    As in previous Tzores , many gedolim contribute it to talking by davening.

    Y2r
    Kavod for a shul has gone down big time I agree. I can’t say that this the reason for anything but there’s no question that we need to change the way we behave in shul and how we daven. All the talking and quickie minyanim have to stop.

    Is it possible that no one down here knows what causes Tzaros to happen? Perhaps no one is in that category of Gadlus or Nvius these days?

    Has anyone figured out with total confidence the reason the Holocaust happened?

    Perhaps we ought to just be as good and Trading as we can and leave the philosophizing and blame game out of it because its only a guessing game.
