[quote=Anonymous][quote]You got the gender wrong.[/quote] +1 In Orthodox Judaism boys attend yeshivas in which they spend most of their time sudying the Talmud. At many they are taught no English, science, or history and minimal math. New York State has been battling yeshivas about this for years. See eg https://www.timesunion.com/education/article/hudson-valley-yeshivas-expect-loss-funding-20229542.php They are educated as if each and every one of them will become a rabbi. Of course, there aren't enough congregations for all of them to do this, so it kind of turns into the Hunger Games in the quest to be one of the lucky ones. Girls, believe it or not, are given a better secular education. They are generally regarded as inferior to men and therefore incapable of understanding the Talmud. [/quote]
