@PBA… you are dead wrong on this one. Some of these people are gedolim, if you know anything about Rav Yaakov Bender you would know he is not simply a “nice principal” but a tremendous gadol in the community of Far Rockaway. Please think before you say anything negative about such a person whom you’ve clearly never met
That is precisely my point. I don’t know anything about him at all. I am simply responding to one week’s edition of the yated, which I didn’t even read! I just heard about it, and am familiar with the concept.
We may have a different concept of what a gadol is. There also is no magic status called gadol.
I think I can criticize most every elementary school principal I know. And I think I can criticize ideas coming from unknown elementary school principals.
And I think you can criticize me.
