Rabbi Yom Tov Practical Spirituality: I'm Not Orthodox

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Yom Tov Glaser’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

I was because he was pulling rabbis to find out what they said Judaism was and every single rabbi said something different and so I said something different as well which is kind of interesting like that sounds quite pluralistic considering I think every rabbi he asked was of the Torah observant types meaning they were all what the with what secular or conservative a reformed Jews call Orthodox we don't use that term by the way never call yourself over that actually that was a term that we were labeled with by guilty feeling Jews who like kind of dropped everything and so what happened they felt bad about their own observance or a lack of observance and so what's this simple way out of the guilt call those who actually still keep Torah Orthodox which is the word strict the word Orthodox means strict so call them strict yeah do I sound like a strict person to some people laughing because they know me a bit I'm like the least strict person you'll ever meet I mean the strict is not really our our theme around here hey you know we got some seats right here how many are you three five no problem gentlemen would you be so kind as to bring in a couple more chairs later ladies we interrupt this class for five ladies walking in the classroom right now can I get one of you dudes to sit us you sit in this seat and then slide over one so the ladies can sit together maybe slightly oh yeah you got an extra chair Oh amazing they're just opening up everywhere should I start the video again this videos after a lousy start and you know what I'll just keep ranting about the word Orthodox for a while
