I don't think I said that. My definition of Orthodox is: Shomer shabbos,
shomer kashrus, and taharas hamishpacha.

Then, let's reword this. Maybe "Orthodox" is the wrong word. Let's call it
"torah observant." I don't think the definition of "torah observant" has
changed in the last 100 years.

"Torah observant" also has a different meaning to many of us.

Serious Reform and Conservative Jews are Torah observant, as
they see the meaning of that.
