Most people wouldn't call allowing women basic rights 'modernized' but I guess it just goes to show how out of date/touch Conservative and Orthodox Judaism really is with everyone but themselves
The orthodox are still completely sexist. Conservative Judaism was until the mid 90s or so
I agree that if conservative Judaism didn't stop being sexist it would have died. Orthodox still thrives
Fiddler on the roof shows how Judaism had to transform to survive. But orthodox hasnt
And yes one of the most ridiculous things in Israel imo is not having a section where men and women can pray together. Because the orthodox lobby has nenenyahu
This is off the point though
I was just saying that conservative Judaism has become more liberal on issues that their congregation believes in. But I'll still maintain that a large majority of conservative Jews are greatly pro Israel. And id guess in reform Judaism it's closer to 50 50
