The Shul Who May Not Be Named

Which is Rabbi Daniel Feldman's real PPG (private prayer group)?
How many names can one place have?
  • The Teaneck Shul
  • The Teaneck Shtibul
  • Torat Chessed
  • Toras Chessed
  • Etz Chaim
  • Ohr Saadya
  • 544 Queen Anne, Inc.
  • The Shteibshul
  • Another name?
They have currently decided to follow the money and go with Ohr Saadya, which means light of the help of g-d. Sounds like a Mosque, which coincidentally is what I suggested they do in my posting Surefire Way To Get Approved On Wednesday.
It was named after Yaakov Abdelhak's grandfather, for a sizable donation of money of course. Who is Yaakov Abdelhak and why does he need a shul named after his grandfather? Better yet, why did the South of Cedar need ANOTHER private prayer group? What really happened to the Mechitza Minyan/Merkaz L'Torah at the Jewish Center of Teaneck? Why did Yaakov Abdelhak need a PPG of his own and why is the PPG suing Teaneck Township? 

Next time you visit Torat Chesed/Toras Chesed/Etz Chaim/Ohr Saadya ask these questions to Rabbi Daniel Feldman, Zalman Levine, Rochelle Mandelbaum, Allan (Chanan) Cohen, Levi Goldberg, Famous Urine Cake King, Robert Ehrlich or even Yaakov Abdelhak himself. I'm sure not only will you be fascinated by their "non" answers, but you will find them encouraging you to pray elsewhere.

Why do people go there if there are so many questions. And the questions you are asking here haven been answered since you first started posting your funny articles. Guess the people who attend there just aren't deep thinkers. Mayb they just don't think for themselves. Now that would not surprise me.

That's kind of mean to say they don't think for themselves. Teaneck has many independent thinking people so you should take back what you said because if something was wrong people from the shul would say so and speak out and set things straight.
