Dr. Seuss: I would have to think that he misspoke and no one caught it at the moment. I’m sure he said he misspoke to anyone that asked him. He wasn’t making a public speech and there isn’t a need for him to issue a press release saying he misspoke.
Sure, I accidentally say “Jesus runs the world” all the time. Whoops. (disclaimer:not)
This was a PUBLIC speech, and this clip is from the PUBLIC video. And this isn’t some backwater sholiach. This is the head of West Coast Chabad, the head of the Chabad Telethon, and no stranger to public speaking. Rumors of “Elokistim” and “Boreinu”niks abound. Just google the phrases. So when a very public chabad shaliach accidentally affirms the rumors publicly, he better retract them, or have other Lubavitchers retract and say he misspoke. the silence is deafening.
I showed the post to a Lubavitcher, and my friend showed it to two others, and all three defended the video instead of claiming he misspoke. but don’t take my word for it. Show the clip to your local Shliach and ask him about it. Google “Rebbe God” or “elokistim” and you will see that there is strong evidence for this belief being very widespread. Rabbi Cunin just proved how widespread it is.
Hashem runs the world, and Ain Od Milvado. Hashem Echad.
