And another story - after my son had had his gerus (conversion) with a
frum beis din, endorsed and promoted by the rosh yeshiva of our city,
and after he had celebrated his bar mitzvah at our shul with great joy
and fanfare and with the good will and best wishes from the entire
congregation, and after he was a weekly presence at shabbos minyan,
for a year or two after that, when the shul hired a new rabbi, the new
rabbi had the chutzpah to start grilling me about my son's gerus with
a phony story that "the board members of the synagogue were wondering"
about my son's conversion. ?Grrrrrr!!!!!

Nasty! He sounds a bit dishonest, and a bit dumb, is he too stupid to
realise the whole community, board included, knew about your son's gerut?

Apparently. He apparently acted impulsively WITHOUT first consulting
the board of trustees because they would have told him.

It sounds more cowardly than totally dishonest. ?He figured since he had
questions everyone else did do and did not want to own up to it being his
questions,.

Except he blew it because nobody else had any questions.

Exactly. Since he wondered he assumed that everyone else thought like he
did. and of course we all know what assume means.
