Reply To: most intellectual seminaries?

frumnotyeshivish: You make a very valid distinction; however, in this case it is misapplied. There are seminaries that are academic and there are seminaries that are intellectual and academic. And the latter aren’t as scarce as you seem to believe. So while perhaps the OP didn’t phrase her question correctly (which you really should have realized), and while it’s probably nonsensical to judge on intellectual capacity alone, I don’t think it’s invalid to judge seminaries based on their intellectual capacity b’chlal. Plus, I don’t think your assertion that the seminary experience is not much of an intellectual endeavor is correct. And I’d also like it if you argued your points with a little more “proof” and a little less sophistry.
