    And if you are, do you admit it?

    It’s happened. I acknowledge those rare occasions.

    Actually, I thought so on one occasion but on further reflection I realized I was wrong.

    I may not always be right, but I’m never wrong

    You know the saying, to err is human to forgive is divine.

    To be trusted in what we say we must admit when we are wrong and not be like the boy who was crying wolf and was not believed when the wolf actually came.

    The Chasam Sofer said that the Rav gets siyata dishmaya in his pesak and he admitted being three times wrong in his life time.

    I thought I am indecisive but now I am not so sure about it.

    Reb Eliezer, If a Rav, or anybody else, is only wrong three times in their lives, they are nevi’im.. Most folks, including Rabiyim, are wrong hundreds of times in their lives. Of course, you have the distinction of only being right three times in your life

    ״My wife tells me that regularly״

    You have a smart wife 😜

    The reason I asked the question is because I see numerous threads where people are dead set in their view and don’t want to see the other side because then ch”v it would mean they’re wrong and they’ve been wrong for a while and that’s a scary thought

    Just my opinion btw

    CA: I suspect all of us engage in a degree of hyperbole on certain trigger issues in which we are emotionally invested. Doesn’t really mean we were “wrong” but certainly could have expressed our views or disagreement in more civil or artful terms.

    We all know the famous line of “we all make mistakes” and another famous line “no one is perfect”

    This is why Hashem created something very special called TESHUVA even before the entire world was created. Cause the world can’t exist without making up for our mistakes and confessing to them.

    If anyone thinks their always right and never wrong then they are wrong in that fact just mentioned above.
