Reply To: Am I Wrong About This?

Sheepishmusings is a better name for you you!

Why do you seek to insult sheep by associating them with me?

you couldn’t be wronger! “Am I wrong?!” I think that the whole point of the speech is to keep the congregants that can’t learn Torah on their own busy. Obviously those that can handle learning, like my shul in Brooklyn don’t need such elemantary antics, such as a “rabbi’s shmuz”!

Do you *really* think that that’s the *only* reason for a rav to speak — for those who are unable to learn on their own?

And even if that’s the case, you don’t think that there’s an element of disrespect in not paying attention when someone’s talking to you?
