Conservative Judiasm / The Movement : A 5 page
paper that
postulates that the Conservative Movement was designed to
meet a specific need to westernize Judaism for Americans. As

points are made to prove that there is little difference in the
liturgical teachings between all the sects--and therefore the
Conservatives aren't all that liberal just because they allow
inter-marriage and woman in the rabbinical. Because of the
amount of foresight, Jewish youth prefer it to other sects.
