Reply To: Clarification to mod and DaMoshe

Arso,

“ (I don’t know whether that ‘teaching’ is factual, but I’ll run with it anyway.) The two are not comparable. A Malach has no bechira, so he is therefore perfect despite being willing to ‘give up everything…’. The Chazon Ish was human with a bechirah, and therefore saying that he is jealous in Gan Eden is indeed denigrating.”

You’re saying because even he, was lacking something?
Ok- I see that- the context was discussing the maalos of learning Chassidus- I wouldn’t use that source as proof of the Rebbes care of not Chabad (because the point was pointing out something lacking), but there are many other places to see it.

“CS: Now, if the Rebbe treated others outside lubavitch, disdainfully in general…”

“True he didn’t treat others outside Lubavich disdainfully, but he did treat other shitos disdainfully. I can’t be bothered now bringing proofs, but they are numerous.”

Yes I’d assume there are other shitos within Yiddishkeit that you wouldn’t agree with, and as opposed to people, it’s important to point out flaws with other shitos that won’t end up leading yidden in the desired direction.
