Reply To: What Are The Gedolim Saying?

anon1m0us: The Gemora (Mesechtes Shabbos 62b) says a reason for the destruction was too much cosmetics. The Gemora also gives multiple reasons why the Beis Hamikdash was destroyed. One reason doesn’t contradict another. They all are valid. Do you also have an objection to the Gemora telling us the Beis Hamikdash was destroyed because of sinas chinam? According to the krum logic you are using, only Hashem knows why the Beis Hamikdash was destroyed. Same with the holocaust. The reasons given by the Satmar Rebbe, the Chazon Ish, Rav Miller, Rav Henkin, etc. are all valid and correct.
