Reply To: What defines an Orthodox shul?

Charlie,

If a parking lot cannot be gated off, the spaces that are open directly in front of the shul should have a sign saying that the spaces are not available on Shabbat unless parked since Friday eve. Better yet, cones should be placed in them at Friday sunset. Nobody parks in a rabbi’s space on Saturday morning which has a RESERVED sign even though they know he won’t be using it. Isn’t the honor of Shabbat at least as important as the rabbi’s?
