How are they any crazier than the originals? I understand the karaites being worse because of the other nonsense they tacked onto it, but why do you dismiss today’s chevra so easily?
I thought you were talking about the karaites. Who are you talking about?
AFAIK the conservative Committee has not touched shechita yet. You can email them and ask what they hold about shechita.
Good, so email them and ask if they hold that every jew is required to only eat properly shechted meat. And while you’re at it, if they hold of all the rema’s chumros of shehiya bmiut basra, and the rest.
I am aware there are conservative jews who won’t eat non kosher meat, but that is way different from the tzedukim where the entire movement actually had uniform standards, which they held were incumbent. (And like I say, I doubt any conservative jew if shechting himself would be makpid on shehiya b’miut basra.)
