A few years ago, my son came home from Yeshiva. He told me about the discussions of the day in Yeshiva concerning the arguments between Rabbi Osdoba and Rabbi Schwai regarding the necessity of a filter for tap water. My son told me that the discussion became very heated amongst the bachurim and everyone began taking sides. I asked my son, “Which side did you take?“ He answered me, “When it comes to Rabbanim, I don’t take sides.”
I also have tried very hard to stay neutral, and B”H maintain a good relationship with both Rabbonim.
