In light of recent events involving the contemptible activities of a small minority of Ultra-"Orthodox" Jews in Israel, I feel obliged to note that there is no conceivable way to justify their obnoxious, inconsiderate and often violent behavior. As a rabble, they attempt to force their views on their secular or less-religious neighbors. Their behavior is contemptible, inexcusable and a corruption of Torah values.
Kollel or...? Can a young couple committed to building a deep relationship with God also find success outside of the kollel world? Executive summary: yes.
