I just want to respond to DaMoshe’s absolutely false assertion that Avi Weiss was rejected by the RCA. The fact of the matter is that Avi Weiss has been a Rabbinical member of the RCA for as long as he wanted to. The RCA never kicked him out and kept renewing his membership year after year after year, as long as Avi paid his RCA membership dues. The RCA let Avi remain a member for many years after he established Open Orthodox. It was Avi himself who decided not too long ago that he wasn’t paying his RCA membership renewal. The RCA was happy to renew his membership every year.
And Mr. Weiss’ synagogue in the Bronx, “HIR”, is still a member synagogue of the Orthodox Union.
Shame on the RCA and OU.
