To all posters: To refresh my memory about Rav Shlomo Goren and the “langer case” (that was the family’s name), I googled Rav Goren and Langer. You will see that the reasons that the Poskim of that day who opposed Rav Goren used are exactly the OPPOSITE of the reasons given now to support Rav Sherman. (Incidentally, it was Rav Attias who wrote the first psak ,invalidating the geirus) So, hypocrisy is rampant, except that Rav Goren did it to AVOID mamzerim and the present ruling will bring about mamzerim. There are many other differences but this is the substance of the arguemtn and Rav Goren really had the better of it.
