Reply To: Does “Chasidish” refer to both Satmar and Lubavitch?

Daas,
“Apikorsus”
You remind me of a story that happened in Brisk, the Gabai once announced a certain Chasid as in Cherem, the reason given “for he spoke אפיקורוסות”.
Rav Chaim Brisker who was there asked him, what exactly was the מינות ואפיקורסו? He replied the Chasid said that the Rebbe (of Slonim) is as big as רשב”י. Rav Chaim answered, had he said Rav Shimon is like the Rebbe..nu! Then yes.
But all he said is that his Rebbe is like Rabbi Shimon, nu he is “Stam a meshugenah’ though not an Apikorus!
