Dear HaKatan,
Please expand your “the Zionists want to destroy Torah” argument. What does that even mean in the present day? Almost all Jews live in countries that allow the individual the right to worship as s/he pleases. If anybody has an idea of what authentic Torah sans Zionism looks like, let them profess such a belief. The glaring truth is that it is impossible to make a clean amputation. An absolute refutation of Zionism, will leave the objectivity of the Torah on life-support. Though it is tantalizing to rethink things without allowing any concessions to Zionism, it is impossible. Over a century of inconclusive debate, has consistently ended well before that line.
Maybe you have a better argument than anybody else before us. Our people have seen much upheaval since the Industrial Revolution. It is still premature to proclaim that Judaism is ahead of the industrial/technological curve. [The same could be said for humanity as a whole.] We are blind to the future. How can one claim that this-and-that, is bound to ‘destroy Torah’? There are so many statements here to ponder:
The slow pace of yeshivos.
The lack of gemara classes that are not daf yomi.
Our leaders increased activities in lay matters, preventing them from their ultimate task as religious leaders.
Uncontrolled use of technology.
Lack of enthusiasm in our schools.
Little inclusiveness among the various communities.
Ignoring the potential for outreach.
This list could be endless. My point is, that there are so many glaring internal threats to our ability to sustain the Torah. Many have been discussed publicly. Yet, none are so glaring as to force the issue. They require a nuanced peek at the future. With a prudent mind.
So how do you so boldly claim, that Zionists want to destroy the Torah, when it has not been at all played out in history?
