LB -sorry, but you are missing the point here. ZD was not the one having his buttons pushed. A false accusation was made against Yekke2 and he had to be defended.
“I don’t get this thread. I think it’s staging a situation so you can say that Hey, he did say not to listen to halacha.”
No one staged a situation besides ZD. He made up the situation in a previous thread as part of a discussion about listening to halacha in order to show that there are situations in which he doesn’t think that one should listen to halacha.
That statement of his was kefira (whether or not it was intentional) and therefore Yekke2 felt it necessary to say something in order to stand up for Hashem and the Torah’s honor. Hashem and the Torah had been debased by the statement that a person can know better than what Hashem says in the Torah. That is what the discussion is about.
I think that some of us (such as DY and myself) were hoping that ZD would say, “no, of course that is not what I meant at all” and would take back his statement and explain what he meant. We gave him several opportunities to do so.
I am still hoping that that will happen eventually. But as long as attacks are made on either the Torah or other posters, it is necessary to defend them.
