The more I think about this the more incensed I become. In the wake of these postings I have checked out this yeshiva and its talmidim and they are nothing less than respectable bnei Torah in a respectable makom Torah. See for yourselves. Check out their website ybt.org and listen to a Gemorah shiur from any of their magidei shiur. Can anyone tell me that these shiurim are not of the highest caliber and the type that could be heard in any top-notch yeshiva that enjoys name-recognition? As for the “hashkafa”, listen to the hashkafa shiurim. Are any of things said in those shiurim not things that are firmly rooted in legitimate mekoros? If you are still not satisfied, do what I did and visit the yeshiva and see how fine the boys/young men are who learn there. See their midos and their commitment to Torah and mitzvos. If you are looking for a sea of black hats you may be disappointed to also see grey hats, blue hats and even some no hats. If you are looking for erliche bnei Torah who can rival those in any other yeshiva, however, you will be very pleased.

This discussion was about much more than Rabbi Chait’s qualifications as a Talmid Chocham it was about hist talmidim and his yeshiva. It is wrong for people to anonymously vilify others and offer no real evidence for their condemnations.

The discussion began by ‘kfb” asking for someone to explain the hashkafa at a given yeshiva. What ensued, however, was a bunch of unsupported comments about the yeshiva in question, its rosh yeshiva, its talmidim and an unnamed rebbi. I assume that nobody participating in this forum would choose or reject a shiduch or a doctor based on unsubstantiated assertions of this type. Why should any of us, then, draw conclusions about what may otherwise be a very fine makom Torah based on these comments?
Can anyone point to something specific that has been said, written or done by any memeber of this institution that is not in accordance with a legitimate position in our seforim hakedoshim?
