“what is yours’ based on?”
The same scroll we all danced with on ST. Its the interpretation and hashkafa we seem to be at odds with.
Mine (the interpretation and hashkafa) is based on listening to what I have heard and seen in 40+ years of being around very respected, learned figures of the Yeshiva and Chassidish world. Not to mention a dozen or so years of classroom learning, and 20 or so years of contiuning education (the Orthodox+ brand).
So, as you can see, I’ve got a whole lotta ammo in my pencil box.
What I say, is a distilled version of what I have heard from the pulpit, from the press, from the people, whom the Orthodox world holds dear.
I’d show my position to the odom godol of your choice, and am pretty sure I’d be told, my approach to the DKS / Amanda story is the correct one for a Ben Torah to have, one that takes a stand against immorality.
Who’s got your back?
