About United Synagogue
- 👎 United Synagogue is irrelevant to the next generation, with many children either marrying out or becoming more orthodox.
- 👎 The synagogue services feel uninspiring and academic, lacking a sense of Jewishness.
- 👍 Some people feel that United Synagogue shuls cater mostly to the elderly and are full of unfriendly individuals (“Karens”).
- 🤷♂️ Mixed opinions exist regarding the level of orthodoxy within United Synagogue, with some considering it traditional rather than truly orthodox.
- 🔜 Many shuls within United Synagogue are in dying areas and may disappear within 15 years.
- ❌ Traditional Judaism is perceived as not working anymore by some young people who feel suffocated in the frum kehilah (orthodox community).
- 💡 Suggestions for improvement: United Synagogue should invest in creating new shuls that cater to children of frum youth who don’t fit into existing orthodox paradigms.
- ✅ The location of one particular United Synagogue branch is praised for its convenience near bus stations, a nice building, nearby restaurants, and a gym.
