1) Please block my login as I had requested.
2) Old man, thanks for the laugh. The Rebbe ZYA spoke of the fifth son, who is so far from Yiddishkeit that he does not even come to the Seder. I am contrasting that with the second son, and we all know which son that was. Certainly you know that the Lubavitcher Rebbe himself had no children at all!
Your reference to the work of koifrim like Assaf and Friedman has no place on this board either. They’re just as busy ripping up other Admourim and roshei yeshivas as they are with Chabad.
If what those 2 koifrim wrote was true, even they admit we are talking about a case of mental illness. Given sanitation and medical care at that time, any infection could have entered anyone’s brain and caused psychiatric symptoms. We know that about a century later, a man named Theodor Herzl developed a brain infection that he got in a way that we don’t discuss on this site. The ramblings in his book are clearly the fruits of a diseased mind.
In the time of the Baal haTanya, it was possible to contract organic brain disease from infections caused by bad drinking water or raw sewage. Other delusions were caused by ergot, a fungus that grew on flour. So, even if he did have a son who lost his mind and did something crazy, it is not a reflection on anything.
And this is one more reason why I must go. The standards here have fallen greatly over the past few months. “Vehaya machanecho kodosh” is not just a song by Miami Boys Choir. It was why I continued posting here long after I gave up on all other sites, but now, the dark side has arrived here as well.
For the second time, please remove my login and mark my account blocked. I’m not a certain other poster who has a grudge and who will keep hitting the site with phoney accounts. I don’t have the time or the inclination to goof off, and I have no recourse if you do not remove my access, but I did contribute in my time and I ask that my wishes be respected.
Blocked per your request. We hope you will return for peerim
