    “I attend a Chabad shul during the week and the Rabbi told me that Gehinnom no longer exists.“

    Maybe someone told him when he was a kid “the rebbe will be moshiach when gehennom freezes over

    Therefore it no longer exists 😂

    “Only third place? The Reform did double as well as the fake-religious so-called “Eretz Hakodesh”. Baruch Hashem the EHK fakers did so poorly”

    Aaq,

    You (deliberately?) didn’t address to the dig to YU and Chabad that they do it too

    Yet you’re just bashing agudah because it’s best not to look at “your camp”

    Aaq,

    Not sure why you called me common, maybe it was an autocorrect like Lakewood era (should have been Lakewooders)

    And majority opinion doesn’t work here because he’s last and אחרון אחרון חביב

    But seriously, kollel avreichim probably wouldn’t be there because daf yomi is only for baalei batim

    But you get the gist of it

    In other words what haimy said

    I asked my WhatsApp AI and this is what it told me (probably from Wikipedia)

    Yeshiva Gedolah Zichron Moshe, also known as Yeshiva of South Fallsburg, is a private Orthodox rabbinical college located in South Fallsburg, New York. Established in 1944 by Rabbi Yerucham Gorelick, it’s considered one of the leading beit midrash programs in the United States, with a steady enrollment of around 200 students.

    *Key Facts:*

    – *Enrollment*: Approximately 200 students, all male
    – *Focus*: Talmudic studies and Orthodox rabbinical education
    – *Degrees*: Bachelor’s degree and first professional certification
    – *Accreditation*: Association of Advanced Rabbinical and Talmudic Schools
    – *Rosh Yeshiva*: Rabbi Elya Ber Wachtfogel

    *Community and Campus:*

    The yeshiva has a strong presence in the community, with many families affiliated with the kollel or working in the schools or administrative offices. The campus includes facilities for both the yeshiva and the affiliated Bnos Devorah Raizel Elementary School for girls.

    *Challenges and Support:*

    In 2023, the Bnos Devorah Raizel school faced a significant setback when a fire destroyed its new building. However, the community rallied together, and a donor pledged to match donations up to $250,000 to support the rebuilding efforts ¹ ².

    Hope that helps

    I can see it now,

    Rabbi Shachter will get up there and talk about how יפה תלמוד תורה עם דרך ארץ and the best learners are the ones that go to work and learn from an artscroll and the Lakewood era would close their ears, then the Chabad Rav will give a speech how the rebbe loves it that everyone is learning Gemara but the real learning comes from chassidus and everyone should go out and get a Tanya and then the Lakewood RY will get up and מלמד אני כל אומניות שבעולם ואיני מלמד בני אלא תורה, and quote something from Rav Shach

    That will show achdus!

    “Regarding “coming back”, only in Israel does the government poison their citizens to hate Judaism, while elsewhere the non-observant Jews are largely simply ignorant and certainly do come back when exposed to the beauty of Torah.“

    Your premise that this is their goal might be true however this statement for sure isnt true

    Just look at the Israelis that do come back even those with Zionistic lineage

    “Given that Zionism is the greatest rebellion against G-d by far, and is therefore far more anti-Jewish than anything out there“

    “However, Satmar helps everyone, not just Satmar. If anyone G-d forbid has needed to be in a major hospital and has seen the Satmar Bikkur Cholim room, where you have Satmar women – with ten (or more) of their own children – who go and cook and prepare – and then deliver to those hospitals – food for those in need there, no matter the background of the recipients, then they know that your hateful statement is false.“

    Hakatan,

    Therein lies your mistake, if Netanyahu, Smotrich, or even Lapid needed services from Satmar Bikur Cholim they would give them with happiness whereas regarding a mumar we are told we don’t save him rather we try to drown them

    It’s the opposite

    Lubavitchers (and chassidim) sit in the sukkah on shmini atzeres and they don’t sleep in the sukkah so you’re doing like them

    “Ah, so you don’t know. You mock Chabad for a widespread chassidish minhag of talmidei habaal shem tov and onward, explained by giants such as the Minchas Elazar and others.
    And when confronted, you admit that you know nothing about this minhag. All you know is: mock first, question after.“

    You’re (deliberately?) misunderstanding me

    Just because they did for whatever reason doesn’t mean it should be done for ALL reasons

    “So because of a Gemara you learned in cheder, you’re ready to mock the minhag of many great tzaddikim and poskim going back to the Baal Shem Tov.“

    The onus is on them to explain the Gemara, not the other way around

    And to those that say it was written regarding ארץ ישראל only, the Gemara (which was written in בבל) doesn’t say that and additionally I wouldn’t be surprised if Lubavitchers in ארץ ישראל still sit in the rain

    Additionally I don’t know the circumstances of those Rebbes who sat in the rain, maybe it was first day of yon tov where one still has to make kiddush so once that’s done they said now that the mitzvah is over I want to sit in the sukkah for a different reason that isn’t because of the mitzvah

    “YOU “don’t think”, YOU “think that this is a shtus” – who do you think you are? What kind of arrogance is this?

    Did you read the teshuvos of all the great tzaddikim who praised and encouraged this chumra that you call a shtus?

    Did you see how the Minchas Elazar wrote about the minhag of generation after generation of tzaddikim from talmidei haBaal Shem Tov who stay in the Sukkah even in the rain!?

    Why are you so quick to attack fellow Jews and mock their behavior because you have a general resentment to their group?“

    The Gemara calls someone that sits in the sukkah in the rain a חסיד שוטה like a servant that gets splashed in the face by his master and is told I don’t want your servitude

    “I wouldn’t categorize Chabad as lenient regarding Sukkah.“

    I wouldn’t either, doesnt the Gemara talk about that with a master throwing a cup of water at his servants face? Now I know that there are some opinions that say that’s only in ארץ ישראל but according to others I don’t think that’s considered being מחמיר I think that that is a shtus

    From Ywn WhatsApp chat

    🚨 *NEW:* HaGaon HaRav Kalman Epstein, Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshiva Shaar HaTorah-Grodno, has announced his endorsement of Eretz HaKodesh in the upcoming WZO elections.

    For those unfamiliar, Rav Kalman founded Yeshiva Shaar HaTorah in Kew Gardens Hills, Queens, in 1974. His father, HaGaon HaRav Zelik Epstein ZT”L, served as Rosh Yeshiva until his petira in 2009. Over the past 50 years, Shaar HaTorah has produced thousands of Choshuva Bnei Torah, many of whom are now mechanchim worldwide.

    Just last week, Rav Kalman was featured on the cover of Mishpacha Magazine, where he addressed the urgent issue of the shidduch crisis.

    “That was the Mitteler Rebbe”

    Nu, wasn’t the first probably won’t be the last

    “Go attack the non-Chabad chassidim who paskened that one doesn’t need to eat in the Sukkah on Shemini Atzeres anymore.“

    No one ever ate in the sukkah on shmini atzeres, the reason chassidim (which I am noheg) (it’s not limited to Chabad chassidim) do it is because of ספיקא דיומא whereas litvaks don’t consider it.

    “Was the problem that they misunderstood their rebbe’s statement or that they obeyed their rebbe?

    Were they meant to say “Our rebbe is not infallible, he must have been wrong in saying אל תהיו כעבדים” – as you seem to be implying in this discussion about Chabad?”

    Their fault was that they didn’t ask what their rebbe meant, they thought since their rebbe is never wrong and this is what our rebbe meant to say it must be that this is what he said

    “So you agree with me that there is such a thing as accepting a “daas torah” and obeying them unquestionably even when you don’t understand. “

    Menachem does have a point, just ask tzadok and beisus, their rebbe said “אל תהיו כעבדים…” and they obeyed their rebbe without asking any questions
