“Mikehall, while I have a lot of respect for Rabbi Tendler, to the Yeshiva World, he is an extremely controversial figure”.

too you, but not for me. Is he controversial because he supports Zionism and went to a secular university? For many ortho Jews that is not an issue at all…I assume Rav Moshe Feinstein had no issue with him as he allowed him to marry his daughter….the bottom line is we have the freedom to follow whom we wish, not everyone is going to agree on every issue, but just because it may be something you may not be comfortable with, does not make it wrong. As Jews we have enough problems with the outside world, the last thing we need is more problems and conflicts from within.
