סערת מלכה פיוטרקובסקי: לאן נעלמו הרבנים האמיצים?


 
1.What do you think about this article?
2. You say there is no connection between Torah and morality. It doesn’t bother you if God is a chauvinist or a racist?

1. He claims that rabbis should try to study the Torah like the Amoraim in order to rule on halakha. Do you agree with this?
2. Dog’ for racism: It is forbidden to marry Gentiles. Dog’ for chauvinism: Girls do not inherit when there are boys. (And whoever gives an inheritance to girls is completely bypassing the original Torah law) Don't these laws bother you?

1. In principle, it is possible to demand the Torah if we knew how to do it. I have invested quite a few years in understanding the methods of preaching and in most of the material I have not reached an understanding that would allow me to use them. It is easy to talk about demanding the Torah, but difficult to implement. If people want to achieve the results they desire, they can wave the demanding the Torah as a slogan. Those who want to demand the Torah should be respectful and make an effort to decipher the ways to do so. Otherwise, they are essentially intending to do what they want and then present a “sermon” (alek) that will justify it.
2. It definitely bothers me. But as long as I do not understand the basis of these laws and the methods of preaching, I do not always have a way to deal with it. I expanded on this in the third book in the trilogy (where, contrary to all those who declare, I tried to make a comprehensive investigation of the possibilities and ways to do so).
