A Reform Jew asked ר׳ שמחה וסרמן: “There are all kinds of Jews – Lithuanians, Sephardim, and many sects of Chasidim – why do we need so many branches of Judaism?”  רב וסרמן answered: “We’re like an army with different Divisions, each having a different function but striving with the same purpose.”  “So where do these of us who are Reform fit in?” the questioner asked.  “You,” the רב answered, “are the deserters; you’re AWOL.”
