Frank: even the really modern dont truely get it
Frank: it is difficult to explain
Frank: it is like a shoe, it needs to fit just right
Frank: sometimes they dont just fit right

Frank: u know of the beis din list?
Frank: there was a list that the rabbinate put out of kosher gior beis dins
Frank: i would assume his was not on the list
Frank: this was about a year ago
Frank: if it is not good enough for a bs organization like the israeli rabbinate, it most likely wouldnt be good enough for me
