ZDad,

Would you mind showing a source for that?

Somehow I never heard it.

And Yes you are 100% percent if one is Mechallel Shabbos then one is oiver on Chillul Shabbos.

In acuality to say that persons Chesed does not “count” is wrong.

Each and every Mitzva that someone does “counts”.

And they recieve reward for it.

Just as each and every aviera “counts”. And one is punished for it.

As for Chillul Hashem.

You seem to misunderstand, so i’ll explain it.

No one is justifying the actions this man is accussed of what so ever.

Period.

That means No One.

However what his community is saying.

Including many women who were counseled by him and did allow thier names to be used is that he is innocent.

Let me repeat it nice and slow.

They are saying he is innocent.

Now since the numerous secular sources brought their entire investigative resources to bear.

An entire trial was conducted.

And not one shred of evidence was produced other then this girls word against his.

Combined with the fact that as far as I am aware her Boyfriend at the time is willing to testify that she said she would make the story up, a fact no one is disputing, (though for some weird reason he was not allowed to testify.

I find zero reason to believe that this Man is guilty.

And no two people saying all of a sudden that they were approached by others who are unwilling to come forth and state thier accustations does not constitute “proof”.
