To Obamanaz v’Pashuteh Yid:

“Amolege tzeiten”, G’dolim were well versed in all aspects of the sciences and music and philosophy and even literature; granted though it may not have been learned through formal education. In more recent times, we have had G’dolim and have G’dolei Torah who have studied in universities in Europe and also in the United States, including Yeshivas Rav Yitzchok Elchonon (YU).

Just as there is no one Rav for everyone, so is there no one yeshiva or one derech of learning for everyone. Someone who may shteig in learning in one yeshiva may not have the same hatzlacha in another.

So let’s stop with all the loshon harah about various yeshivas and g’dolim.

From your logic, any yeshiva or tzadaka or individual who seeks and receives government funding or advocates for politicians with pro gay shitas is also endorsing the government’s shita regarding gays.

It’s a fact that YU is a cash cow for Yeshivas Rav Yitzchok Elchonon and the high school which have deficits totaling $millions each year. So if you want Yeshivas Rav Yitzchok Elchonon, which of course does not advocate gay or toeiva, to refuse funding from YU, then you need to hold all yeshivas and tzadakas and individuals to the same standard and they have to refuse funding from sources who do advocate these abominable lifestyles and behaviors.
