And so the Motzi Shem Ra continues. The Litvish, of which I am a proud member, understand no less than the Chassidish or the Sefardim that “one can hold down a job and still be betzelem eloki (sic).”
Those who are so close-minded that they can not tolerate different points of view, those who feel so trapped by their own shortcomings that their only response is to belittle others, fail to see that the vast majority of “the Litvish” (by which they refer really only to “the Yeshivish”) actually are quite successful in all professions and areas of business.
Try tolerance, people. It feels good.
I second that last statement!
