[Avodah] Reb Shraga Feivel Mendlowitz on RSRH's 19 Letters

[Ben Waxman]

I never said "cavalierly switch" and I have no reason to believe that Rav
Mendlowitz's sons changed their path without putting thought into it.

Anyway, there is a difference between switching minhag and switching
hashkafa.

There are some texts, like Rashi on the Torah, which really have to be
learned by everyone. I don't think that that applies to Rav Hirsch's books.

So it seems to me that one cannot cavalierly switch.

Anyway, we are talking here of studying the writings of RSRH. How can anyone
be against this or say that this does not "do it for him"?
