Thanksgiving: another Modern Orthodox vs. Frummie holiday
It may be different with the people you know, but in my circle I have noticed one thing to be true – that the modern orthodox folks I know are much more likely to celebrate Thanksgiving than the frummies I know and that got me thinking. It got me thinking about how the frummies like to be strict when it comes to things that are actually Torah related and how the modern like to take things on as extra that aren’t always Torah related.
