    S’dei Chemed has a long piece defending the recital of Machnisei Rachamim.

    http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=43519&st=&pgnum=6&hilite=

    As HaLeiVi points out, the Mahara”l had two ways of defending it; although his conclusion is not to say it, he clearly would not consider someone who does say it to be in violation of the principle recorded by the Ramba”m.

    Charlie is completely off base here.

    I agree with Dr. Hall on this one

    Really? Would you drink the wine of someone who says Machnisei Rachamim? Would you drink the wine of someone who doesn’t believe in Moshiach?

    If the answers to those questions are yes and no, then you don’t really agree with him.

    What a chutzpah, and what small-mindedness, calling a minhag accepted by a very large segment of klal Yisroel “stupid”.

    “Halacha: anything written in shulchan aruch”

    Mechitzah isn’t in the Shulchan Aruch. Does that mean I can go to a non-mechitzah synagogue to daven?

    “in the majority, the ???”? is not followed.”

    Which just goes to show that Rambam’s 13 principles are NOT universally accepted today.

    No, it’s a legitimate machlokes whether that’s the kind of praying to malachim which is prohibited.

    There’s no machlokes about whether believing that we are moshiach is what the Ramba”m meant.

    Popa,

    He obviously knows less about slaughtering than he does about Torah (meaning, he knows negative about slaughtering since not only does he not know what does happen, but he even thinks things happen which don’t, as opposed to Torah where he just doesn’t know anything).

    I don’t understand the chilluk you’re making. He’s in negative territory on both, for the same reason.

    The issue is how this applies to individual issues that might be beyond the scope of Rabbinic expertise, or something in which they may not have all the information.

    It proves that if I want to know about who’s going to win a hockey game, I should ask you and not necessarily my rav, unless he has much more hockey knowledge than I think he does.

    Really? If I once predict the outcome of a sporting event, that proves to you that I’m an expert?

    And if your rav would predict who would win a game without any significant knowledge or research (assuming hypothetically that there was significance to the answer), I would tell you to get a new rav.

    makes entire institution of Yom Tov Sheni by Shovu’os even wishier washier than by Pesach & Sukkos

    Poskim say it actually might be more stringent, since it was instituted as a vaday rather than a safek (although I’m not sure I understand that; why should a “lo plug” be more chamur than the original din?).

    Either way, I agree with LF that the term “wishy washy” should not be used in this case.

    If you want to be fair, you would have to include their posts as well.

    I also don’t think your comparison is correct. One is a slur against people, and one us a slur against a day. True, it’s a day considered important by many people, but it’s still much less direct of an insult.

    That is one data point. Jabotinsky and Schoenberg, unfortunately, have six million data points on their side. 🙁

    I don’t understand. Are you trying to prove the faulty reasoning of the decision making process by the magnitude of the tragedy? (As if six million would have left at the beck and call of the gedolim anyhow.)

    It was invented in the 1990’s after the death of Rav Moshe ZTL

    It was used by Rav Dessler zt’l in a letter which refers to R’ Elchonon as “shlit”a” (1940s). It appears in S’ma (Daas baalei battim…).

    More importantly, the concept, if not the terminology, goes back to Chaza’l.

    We can start by looking at who instituted these days; Chaza”l vs., l’havdil, the Israeli government.

    Squeak is right that there’s kochi v’otzem yodi involved, and DaMoshe is right that the frum celebrants attribute it to Hashem. This has always been part of the debate surrounding RZ – the joining with kofrim on religious grounds is at the center of the issue.

    Sam, the passuk I quoted (see Rash”i), the sevara peshutah that someone steeped in Hashem’s wisdom will typically be wiser than one who is not, and life experience. See R’ Dessler for a deeper understanding. (My rebbeim didn’t necessarily go with R’ Dessler on everything, but it’s still a great m”m).

    Gavra, you put “chochom” in quotes. I don’t know to whom you refer, but I can assure you that I am more discerning as to who possesses “daas Torah” than it may appear. I am discussing the principle.

    There was no way for Da’as Torah to know the future, as they are not Omniscient. As such, they reasonably believed the people were safe (which they weren’t).

    Alternatively, understanding that the Holocaust was a Gezairah Min HaShomayim, Hashem blocked the “Einei HaEidah” from seeing what the potential danger was, as part of His master plan that needed the Holocaust (and all of the deaths) to happen.

    Both. Also, as simcha 613 posted earlier, there was a ruchniyus aspect to the decision, and that may have been balanced into the decision (although I doubt it could have been the sole deciding factor).

    Gavra, see Chazon Ish, Emunah Ubitachon, 3-30, who says in no uncertain terms that accusing chachomim of personal bias is considered mal’ig al divrei chachomim. He addresses the passuk you quoted.

    You might be right in some cases, because not everyone who carries the title Rosh Hayeshiva is necessarily a proper talmid chochom, but you’ve got to be very careful.

    Daas Torah is not infallible. There are situations in which one must follow ones own daas.

    No, daas Torah is not infallible. But of course neither is mine. So how would I know when to follow daas Torah and when to follow mine?

    I know you said to (ironically) ask your rebbe, but ha gufa; maybe the gedarim he’ll tell you are wrong!

    What I’m getting at, of course, is that despite a gadol’s fallibility, he still has a better chance of being right than a non gadol, so why wouldn’t you avail yourself of that for important decisions?
