Question

Hello Rabbi,
As I see here in your articles, you are very decisive and hold firmly to your view, and when something seems clear to you, you dismiss the opinions of anyone who says otherwise—from later authorities (Acharonim) all the way back to the medieval authorities (Rishonim), and even the Talmudic text [while accepting it only as an authority]. I would like to understand why the very fact that most people who thought about these same issues reached a different conclusion than yours [especially people who are presumably wiser than you] does not make you worry that perhaps you are mistaken.
Why is the natural barrier that every person has—not daring to disagree with a view that all the sages throughout the generations held to be true—not present in you? Does it really seem to you that you are hitting the truth more than the others???
[And please don't answer me, "This is what I think, so what do you want me to do," because even a small child who sees that everyone around him thinks differently than he does tends to dismiss his own opinion. So where do you get the feeling that you are not a small child in relation to such a vast number of opinions saying the opposite of what you say?]
