sam2- I only know YCT because it is the yeshiva founded and led by Rabbi Avi weiss. I don’t know the people you mention nor do I know their piskei halacha. If you tell me where I can find them, I’ll look them up. It is hard to believe that they deny “mesorah” Please show sources.
itche srulik- you seem to agree with me- almost totally. i know little about their approach to halacha- will be pleased to look at the sources.
All I said was that the way they are being mocked and “tarred and feathered” (english expression) is unacceptable to me. If you allow this approach to dominate, you allow the same thing to happen to Rav Kook’s shittah, to the shittah of Lubavitch and anything that veers-ever so slightly- from the yeshivish world. Again- “hizharu chcomim bedivreichim”
