Rabbi Miller on knowledge of secular subjects

 Q:

Why do you oppose the study of secular subjects? Didn’t the Vilna Gaon study secular subjects?


A:

I didn’t mention secular subjects at all tonight. I did not mention it at all, so I’m innocent. However, on the question of secular subjects, there’s no question at all that knowledge of secular subjects comes in handy. No question at all; very handy. The problem however is where to get it from; that’s something else.


Rabbi Avigdor Miller, TAPE # 60
