Reply To: Talking in Shul

I really believed that speaking reasonably with people who spoke in shul was the solution. It is not. No matter what I said or how I said it I was almost always ignored at best or mocked at worst. Even those who thanked me for pointing out the obvious to them inevitably went back to talking. So, I left that shul and now daven with a yeshiva minyan. Best idea I ever had.
