  While even those who support gay and lesbian ordination in Israel do not dispute Schechter's right to abide by a certain set of halachic standards, "I can't imagine that this incident bodes well for the future," said Rabbi David Lazar, spiritual leader of Congregation Tiferet Shalom in Tel Aviv and an advocate for gay/lesbian ordination."My hope is that the backlash from this unfortunate decision will lead to a rethinking of this issue in a way that it more reflects what's happening in the Conservative movement worldwide."Though last week's unpleasantness has reportedly passed, advocates for the gay community are worried about how JTS's first class of openly gay and lesbians students will cope with Schechter's halachic stand on their lifestyle."If I was a gay or lesbian student studying at Schechter for the year, I would feel very uncomfortable being in an academic institution that is less than intellectually open," Rabbi Lazar said.
