But they are a distinct minority, yet somehow they feel confident enough to call those that follow the vast majority of Torah scholars “idolaters”!
You can’t just say my position is absolutely right and anyone who questions it is a “heretic” or even a “idolater” because I have a Gadol backing me if the other side has 10 times more Gedolim backing them!Its of course hard to verify this, but everything corelated with faithfulness is off the chart so our best assumption should be that faithfulness is as well.

Paleing and beginning to sweat he asks “m-m-m-my d-d-d-dear m-m-mother in law wha wha whaaat b-b-b-b brings you here.” “Oh I came to visit.” Sweating even more he asks, “T-t-To V-v-visit?! F-f-for how long.” “Oh. as long as I am wanted.”
Smiling the man replies “Oh my dear mother in law you have come from so far away, bought so many suitcases and you won’t even come in for some coffee?
