A Very Painful Problem that can Tear Apart the Torah World

There is a new and troubling problem now in the Torah world. A well-known rabbi from a prominent Torah institution who has worked intensively to build Torah in America was suddenly catapulted by a State Assembly who resigned to replace him. But for whatever reason, the policies of the previous Assemblyman were to remain as the old Assembly made them. And he was it seems a strong liberal. If so, what should the many institutions and prominent Torah organization do about this? And should the well-known rabbi be forced to negate his acceptance of anti-Torah ideas?

The questions that bother me are two: One, what should the new Assemblyman do about his commitment to follow the old Assemblyman? And two, what about the prominent Torah institution and the many people helped by this new Assemblyman. Are they all to ignore the hideous decision for a prominent rabbi to promote gays?
