Yid (MO Jew)-“And then you continue to put down the whole institution – and then you stopped making sense in your last two lines.
I think anybody reading this thread who sees the way people either defend or are pro YU and Touro would be put off by your absurd attacks and straw man defenses.”
You keep trying to bait me to defend myself and to keep putting YU down. I wasn’t interested in doing that from the begining and am still not really interested in putting down other Jews.
But you leave me no choice -so I will say a little bit. The President of YU has openly declared that MO is different than orthodoxy. To me that is saying we are like the Conservatives and Reformers and can bend Halacha when we Feel like it. What “Yeshiva”(???) do you know that openly has a Forum about “Toaivahniks”?
I wanted to keep this discussion of YU vs. Touro as civil as possible, but you won’t leave go. So I posted a little bit -I’m not interested in getting into a bash YU party.
