In other news, he was a Conservative Rabbi. Period. Why is this still a discussion?
And no, let’s put a stop to the myth that the Conservative movement was frum until they let people drive on Shabbos. They had already “mattir’d” swordfish, gelatin, treif cheese, altered the nusach, done away with mechitzas, done away with pretty much all hilchos tznius. Did I miss anything? They might have already said a Kohen can marry a convert by that point, but I’m unsure of that one. Point is, the Conservative movement was never OK. If you think it was, you’re either not informed or you simply aren’t Orthodox. Mr. Heschel, for example, was not.
