It is prohibited for any rabbi to serve on a council of rabbis where conservative rabbis are included.

This is accepted throughout Orthodoxy, and agreed to by Rav JB Soloveichik, so it is accepted by YU as well.

If I lived in a community with only a conservative shul, I would not attend. My Judaism is about what G-d wants, not about what is comfortable to me. I believe that G-d would rather me stay home.

I don’t think you are a bad person. I’m sorry if you think I do. I think you have been misled. I do disrespect those who mislead you.

Again, all I ask is you to understand the rules which bind me, and how I cannot recognize your movement.
