I personally think that you are misinterpreting the Rambam (and I have the feeling that you would agree with me), and possibly misapplying the words of Rav Miller, who was trying to warn the kehilla of the dangers of television to our soul, not pointing to specific people and saying, “You sir, Plonie, are bound for Gehenim.”
Maybe, maybe not. All I know is that if I ever dare suggest that the Rambam or whoever isn’t meant to be taken literally or may have a different application in today’s world, I manage to generate enough people saying the equaivelant of “the Torah is eternal and always applies the same in every age and how can you say the Rambam (or gadol X) means differently.”
