To Meno:
Getting objective and non-judgmental advice on matters of halacha online when you don’t have physical or electronic access to a rav/posek with whom you’ve established a personal relationship Is a lot better than simply not getting any advice.
To Joseph:
My virtual wife assures me that she much prefers our electronic relationship than having to deal with me in a physical reality. Also, while Toras Moshe is “judgmental” there is no reason why a rav who professes to be knowledge about Toras Moshe must be judgemental. In fact, one of the greatest midos shared by both Rav Moshe’ Z’TL, and the Rebbe , ZTL, was how each was known for never denigrating or disparaging someone who came to them for advice. They were not shy about offering their views of what the Torah objectively required but at the same time never verbally abused a yid who professed to not having met that ideal.
