    @Menachem Shmei,

    I’m really enjoying watching QWERTY repeatedly ignore your question he can’t apparently answer, only to go around patting himself on the back for being absolutely correct.

    Let’s see if he answers it now.

    The knowledge argument (also known as Mary’s Room or Mary the super-scientist) is a philosophical thought experiment proposed by Frank Jackson in his article “Epiphenomenal Qualia” (1982) and extended in “What Mary Didn’t Know” (1986).

    The experiment describes Mary, a scientist who exists in a black-and-white world where she has extensive access to physical descriptions of color, but no actual perceptual experience of color. Mary has learned everything there is to learn about color, but she has never actually experienced it for herself. The central question of the thought experiment is whether Mary will gain new knowledge when she goes outside the colorless world and experiences seeing in color.

    This experiment is literally describing what it’s like showing some one chasssidus. It’s not meant to be known, it’s meant to be experienced. Any conversation going forth needs to keep this in mind.

    QWERTY I’m saying this coming up on the yomim tovim, you can laugh at me all you want, but if you are really davening at a Lubavitch Shul there is something calling you to do so. I say logging off ywn, focusing on your nobel practice and trying to understand why you daven there is more pertinent than trolling.

    I don’t know much about satmar,

    This is not a troll I’m serious:

    I heard that satmar believes the role of the Baal Shemtov has been fulfilled and they do not believe in the meilah of teaching chassidus. Can anybody who is knowledgeable on this confirm this is true?

    QWERTY was mated a long time ago. At this point he’s either a troll or is not capable of truly understanding the meilah of chassidus in todays world. What’s outstandingly funny to me is he davens in a ChaBaD Shul which makes him complicit in the AZ he so accuses ChaBaD of committing.

    I’m not even going to give you recommendations to read because you apparently have your mind made up. If you are truly a doctor remember it’s not good to embodify only netzach, hod is required. You may be bright but I’m afraid you are doing too well in life for yourself.

    So HaRav Moshe Feinstein accepted Rebbeinu Tam Tefillin that which were written by ChaBaD softer under the strict supervision of the Rebbe as requested.

    QWERTY you sure come off like the kinda guy that isn’t tied down to any particular derech. Contrarians like that are a dime a dozen, sitting in the back of Shul always whining about what others are doing without committing to anything meaningful.

    Has everyone aired their grievances with ChaBaD enough to move on, or these the dead horse need an another beating?

    I’m sorry for anyone here that didn’t get their fair share of juice in a lubavitch day camp, it’s time to get over it.

    “So Lubavitchers believe their rebbe is moshiach and can come from the dead, so what? It isn’t an aveirah (maybe a shtus) and they won’t listen to you and you won’t listen to them”

    Thank you for making it so clear. I don’t get why people have to be so harsh when these ideas aren’t something that would warrant cherem. At worst believing the Rebbe is a shtus and nothing more, case closed.

    Why not get all the whining out and cover all the multitude of complaints against ChaBaD minhagim.

    Let’s make a list:

    All Lubavitchers are meshicists
    ChaBaD shecitah is problematic
    Why do the boys wear Rabbeinu Tam Tefillin?
    ChaBaD safrus is bedieved at best
    Why is there a disregard for zemanim
    Sheitels aren’t tznius
    Why hold by no gebracts during Pesach
    ChaBaD mesivtahs aren’t up to par in lamdus
    ChaBaD smicha doesn’t mean anything

    It’s has all been said, and honestly you all sound like a broken record. If bashing ChaBaD makes you feel better about yourself, I feel sorry for you. I would never disrespect Rav Soloveitchik the way the Rebbe was disparaged on this forum shame on you.

    The cathedral is done with Biden, it’s time to tarnish his name throw him under the bus and begin supporting another useful stooge.

    It’s almost an act of kindness at this point to put the old stool pigeon out to pasture. I hope for an even harder core leftist with vigilance takes his place so we can be forced to draw even harder lines in this country. Assimilation is getting worse by the second.

    It’s also funny to note the rich boys aren’t ever written off as “ADHD” losses in the yeshivos butbyet the poor boys are all the time.

    I’ve seen boys kicked out for minor infractions that come from humble economic backgrounds, while rich boys that act like complete brats are sheltered and tutored personally by the entire staff.
