A committee of legal experts who set policy for Conservative Judaism decided yesterday at a closed-door meeting in Baltimore to wait until December to vote on whether to lift the movement's ban on gay rabbis and same-sex union ceremonies. Rabbi Ayelet S. Cohen, a Conservative rabbi at Congregation Beth Simchat Torah, a predominantly gay synagogue in Manhattan that is not part of the Conservative movement, said:
"I understand the need for the law committee to go through a serious halachic process, but this affects the real lives of real people, and for the people in our community there is real urgency."
These stalling tactics are shameful. They can put-off this decision, but not forever. Times have changed and nothing can stop this tidal wave of acceptance and common sense.

At least a conservative religious body is considering coming into the 21st century. Who cares if they want to take a few months to decide; after all, we've been waiting for a few millenia. Gary (NJ)
