It’s worth noting that R’ Nosson Slifkin has put his responses back up at Zoo Torah – The Book Controversy. Last month, in a noble attempt to bring closure to this issue, R’ Slifkin took down his responses, lest anyone mis-interpert them. However, after about a month with no evident effort by his accusers (there are my words, not his), he has restored the site. Personally, I’d like to see this concluded, and not just hushed up or swept away, even if he were to win. I think the issues here are too important to have an “out of court” settlement, but I could understand his reasoning last month. Nevertheless, I’m glad to see that he is continuing to fight for what is right. His comments on his reasons are also available.
