Dear Avram,

A quick list of what they could be tried for;

1) The yeshivishe velt is abandoning the yeshiva and the yeshiva bochurim.

2) The appreciation of a Gaon who really knows his stuff, has fallen below the kollelman who spends a decade distorting a sugya and then tries to sell his chumros or whatever.

3) Some ugly divorces in prominent families are completely disregarding gittin and more.

4) The present leadership vacuum.

Most of all, and pertinent to many threads on this site, the equation of the right as Torah and the left as the Antitorah. Instead of talking Torah, yeshivahliet are becoming embroiled in culture wars that they understand little about. I’m not attacking their stance as much as them abandoning their great potential for such trivial matters.
