Zeh Ha'Ikar

In the middle of a particularly disjointed article, Arye Geffen wrote:
I do not wish to lecture on emunas chachomim, the trust we must place in our wise Torah leaders; this subject is as old as the hills. I would like to dwell upon the "wise guys", that is, the people who believe in their own cleverness, who think highly of themselves and feel superior to others.

I am not referring to those who choose a different way of life or who were born into a different ideological framework. Each flock has its shepherd; the wise man will anticipate the future, and our camp were wise to think of future developments and plan accordingly.
Believe what you want, as long as you don't think for yourself.
