Just saw this; I’m with VM.
OOM: I don’t know why you think it is impossible to value seminary and to make a generalization that it is a waste of money.
Nor do I know why you think it requires a close and objective study for people who are living in that world. In a world where your wife, your sisters, your mother, your sisters-in-law, your wife’s friends and co-workers, etc, have all gone to seminary–I think it is fair to say that you are able to understand the dynamics to a reasonably intelligible level.
And with all that so, I think seminary is a scam. See my published works. http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/new-seminary-by-popa
