the previous thread on this seems to have been taken down
kozov: you quoted the chasam sofer that you are responsible for goyim keeping the 7 mitzvos benei noach. afilu im timzei lomar this is correct (does not seem to have a din arvus), see shulchan aruch choshen mishpat 12:1 in the rema:
???? ? ???? ???? ????? ????, ??? ?? ???? ???, ?? ??? ???? ??????, ?? ?????? ?????? ??? ??? ???? ????? ???? ????, ??? ???? ???? ??? ???? ???? ???, ??? ?????? ???? ????? ???? ??? ?????. ??? ?????? ?????? ???? ????? ???? ????, ?? ??? ???? ???? ???? ???? ???… ??? …??? ?? ???? ???? ???? ?????? ????? ??? ????? ?????? ?????, ???? ??? ???? ????.
In other words even when you are dealing with enforcing the halachah amongst jews we do not do that if that would lead to sakanah – kal ve’chomer if you are going to make machaos against what the goyim want to do and you could cause them to be koreh tagar on klal yisroel
seems the rabbonim disagree with your interpretation.
Rav Schechter once said “the minhag is not like the Rema” and quoted a rishon (I forget who) who said had a very broad interpretation of lo saguru mipnei ish.
