And commenting on the lowering of standards for the title, Chacham Ovadia Yosef zatzal said succinctly, "גם תבן גם מספוא רב..."

I was wondering why my invitation had Rabbi crossed out.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Agav, that anectode about HaRav Shraga Feivel on the first page of the discussion is inaccurate. Rav Shraga Feivel did get semicha. He just didn't identify as Rabbi, regardless.
No one said he didn’t have smicha.

Smicha is a ridiculous bar for the title. You can have a tremendous T”c who’s learning full time for years without it, and you can have a fairly ignorant guy who memorized enough Halachos to take a couple month course and get some worthless accreditation.
