I was close to the father, but the minute I disagreed with even a single aspect of his views, he shunned ME in Shule. I made every attempt to continue to say good shabbos to him and treat him normally but he promptly wilfully ignores me. He has issues. I do not want the world to think it's only about victims. His son is a victim, but some of the scorn is their own doing. I would not normally write on such matters but I believe I have to because מדבר שקר תרחק. There is much שקר and Zephania is a complex individual with issues that he needs to deal with. He isn't מרוצה לקהל partly because of his own idiosyncratic method of social policy. Simply on those grounds he cannot push himself to an Amud, להלכה. He showס little ability to ’agree to disagree’ and takes almost everything personally when it is not. On Shabbos, he came up to where I was sitting and promptly introduced himself to my brother-in-law, because he is a prominent barrister. He ignored me as if I don't exist. That is simply plain rude. It works both ways, but he is purposefully blind to this. I understand why, but everyone needs to know that fact. I also have some indication that he was commenting on my blog under a pseudonym. <b>He</b> knows the truth, but I doubt he'll come out and say it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-52399150371994424122013-08-04T06:35:10.509+03:002013-08-04T06:35:10.509+03:00www.tzedek.org.auwww.tzedek.org.auEnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-7530981707205338212013-08-02T18:33:57.873+03:002013-08-02T18:33:57.873+03:00I wish you all the best, my friend.

The achdut on the surface is obviously false. It would cause me to question the entire enterprise. I like being "modern" orthodox because we have enough of an outside connection to know that sexual molestation is sick and unacceptable, and we have the kishkas to stand up to it without resorting to "proofs" or other ridiculous exercises.
