I think people misunderstand other people's misunderstanding of RSRH's Torah Im Derech Eretz (TIDE) model. <br><br>Proponents of TIDE think the chareidi perception is that RSRH only intended it as a Horaas Shaah. <br>
<br>I think the Israeli and Lakewood Chareidi perception is that TIDE WAS a horaas shaah, suited to German Jewry's needs, regardless of how RSRH viewed it. <br><br>There is a big difference between the two perceptions.<br>
