Reply To: The Modern Orthodox “Mesorah”

Avira, I don’t see any of those quotes saying that.
I was taught that all knowledge is valuable, because the Torah contains everything. When you study, it’s just another way of understanding the world Hashem created, and understanding the Torah, even if you don’t directly see the connection at the time.
As R’ Charlop said, everything should be viewed through the prism of Torah.
