Dear Yserbius,
Point blank question: If the learn ten hours a day approach is an ideological one, why do the RY of the ten hour (as you insist.) a day Mesivta make known his preference to English?
Now if it’s allowed let me fill you in. The real issue is, where would you find competent teachers? This is so obvious, I don’t know how you or UJM convinced yourselves that this a matter of choice as opposed to circumstance.
I give up on trying to correct you about Lakewood. The place you describe does not exist.
The disaster you spell out is meh to me. There is enough secular knowledge in Lakewood. If anyone listens to them or not, is not because of their high school education.
Lakewood has many basic differences than Israel. No comparison.
Next point blank question: Do you think even one of these teens turned to violence because he was denied from doing a detailed analysis of the spores on amanita mushrooms?
If anything it’s about not being denied the knowledge of a first hand experience of mushrooms.
