Reply To: gimme a break- cholov yisroel??

i think they are looking to get closer to Hashem… not “torture themselves”. Also, i think it is important to remember that a person must work on both- bien adam lemakom and bein adam lechaveiro— one without the other is not a full workout so to speak. However, what a person works on should not be yours or anyone’s business- it is their personal avodah in which they are working to get closer to Hashem, if they feel that the way for them to do it is through this medium then kol hakavod- they are being mekadesh shem shamayim ! good!
