“There is no such thing as a Nossi hador, and I’m going to keep on pointing it out whenever you use it. Your rebbe made it up and anointed himself with it.”

That post wasn’t to you but sure I can explain. You don’t have to use the term Nossi hador you can use what you want. It’s just simpler for me because it’s two words instead of two sentences. My point was that the Rebbe wasn’t a regular Rebbe. Instead he saw his mission from Hashem to be the Rebbe of every Jew, and took responsibility to reach out and be there for every Jew. Also, he saw that our generations mission is to bring moshiach so he developed a practical plan to make that happen both on a world scale and in a way that would include every Jew. (You like that better than the two word phrase Nossi hador? I simply find it much simpler to use.)

This is fact. And this is what differentiates the Rebbe from others because we have many great leaders in klal Yisrael who look out for their kehilas needs and are also happy to advise and give brachos to anyone who comes their way. But that is not the same as taking responsibility for every Jew the way the Rebbe did by sending his own best and brightest out for the sake of others. This also explains why the Rebbe made so many unusual statements … Because he had a different role so that comes with a different mode of expression…

As far as the sundial thing, I’ll just reiterate that I stand by my above post addressing that, and will also add that in the story itself, it notes that the sundial not working only several hours a day was not a common thing (ie most sundials do not work that way) and it had puzzled many great experts for that reason.

So yeah to take a prototype sundial experiment from third grade, when sundials are not even in use nowadays and to use that to say the entire book is fiction seems silly to me.
