 Despite that outlook, Dr. Lamm said in response to a question that ''in 34 years of public life I've never experienced such open hostility toward the Orthodox'' from the non-Orthodox groups.

Rabbi Wolfe Kelman, a Conservative leader who is the executive vice president of the Rabbinical Assembly, acknowledged the animosity, but he said it came from efforts, particularly among ultra-Orthodox groups, to try to delegitimize non-Orthodox rabbis.

''The centrist Orthodox have not been our problem,'' Rabbi Kelman  said.

    "I don't keep kosher! I don't keep Shabbos! I'm okay with intermarriage! How dare you question my title and authenticity?"
    My line to the is simple: Do what you want but come up with an original name for your religion like the Chrisians and Muslims did.
