Yom Kippur should still be in the bones of all synagogue participants. Its spirit should still be felt with every prayer. The truth is that no prayer in the coming year could ever be the same. Anything else makes jollity of Yom Kippur, the Ten Days of Repentance and the essential meaning of Teshuva. They ought to be taking action to change that situation.
Nothing is more dangerous in religious life than indifference.
Delving further, one discovers a serious flaw in modern religious life. On some level it seems that many religious people do not fully believe in their prayers on the High Holidays. While crying to God hundreds of times on Yom Kippur that He is the only One, they seem to deny this fact the next day when their prayers are, again, said out of habit. By saying that God is the only One, people express their absolute belief that God is the only real Power in this world and the Source for all life. It should bring a transformation, wherein ever human being should wake up.
