Furthermore, RMM claims there IS Psak when it comes to Hashkofo, and we need
to follow the majority
Sure. Depends who you count. :-) >>
I am confused. Even in strictly halachik issues no one claims today that we
follow a majority, that is why one should follow his LOR, ie one follows
one's
Rav and NOT the majority.
A trivial example is the argument over worms in Salmon. The OU paskens what
they think is right not what the majority says, Every kashrut agency has a
posek who
decides. I don't think any kashrut agency exists that says we dont need a
posek we just follow the majority of poskim.
Take a "simple" issue like saying Hallel on YH either with or without a
bracha.
Who one counts is essential and even more when.
It seems that most of the gedolim in EY indeed said Hallel in the years
1948-1950.
Mizrachi was the dominant force in the 1930s. Does that mean that one's
hashkafa must change over the years?
If the "majority" of poskim state that one cannot learn the shiurim of RYBS
(which some
have indeed said) would RMM stop learning what his uncle has said?
Certainly RHS paskens what he thinks and does not look for the majority.
