tzaddiq -“i’m not against them and i’m not for, but how can some posters burst out with such boldness to call others rodfim and other such names”
This is the Torah POV, not mine. Yes, people have different opinions about everything, but the problem is when your decisions affect others. If you told me that you think that vaccines are harmful -so you are keeping V’nishmartem, and you won’t ever let the kid outside your house – so you aren’t a Rodef -then fine.
But that isn’t the case, is it?
So how come people who get the vaccine and those that still come down with the disease aren’t Rodfim? Because they did their Histadlus -so they don’t have to keep their kid home for the rest of their lives.
