yitzchokm: Yeah, well your rebuttal still isn’t logical. His is, even if it is intrinsically flawed (which I don’t think is true.)
I know it was being ridiculed, and I don’t stand by that. However, I do stand by the point that Wolf was trying to make. I don’t think one way of life is intrinsically more kadosh because people can achieve kedusha through different ways. And to my mind, holding that such a lifestyle is the standard and that it is inherently better should go hand in hand. Because thinking it is inherently better but NOT a universally applicable standard is just stupidly bigoted. Yeah, you can’t exactly play both sides.
To everyone bashing Gerrer chassidim: If husband and wife both agree to and want this lifestyle, then why do you even care? It’s their own personal life and you don’t have any right to interfere.
