Patur Avul Assur
As for Slifkin saying “Halacha doen’t change even when the science behind the Halacha was wrong”.
Do you read Hebrew or are you just copying and pasting?
Go back and read the letter that R’ Carmel a”h wrote about Rav Dessler’s position again.
Rav Dessler emphasized in detail exactly the opposite of Slifkin. Rav Dessler emphasized Halacha does’nt change because Halacha was not based on the science, Halacha was based on Mesorah and in Rav Dessler’s view chazal were merely suggesting reason’s based upon the modern day science.
So Slifkin say’s Halacha was based on Science.
Rav Dessler says that Halacha was based on Mesorah.
Can you see the difference.
Again like I said Slifkin’s entire approach has no basis, period.
