There are shiurim galore around this time of year about the lomdus of the mitzvos ha'yom, the hashkafa of the chagim, etc., but I have yet to see anyone try to give a shiur on the topic of piyutim -- maybe that would be a place to start.<br />I am more troubled by the fact that at the early minyan I go to on weekdays it seems that the shat"z just mumbles through chazaras hashatz at the fastest speed possible in order to finish quickly and make the train. Forget whether anyone else is listening -- I don't know if he is even paying attention to himself.Chaim B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02231811394447584320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11287959.post-24970907942763140062011-10-10T18:21:59.863+02:002011-10-10T18:21:59.863+02:00Where does the Rambam say to abolish chazarat haSh...Where does the Rambam say to abolish chazarat haShatz?

It'll never happen, but it would make davening more bearable. I don't get into it that much, never have. I love almost everything else about Judaism, but forced communal prayer isn't exactly a spiritual experience. It's a "When it is over" feeling and "Not again." I know how to daven as well as the next guy, but the more spiritual experience for me is my personal dialogue with HaShem that I have every day, not being forced to wait for all the people who do enjoy it to clap their hands and shout them out over and over (or maybe they're faking, I have no idea).SF2K01https://www.blogger.com/profile/05065339128507952991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11287959.post-59032801537879413792011-10-09T12:05:40.567+02:002011-10-09T12:05:40.567+02:00We could try the Rambam's idea:
