For much of 2015, every effort was made, on both sides, to send American Modern Orthodoxy into schism and compel the formation of a separate denomination called Open Orthodoxy. These efforts have often been disingenuous or irresponsible, and each side is accountable for its official and auxiliary spokespersons. But it would be equally disingenuous and irresponsible to deny that there are deep substantive issues in play.
