Ujm,

Regarding machati es harabbim see my earlier post to coffee addict.

“ The Rambam writes that if a Beis Din needs to execute 100 people per day, they can and should do so.”

Practically though, Sanhedrin shut down rather than try many Sotos and murderers. Tzoraas doesn’t happen today for the same reason.

When you look at Klal Yisrael, and how so many aren’t Torah observant, it seems from historical precedent, that Hashem would prefer we bring them close (lower the standard on who we regard acceptable to interact with, and with a Chassidus mindset- see them as a fellow Neshama waiting to be awakened), rather than close off more and more from others, so we have a better chance of our family staying perfect (no guarantees either way), and who cares about the vast majority of Klal Yisrael, including those in our communities who may have different struggles than us?

You remember why Hoshea Ben elah had the disgrace of the golus of aseres hashvatim happen in his time? For the same logic…
