Question is, does he represent the opinions of OO, or are these just his twisted, delusional,( apikorsish) views?
We have here someone claiming to be a Rabbi with smicha from YCT writing apikorsos in a very public forum. The WSJ is portraying him as an Orthodox Rabbi. Rabbi Hoffman took umbrage to this and therefore wrote his piece in order to try and publicize the fact that not all Orthodox Jews consider this man to be Orthodox. If YCT truly feels the same way then they too should be making a public machaah and should also revoke his smicha. From the fact that they haven’t, we can see that they obviously agree with him and feel that he represents their views.
