To LA boy
Manis Friedman is arguably the most famous Chabad Rabbi in the world and therefore your attempt to marginalize him is fooling no one. Moreover, the Chabad leadership refuses to denounce him which implies that they agree with him. And then we have Shlomo Cunin who publicly stated that it’s the Rebbi and not Hashem who runs the world. Again, the Chabed brass are silent. But we shouldn’t be surprised that Manis is a Kofer since the Rebbe was also a Kofer as he rejected the Gemara in Cheilek which said that only 1/300,000 Jews will be redeemed by Moshiach. As for you intimation that I dismiss all Chabd as irrelevant. That’s simply a lie. They serve valuable functions, providing Kosher meals and minyanim for travelers, and reaching out to the disenfranchised. My point, and the others on YWN agree, is that their propaganda that they are the face of Judaism is nonsense. An atheistic, idolatrous religion cannot be the vanguard. Checkmate.
