I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004. You can contact me at: IsraelMatzav at gmail dot com

Are certain rabbi type people more followable than the Torah? I'd say no.
The human job description outlined in the Torah is making the world a better place for human life. It is out of humans' job description to not make the world better for waiting. Or to let badness go on for waiting.
And, BTW, I've got the same response to Christians in places like the US, who may sit and observe flames, death and destruction, thinking it is Revelation unfolding. We have not been given the knowledge of when it is "Revelation" and when it is human Deatheaters rampaging, whom we need to face down as part of our making-life-better Torah job description.
