Because I need to keep the Rabbi until I get married for Shidduch reasons and then I'm leaving the Shul like a hot potato.

He meant what he said that even if we know who Amalek is we shouldn't kill them but simply learn Torah. And when our enemies rise up against us to kill us the Rabbi would say the same thing, don't fight them but simply learn Torah. He's a full fledged fool.

We don't know who Amelek is. Today we can only fulfill that Mitzvah by wiping out the Sofek.

That is my point. You are so used to quoting drush in place of pshat that you did not even bother to explain to anyone that Amalek is the same numerical value as Safek(doubt).
It is so simple in your mind that it doesn't need an explanation.

The Rabbi said in his speech that when the Torah says we must wipe out Amalek it doesn't mean we should physically go out and wipe them out with fighting and weapons. He said this isn't our way. The Jews should just sit and learn Torah and by learning Torah that will take care of Amalek. What an idiot. Even better, is that his father was a survivor and lost his entire family in Europe in the Holocost. Fools never learn.

That is a stupid rabbi. Good luck with the shudduch..
But if you are getting a shidduch, might you and your future wife have vastly different political views? seems a bit risky.
