Reply To: Question to Toi on Modern Orthodoxy

greatest:

“When Rav Soloveitchik writes “as long as one can live without it so much the better for the spirit ” that clearly is him saying stay away from it as much as possible.”

That’s not true. I’m going to paste what I said before. “As long” – unlike “the more” – may well refer to different stages in life. Once one needs to confront secular culture, Rav Soloveitchik’s statement is not limiting the extent.
