Avi K – sorry Avi, I give HaKatan credit for having drastically adjusted his approach. This time around I have to say you are just picking a fight. Firstly, because this:
It’s very possible that even an “Orthodox” Jew – especially one who spends his time on areas of *thought* that are outside of Torah – might have an improper hashkafa.
is not motzei shem rah. It is warning someone what can happen when someone spends time on areas outside Torah. Not even sure how you can disagree with that.
Second, if you really could care less about the halacha aspect, his post is not the one you would have addressed.
