Three pressing debates within Conservative Judaism reveal deepening tensions around pluralism, marriage law, and clergy accountability. A growing ideological rift threatens the movement's historically pluralistic foundation, as traditionalist voices face diminishing institutional representation while egalitarian positions gain prominence at the Jewish Theological Seminary. Meanwhile, scholarship has overlooked a significant 1966 breakthrough in addressing the agunah crisis - the Rabbinical Assembly Law Committee's adoption of hafka'at kiddushin (marriage annulment). This Talmudically-grounded approach enables a Bet Din to nullify marriages ab initio, offering legitimate relief for agunot while protecting children's status. The discourse on clergy malpractice similarly warrants reexamination, as previous analyses have failed to adequately address key jurisprudential concerns. True clergy malpractice must involve ministerial functions performed outside accepted procedures, raising critical First Amendment questions about courts' ability to establish clerical standards.
