[edit] Sizes of Chabad vs. the RCA
I've reverted Truthaboutchabad's comments, since I think we need to differenciate between the RCA, which is a group of Rabbis, and Chabad religious and social services, which are for the laity. Does Chabad have an internal group of Rabbonim that might be comparable to the RCA? Mikeage 09:25, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, nearly all chabad rabbis have synagogues, and they are all together under a central organization call Merkos L'Enyonei Chinuch. Thousands of them come to their annual convention, and they all gather together to make international programs and campaigns.--Truthaboutchabad 11:06, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

- Very well, I was familiar with the periodic gatherings, I was just trying to clarify if we're talking organizations of Rabbonim per se, or just organizations of people. I'll add back your change. Mikeage 11:47, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] What about their recent activities?
Any Modern Orthodox Jews here? Someone might want to write about the recent activities and positions of the RCA.
