Posted by LuchAAA on Mon Apr 25 02:24:10 2011, in response to Re: Dand124 Asks Chris GP38 the Same Question #8, posted by TonyG on Mon Apr 25 02:11:00 2011. Sure. There are always tensions. Even in Forest Hills, largely Jewish, the older European Jews(Ashkenazi) complain about the Bukharians. The Bukharians now have their own congregations while the Georgians have their own.In the end, it's all about birthrate. I'd bet that the birthrate among Ashkenazi Jews is much lower than in the Bukharian community so the Bukharian influence is now strongest in Forest Hills. Just like the influence of Hispanics is being felt in the Catholic church and they'll adjust or the church will lose members. I actually attend mass in Spanish at times. I'm lazy and don't wake up early. If I miss 5p mass I'll have to attend en espanol at 12:30. |
