The more time a person can spend learning Torah, the better. We should support Torah learners.

“Also, should Israeli bochrim be forced to serve in the army?”

No.

“Why is there such a shidduch crisis?”

Because we aren’t following the advice in Pirkei Avos of Shemoneh Esrei L’Chuppah.

“Is modern orthodoxy problematic?”

Yes.

“Why do people use labels like yeshivish, how accurate are labels anyway?”

Inaccurate and should be eliminated.

Usually.

“cholov yisroel- whats the deal?”

A baal nefesh should not consume non-CY (i.e cholov stam).
