[Avodah] Defining concern for the klal

[Rich, Joel]

However, stricter separation has allowed all kinds of O, whether M or
not so M, to become more secure, by being in control of its religious
destiny, by being able to build a core social identity within the Jewish
people, by being able to fully dissociate itself from the eggrerious
abuses of Judaism by the mere fact that they are organizationally
separate from the transgressors, and by educating its children in O
schools - where some non-O may be accepted, but on the premise of them
joining an O school.

========================================================

And where do you see the pirud disappearing, or is this not a goal? (I'm
reminded of a cartoon of a mathematical proof which ends in "and then
there was a miracle" - perhaps in a way this describes a very basic
philosophical issue - how much weight do we focus on the
individual/micro halachik issues (the knife is not tamei) and say hkb"h
will take care of the big picture and how much on the community/macro
issues (yes you all gave tzedaka but we still need to feed the hungry))
