Reply To: Sam2 and R' Aharon Lichtenstein

Lior:

And I am anonymously reporting that R’ Rakeffet said it. So tha’ts another grain. And in Sam2’s response to the challenge (which I didn’t quote) he named three people from whom he heard the claim. So that is Sam2 anonymously reporting something. Add another grain. I was not attempting to definitively prove the claim to be true. I was lending it support by adding a source that is completely separate from Sam2’s sources, saying a very similar claim. I actually would have specified the shiur in which R’ Rakeffet said it, but I have a feeling that people will be distracted by the rest of the shiur.
