Again, I’m not expecting you or anyone to agree with my assertations. But, I expect you to adopt the teachings of our universally accepted Gedolim like the Maharal and certainly the Talmud itself as pure unadulterated Toras Moshe m’Sinai. If you don’t understand something, come to it with the humility of someone who know that the teacher is correct, but the student simply hasn’t yet grasped.

you seem to get mixed up here
what was my claim ?
that many gdolim and talmidei hahamim disagree with your assertions and that therefore your assertions that “oaths are undisputed halacha” are plain incorrect.
no one ever said that chazal chvsh is not ‘pure unadulterated Toras Moshe m’Sinai’.
why do you have this ga’ava dik approach of “If you don’t understand something, come to it with the humility of someone who know that the teacher is correct, but the student simply hasn’t yet grasped.”
maybe it is you who has not grasped what rov talmidei hahamim grasped already ?
maybe it is YOU who should come to it with the humility of someone who know that the teacher is correct, but the student simply hasn’t yet grasped ?

we are arguing about the proper pshat and how to apply it to one of the biggest problems of our time
why all those condescending remarks ?
why insinuate that your debater is a kofer ?
is it because you are running out of “on topic real arguments” directly relating to the subject at hand ?

you should know – I may write in strong terms , but always aim at the subject at hand
I may employ rhetoric , but always highlighting the subject which at the center of the debate.
and not baseless insinuations that you are a kofer ….
