Nomesorah; you find it creepy that a person who feels robbed of yiddishkeit might have a lot to say about the thieves thereof? Perhaps you were raised very frum and are not aware of the communal sinfulness and ignorance that MO has permitted/encouraged. When I was exposed to authentic yiddishkeit(and no i don’t mean only litvishe) the difference was night and day. Do you really think there is “equal ground” between a system which foments institutional heresy and a system, flawed as it may be, which promotes complete uncompromising observance of mitzvos and the primacy of torah? Are there”relevant torah sources” that say that an ideal Jewish boy should go to goyishe rock concerts, have goyishe friends, dress completely like a goy save for a small piece of fabric lost in “blurios* of long hair, eating “only salads” at treif restaurants, violating 5 laavin with each bite, together with his illicit girlfriend, with whom he violates more laavin and worse routinely, his speech laced with nivul peh, on a lazy Sunday devoid of torah learning, finished off with the imbibing of a movie that reinforces his heretical pro-lgbt beliefs? He wakes up, may or may not wash negel vaser, might forget his tzitzis, is maybe reminded to go to minyan, but might not be in the mood.. Everything goes and chas veshalom if he’s made to feel guilty or pressured..
I’m interested to hear what “sources” permit this typical day in the life of an MO non-otd teen.
