1) I’m surprised to hear you think you cannot use a Chabad mikva unless in extreme situations maybe, do you know of any halachic basis for that? Because like I said and explained, this prototype avoids problems found with the other ones without putting any new ones.

2) I appreciate your support as I don’t want to be misunderstood, and I think that if I was super arrogant etc. Then I wouldn’t comment on this forum. My family and my in laws family has many friends in Satmar, and I grew up for a time in Postville where there was a wonderful Geula-like mix of all types of frum Yidden together.

That being said, I’m somewhat of an intellectual and enjoy discussion, so no, I was not pushed over the edge- I merely just don’t want to be misunderstood- but very much enjoy the discussion.

Also totally don’t get the non Ahavas yisroel part- please let me know where you think I failed in that? Because you’re 100% right, Ahavas Yisrael is the basis of everything, as Rabbi Akiva said- ze klal gadol baTorah.

Joseph- you have valid questions and I would love to address them. I’m afraid my time is up for today, and anyway we have gone way off topic from the original OP.

So if you really would like a deep discussion on that with sources etc, maybe open a new one and I’ll check back tomorrow or whenever I can:)
