If you think women wearing tallis is wrong, then don’t do it.”
I don’t do drugs. it’s wrong. You should not either, because IT’S WRONG, but as long as you break no laws (well that would be difficult since they ARE illegal), I could not stop you from shooting up in private. Many things from which we refrain are wrong; wrong subjectively AND objectively. Something like this that causes public disturbance at the holiest site of the Jews, is no longer a matter of don’t do it yourself if you don’t like it.
It’s a little like smoking. If you smoke where I have to breathe, then you are infringing on my rights, which must take precedence over yours, because I want to be healthy and clearly you don’t. I am not stopping you from smoking in your owen domain. Just don’t bring your poison into the public one.
