Neo-Hasidic Approaches to Animal Welfare - An interview with Rabbi Dr. Ariel Evan Mayse

An interview with Rabbi Dr. Ariel Evan Mayse. Rabbi Mayse is an assistant professor of Religion at Stanford University, and is a leading voice of the Neo-Hasidic movement. We discuss Neo-Hasidism and it's similarities and differences to traditional Hasidism, including it's approaches to Halakha. When limited to the dichotomy of leniency vs stringency, Neo-Hasidism is know for generally lenient views on many matters - but not when it comes to Kashrut and Tsar Baalei Chayim. We discuss Rabbi Mayse's halakhic teachings about animal agriculture and the environment. Recorded & edited by Alex Weisz "Uniq - Japan" is under a Royalty Free license.
