This is what gets me and lefi aniyas daati is the source of so much of the problem: CS writing about the rebbe’s nevuos.

They were not nevuos! In order to be nevuah it has to fit certain criteria and pass certain test (see Rambam Hilchos Yesodei Hatorah 7). Yes we believe in Ruach Hakodesh but not everyone who claims to have that does. And then there are some clever people who predict events that are going to happen due to a study of past and current events. That is not nevuah. To claim it is is to lower the standard of nevuah.

Unfortunately there is no nevuah nowadays and the only one who says there is is lubvatich, and guess who they say it about…

Just for our records, can you cite any authorittive lubavicth text published before 1950 that refers to nevuah in regards to the first six Lubavitch rebbes, the Maggid of Mezerich or the Besh”t? Why is it only about the last rebbe that we hear that he was a navi, or when he himself refers to his father-in-law as a navi?
