To the real Jews
I think you’ll find this interesting. When I got married I inherited my wife’s friends. One was a Chabad couple featuring a real nut job husband. They invited us for a Shabbos. It was 1991 and I knew nothing about Chabad. The guy told me that the Rebbe is Moshiach. I figured he was a crazy BT so I said that’s nice. A year later, post stroke, we were invited again. Again the host tells me the Rebbe is Moshiach. So I told him that he told me that the last time. We met at some event in 95 and he tells me the following, “The Rebbe is Moshiach. It doesn’t matter that he’s dead, because the Gemara says Moshiach can come from the dead. The Chofetz Chaim paskened otherwise, but who cares what he says.” I spoke to one of my Rabbis and he confirmed that the Chofetz Chaim did say that. A year ago I was fighting Chabad on line and I bought this point up. One psycho. Chabad answered, The Rebbe became Moshiach before he died so it’s not a contradiction to the Chofetz Chaim ‘s Psak.
