One last time:
Again (and again), yes, I know about the Villna Goan, Chofetz Chaim. These are most severe sins. However, as I pointed out earlier, there are many, many seforim that talk about different aspects that have to be mended. Formost, as I mentioned, is limud haTorah, as the Ohr Hachaim clearly writes.
Had the geulah been contingent on Shmiras haDibur alone, the Mashiach would long have been here, as I mentioned the so many Shmiras haDibur groups. The only ones I find talking bad are those that say we talk bad.
I completely lost you drift in this last one:
“1. Ayn Torah b’goyim. Yesh chochma b’goyim – Positive speech brings prosperity?”
-Who?, what? (is that a new ma’amar chazal??)
“2. The face of the generation of Moshiach will be like dogs–Our Sages compare speakers of lashon hora to dogs.”
-is this some new “pshat” you’re attributing to the holy words of Chazal? (actually no one compares speakers of lashon hora to dogs, it says it it fit to throw him to the dogs – ???? ??????? ??????.
“3. On a regular year, Tzaria and Metzora are read together–are they connected to choosing life?”
-again Who?, what? (and where).
As I wrote before, those are very severe sins, ???? ??? ?????? ???? ????? ????. However they don’t constitute the whole Torah or YiddishKite.
The one previously about having our Yomim Tovim something to do with sinas chinam – I didn’t want to respond. But I guess if you’re still sticking to this, I might as well…

“…I want to reiterate that every part of our Torah is holy and meant to make us holy, but that according to many of our Torah sources and our holidays is the concept of the removal of sinas chinam. During Pesach, we ask that we be rid of our enemies. (WHAT?!?) During Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur we ask that we be forgiven by our enemies.(Repeat – WHAT?!? We ask forgiviness from HaShem, incidentally, Yom Kippur does not forgive if one has not made up with one he/she wronged.) When we sleep at night, we say we will forgive everyone who has hurt us. (good idea) Sodom and Gomorrah (amorah, gemorah is what we learn) was destroyed because of cruelty. (and many other sins, true, the leading one was bain adam lchaveiro) In the morning, we pray not to be hurt by anyone. (We do?!? – and therefore??) In Psalms, we read about enemies and ask Hashem to protect us. (I’d like to be protected from my enemies too, wouldn’t you?) On Yom Kippur we read the story of Jonah, where he had to remind the people of Ninveh to be kind to one another. In Shavuot, we read about an exemplary relationship between Ruth and her mother-in-law. (we read from the Torah about many more things irrelevant to relationships, why Rus is read is for many reasons) During the Omer, we learn about Rabbi Akiva’s students who didn’t respect one another. (yes, we do, that’s a season to perfect ourselves in these aspects) During the Av, we learn about the destruction of the Second Temple due to sinas chinam. (and in the case of the first bais hamikdash, other grave sins, learning Torah) Purim, when camaraderie is at its best, is an example of the future redemption. (again, WHAT?!?) Am I missing something or are most of the holidays related to teaching us how to behave bein adam Lchavero? (I can’t comment if you’re missing anything. Yomim Tovim, moadei HaShem, is something between a person and his creator. Period. No matter how you want to distort, contort. Of course there’s a general mitzvah that a person should think of another less fortunate, especially during Holidays, and make them likewise joyful – it’s NOT THE ESSENCE of the moed) I think that when the Torah talks about enemies, we see that as other nations, when in fact they can be people in our lives or personal enemies..(completely lost you here)
