Tlik & GC; I don’t approve or disapprove of anyone’s behavior, Hashem and his Torah may though.
One of the definitions of a min/apikorus is not accepting even one mitzvah of the Torah.
I am not disagreeing with Rav Moshe zt”l or any other Posek chas veshalom as I am not even a Rav. I’m just pointing out a hashkafic or emotional aspect. If he had eaten pork in public in order to bring lost souls back to Yiddishkeit, would all his defenders feel the same way? What is the difference? Could he have used the same vacuous pikuach nefesh excuse?
