Oomis, (again!) Very beautifully written and expressed. Yes, folks here are putting their own kavod before HaShem and His Torah. They would do well to take a lesson from David hamelech and what he answered Michal when she berated that it was below his dignity by dancing so vigorously in front of the Aron.
I don’t have Hebrew here so I can’t quote his timeless words and most important lesson, it’s worth looking up.
No, regarding HaShems honour I’ll do ANYTHING, so should anyone else genuinely Jewish.
There is a lesser known Kibud extending the Torah belt and mantle to the one doing Gelilah. I always try to grab it. No, not at all a “lessening of my honor”.
I think there’s a Rambam about this, something about dancing before HaShem and his Torah, and about someone who doesn’t because it’s below his dignity.
