I'd really like to read an intelligent, thoughtful debate between an Orthodox Jew and a Reform Jew about parenting. I wouldn't be surprised to see them agreeing on many points, and I'd expect the points of disagreement to be thought provoking. But it's difficult to have that response when you've paired an intelligent, open-minded, well-spoken Orthodox rabbi with a mean-spirited, small-minded opponent who can't write. It's hard to read Amy Sohn's entries in this debate without scoffing at her opinions. This is too bad, when so many diverse kinds of liberal Jews read your website and would like to sink their teeth into a meaningful debate.

Too bad about the company
