Hacham, now you see my point. He made a statement, which clearly was not meant to last forever (I believe the quote here had the word “current”). So how do we know what he would say today? We don’t. I’m not saying he would say otherwise today, but I am saying that a statement made up to 40 years about what clothing we should wear (which has changed pretty often throughout history) is not necessarily a proof as to what we should wear today. Will R’ Miller’s statement means Jews should wear hats and jackets 100 years from now? 200? It obviously was not meant to be a P’sak L’doros, so how do we know when society has changed enough for that to change? The answer is we don’t. I’m not saying he would agree with me today; I’m just saying that his words do not necessarily prove anything.
Toi: That is one of the major things that is currently wrong in the Jewish world. We let one article of clothing identify who we are. Don’t you think that’s sad? When I see people, wearing their Tzitzis out (see the very strong Magen Avraham on that) not counted for a Minyan while people with a hat on but their Tzitzis tucked in are, I see a serious problem.
