The sad truth is that you have institutions like Beis Yaacov inviting openly gay leaders like Christine Quinn to address their student populations. It is high time we listen to the likes of R’ Avigdor Miller, zatsal, and his talmid, R’ Yehuda Levin, and urge our mosdos to stop sacrificing Torah values for money.
If the Briskers and others are principled enough to not accept money from those they believe are wrong (Zionists), kal v’chomer, how much more must Torah Jews be vigilant in not accepting funds from those who seek to corrupt society in dramatic ways and bring us down the road of the Greeks and Romans.
If I may so have reshus from the moderators, I saw the following on Matzav: http://matzav.com/follow-up-the-danger-of-yct-and-its-extreme-left-wing-agenda#comments Apparently, YCT is advocating that we embrace gay couples who otherwise keep shabbos, kashrus, etc.
They were addressed by a rav from Tel Aviv who lead the Yakar shul, where he allowed a lesbian couple to have a kiddush in honor of their adopting a baby. He lamented in his shiur that many congregants left over this. (I wonder why).
It was obvious to me even years before I became frum that homosexuality was wrong and certainly nothing to be embraced. Anyone who believes that this is something to celebrate, whether at the polls, or at a shul kiddush, cannot logically claim to follow the Torah. There is a broader spirit to the law, so to speak, which I see many on the left ignoring when they advocate for the public acceptance of homosexuality and the erosion of gender differences, etc.
Where is the outrage?
