Micha:
«Isn't that the gemara's concept of "halakhah ve'ein morin kein"? »
B"H we were both m'chavein to discuss
"halakhah ve'ein morin kein" at about the same time - albeit addrssing different heicha timtzas.
Case 1:
Coffeemakers set to go off on Shabboss
I had a chat with a lamdan who attends a minyan with me at a nursing home. He starts asking loudly in shul, "takeh why can't we set up a coffee-maker to go off on shabbos?"
I was trying to shoosh him down because many unlearned people were around.
Finally I simply said: "halakhah ve'ein morin kein". And he immdiately "got it"
Yes technically this is so, but it's not a public topic especially for an unlearned public.
I have several more examples and I wil post them BEH
Editorial:
Lefties [esp C's] seemed to have lost this sensitivity. They ignore gray areas where meta issues would advise caution.
