To rescue

Sadly, you write like an angry schoolboy who can’t get a date for the prom, but I’ll respond to your post as if you actually asked a lucid question. There are several basic differences between those, like yours truly, who criticize Chabad, and your nasty rants. First, neither I nor Yankel Berel nor philosopher has ever expressed any personal antipathy for Lubavitchers. As I’ve stated on numerous occasions, I daven regularly in a Chabad shul and have been doing so for more than a decade. We criticize only Chabad’s deviations from legitimate Judaism. You, on the other hand, have never said anything nice about what you call Litvish Judaism. Here’s a newsflash, neither I nor philosopher, nor yankel berel (I think) are Litvish. I agree with you that there are Yeshivish people who are dogmatic and others who are obsessed with materialism. I don’t blame you for finding fault with them, I don’t like many of them either. However, they are not Kofrim as are Lubavitchers. We have proven this point countless times. There’s a major difference between having bad character and between rejecting the philosophical underpinning of our religion. That you can’t see this reflects very poorly on you. I have no problem discussing matters with you, but if you simply want to make grandiose statements to boost your ego, then find someone else to talk to. As Paul McCartney wrote, “Life is very short and there’s no time for fussing and fighting my friend.”
