looks like aussie's more pro torah than squeak is.
I never let my SECULAR education get in the way of my TORAH learning.
right, auss?
Posted 6 years ago # -
Actually, what I said is as pro torah as you can get.
Posted 6 years ago # -
moish, I certainly didn't mean to let SECULAR education come before TORAH learning. What I meant was that learning should not be about covering ground (e.g. I learn for 12 hours a day, so I am the best) but about becoming educated in the ways of the Torah - its writ, its applications and guidelines, and its relevance. Far be it from me to push my personal hashkofos on anyone here. I am merely saying that the term "learning" is far too shallow to apply to Torah.
