Logician, yes, it is possible if I think one way, even though I may know there are other ways of thinking, I obviously choose to the think the way I do because I feel that the other ways of thinking are wrong. But even with that, I can still understand that there are other ways of thinking. I see your distinction. Thanks for clarifying.
Toi, wonderful. So we have a disagreement in how to serve G-d, and that is something I think we both knew going in. If I truly am someone who’s values are not that of Torah, and that my beliefs terribly impact the Jewish nation, then I am saddened that being a kind-hearted, sensitive, thoughtful, caring, moral, and positive person are things that G-d doesn’t want, and are things considered “products of a corrupt American society”. Quite honestly, I’d rather die than give up those values. I’d rather die than be judgmental, rude, arrogant, and closed-minded. So far, in my time in the CR, I’ve helped many people find confidence, given an endless amount of support and care to a few who needed it, and possibly saved one from ending her life. And if you think all that makes me a person who is “terribly impacting the Jewish nation”, then you really need to sit down and rethink your own values. I am not saying this to insult you. I really think you should think this and ask yourself “What does G-d really want from me?”
Again, wishing you both a wonderful chag.
