Peace and blessings,
I will open my mouth in the sense of “And God opened the mouth of the donkey,” and ask the honor of His Torah, a question that plagues many who do not learn due to their shyness: How did the rabbi fall into Harediism in his time?
I, unlike the rabbi, experienced an “IQ drop” in the distant past in the crematoriums of an unfaithful kriya, the “Kiryat Malachi” yeshiva (Amit). The drop continued as I “advanced” and “elevated” in holiness, but unlike the rabbi, I fell into Harediism around the age of 16 (“I judge myself to be a “scoundrel”). The rabbi, with an “IQ” much higher than mine, fell into it when he was already a man of fine intellect. How is that possible?
The question bothers many, and I would be grateful if the rabbi would forgive me for my question and kindly answer it rather than censor it.
With blessings of a blessed and peaceful Shabbat

Too general a question. The question is what aspect of Harediism. I don’t see myself as part of a package deal, and I wasn’t one in the past either.

This is indeed the sore point, how did the rabbi manage to avoid a "package deal", after all, many left and right have been killed by Harediism, did the rabbi not initially treat Harediism as the "high road" and in his eyes it was only a "youthful response", a spiritual trip in the jungle of the Baraki people instead of the original South American, did the rabbi have a psychological problem, such as: the feeling of being the "complete Jew" in his religion and not as the one who ignores both clauses?

I have changed positions on various issues, and I have not usually dealt with a total and sweeping identity (Haredi, Zionist-religious, etc.). If there is a specific question, ask. If not, I will not answer anymore.

First of all, what do you think? And finally, what do you think?
