I just read a terrible thing here.

We do not know the cheshbonos of the RBS”O.

We don’t need all the answers.
Ashreinu- we were given the Torah. We were put on this earth to learn Torah and observe Mitzvos.

We have no right to make calculations or cost benefit analyses regarding their accomplishments.
The only choice we have is to join them, support them, or ignore them.
