CS: RSo never said anything even kind of like what you’re accusing him. You aren’t going to trick anyone into thinking he did. To summarize:
-He brought a proof from the Chofetz Chaim, which almost actually helped your side
-You criticized him for using a Litvish rabbi as a proof
-He referenced HaRav Shach
-You criticized him for using a Litvish rabbi again and decided to coin the phrase “Rav Shach excuse,” which I’m surprised but glad they allowed through to show how little respect Chabadniks have.
-You were asked for an obvious clarification on your position on geula on a thread about geula
-You skirted the issue and referred us to a thread on which you skirted the issue relentlessly for 19 straight pages
Do any objective posters see anything inaccurate about this summary?
CS: What did you want to get out of us from this thread? Was it just to solicit out-on-context quotes to make Litvaks look bad? Was it an earnest attempt to convince less-knowledgeable people that Chabad Meshichism is compatible with the mainstream?
I think our position is pretty crystal clear: we hold, like our rabbis, that meshichism is kefira. That’s not an “excuse,” that’s how we posken. You can’t get away with continuously making threads that you think are subtle in their meshichism and then accuse us of being the ones turning it towards that subject. There’s just no point; we’re always going to see through it.
