“”What a horrible story!”
It figures. Only you would say that a rav standing up for the honor of Torah is a horrible story. I suppose you would have liked it better if he allowed people who arent frum according to him to be eidim? “
Moshe, the way the story was originally posted, it did sound horrible. With the additional details, the story is different. And, I would hope that even those who don’t hold by the eruv recognize that someone who is following their LOR’s shitta is still an observant Jew. Unfortunately, I have come across rabbonim who don’t, but I would like to hope that most do.
A question for those who don’t hold by the eruv – what do you do for family simchas? We have my SIL’s sheva brachot this Shabbos in Brooklyn and I have a newborn. Are you all stuck in the house all the time and can’t attend your sibling’s affairs?
