Wolf-
Speak the truth? Ok, please do.
What is the significance of something written in Shulchan Aruch?
I am not asking about mixed seating.
Or mixed swimming.
Or Al Tarbeh Sicha.
I am not asking what it isn’t.
I am not asking why frummies are wrong.
No negatives.
I am asking what it is. Not what it is not.
What difference does a statement in Shulchan Aruch make in our lives?
How should we treat a statement, from hundreds of years ago, based on the opinion of someone we never met – that is, R’ Yosef Karo, and R’ Moshe Isserles?
They also lived in very different times, and led very different lives.
What do their published words & opinions mean in our lives? That’s it.
Truth, please. That is what you speak, right? Please be clear and precise. What is it? What is it , in your honest opinion? What do you, personally, live by?
