When something terrible and terrifying happens people are frightened. Getting mad at them does no good. In fact it usual makes them more afraid. Years and years ago I heard dear Mr. Rogers say, “When I’m frightened, I can’t learn.” I can’t do a lot of things when I’m frightened. Getting people to change requires first putting them at ease. If you truly want to change your shul’s policy you have to begin by seeing things through their eyes. Once you are with them you can walk them gently to the place you want them to be.
