Reply To: Why People Go Off The Derech

i think we can all agree on a baseline. for example certain chassidim hold of the boro park eruv. mainstream litvish doesnt. modern orthodox does. but we all agree that were there no eruv at all carrying on shabbos would not even be up for discussion.

also as far as im concerned, the ways by which a person can go off the derech, and what it means to be off the derech are so varied and complex that my general approach is “you know it when you see it”
