Dear all Coffee Room participants,
I sit here today reading this section of the most beautiful frum roundtable discussion. Even though I personally know Rabbi Boteach, I will not take any side of the argument. Though I would like to share with you my personal holistic view on what is happening here. I feel like I would like to stress one point that was not inculcated to us.
We sit here writing about random topics, people, yeshivas, rabbis, organizations etc. It is just coincidental that it also happens to be Elul. Putting all that into consideration we still feel a need to blast Rabbis publicly, when WE are the frum crowd that should be better than the outside world. Not realizing that #1 its lashon hara, #2 its Elul, #3 we are talking about REAL people. (publicly)
I wish you all a inspiring Elul!!
