We thank everyone for sharing their opinions and thoughts in here, and quoting the various illustrious personalities on what they have said throughout the years.
Whilst we do wish to continue threads, and are against closing them for spurious reasons, we do have to take into consideration many factors.
Everyone will agree that Gedolei Yisroel have reasons for saying things. However, it is not for us to possibly argue with their words, and conflict them with things that other Gedolei Yisroel have said.
Therefore, in order to avoid this happening, and not have the possibility of not acting with Derech Eretz towards them, this thread will, for the moment, be closed.
