Shlugging kaporos with live chickens is not a mitzvas aseh mi’doraisah any more than throwing apples at the Rebbe’s tisch or beating the guy in front of you with arovos if he stops suddenly during hakafos……the point being that we we neither disparage or vilify other yidden for their idiosyncratic minhagim or the particular way they choose to practice a mitzvas aseh (per the instructions from their LRP)…tolerance and respect go a long way towards achdus at a time the “A'” word is taking a terrible beating in so many other areas of our lives.
