The Elusive and Illusive Quest for “Frumkeit”

 

Decide for yourself who makes more sense

Chapter 2 of EndtheMadness Guide to the Shidduch World is lengthy, with a great deal of food for thought, so I will split it into two part.

The approved “experts” very much want you to believe that the problems in the shidduch world are primarily demographic in nature, and can be best solved by social engineering, throwing more money at those intrepid, heroic matchmakers, and, of course, giving the “experts” even more funding and control. 

Kind of like how the answer for the IDF’s “failure” on October 7 is to depend on them even more and force more people into the IDF, and the answer for Covid shots failing to work as promised was to take lots and lots of “boosters”. 

Keep doubling down. Keep doing more of the same and expecting different results. It’s much more comfortable than defying the “experts” and being ridiculed by losers. Better to die than to be ridiculed. Better to sacrifice your child to Molech than to be ridiculed. Right?

As you read the next installment of my magnum opus on the shidduch world, I want you to think about what makes more sense. 

Is the problem really a shortage of “good” men for all the amazing single women just desperate to marry the first nice guy who comes along?

Is the solution really to compel young women to start dating later so the older single women will have more opportunities?

Do we really need to pony up more money — up front — for all the hardworking shadchanim, because they are doing such a bang-up job, and it would be such a loss to society if they burned out?

Or do we need to engage in communal soul-searching and admit that we have gone way off the track of true Torah and sanity itself, making a shidduch crisis inevitable?

We cannot solve a problem if we refuse to recognize the true causes and seriously address them. If we have indeed veered off track, the only solution is to return, step by step. 

Teshuva.
