in the National Jewish Post.
Rabbi Goldman touched off a
heated debate with a sermon last
Yom Kippur, in which he sug-
gested+ 18 changes to bring cer-
tain religious laws up to modern
requirements.
Th e spokesmen of orthodoxy
immediately charged Goldman
with aligning himself with his-
torical anti-Semites, Other critics
asserted that Rabbi Goldman
lacked sufficient Halachic knowl-
edge to pass judgment on these
problems.
In a letter to the Denver Jew-
ish News, Goldman said:
"What I am attempting to do
is re-evaluate the whole complex
of the Jewish Halachah, historic-
ally and psychologically, and to
set up criteria that might ulti-
mately serve as a basis for a
new code."
