Reply To: what do you think of daf yomi?

Sechel, Rambam writes for those who have limited capacity to process information, and he suggests his sefer. I do agree that there is audience for this in our times. At the same time, we have now lots of people who are capable of processing complex information in secular context and they can and should access Torah at the same level. Some of such modern sources are somewhat partial to a specific approach to modernity, whether yeshivish, modernish, zionist or chabad perspective. Learning gemora directly gives background that is less biased. And daf ensures that you get all pages, not selected by someone
