe Yid,

The reason why most women you speak to can’t have proper halachic discussions is because they were never taught Gemara, Rishonim, Acharonim, Teshuvos, etc.

If we would have a voluntary course in Bais Yakovs and Seminaries where girls, who wish to do so, can “learn how to learn” then some of them will choose to go on to more advance learning in Shas and Poskim and eventually there will be female scholars worthy of getting smicha and being rabbanim.
