You responded: How is it you so assuredly presume they did? While There were some who did their closest respected Colleagues perceived it as naivete on their Part”
1. I think it’s (beyond) presumptuous to ascribe naivete to the likes of Rav Moshe.
2. Her presumption is only in the word “extreme” as well as the conclusions she derives. The fact that he was accepted as a Gadol by a number of other Gedolim is a matter of public record. Furthermore, even after the insanity that followed his patira the Agudah refused to come out against Chabbad (The RCA eventually did issue a machah of sorts). See Rabbi, Dr. David Berger’s book on the subject (which is warmly endorsed by Rav Aaron Feldman).
I only bring this up because you called me out on a similar point an number of threads back in a conversation with CS and I didn’t respond at the time.
On another note…
Mods, why did my last post not get approved? Is it because I quoted the non-testament to demonstrate how a very (in)famous individual used the concept of memutzeh ha-mihaber?
