    Now you see what type of lying phony Yaakov Yosef A is. You ask him what he thinks of Rabbi Feldman’s statement and he says he doesn’t care because he doesn’t judge Jews. That’s total garbage. If he has no point of view why does he waste everyone’s time? Moreover he’s condescending and arrogant implying that he’s such a perfect Tzaddik that he see good in everyone. That’s BS. Judaism is a religion of truth. Manis Friedman is a Kofer and he’s spreading his lies to thousands of unsuspecting Jews. So yes he must be called out. And if Yaakov Yosef is too holy to speak critically let him stop giving Mussar to Jews who are following the Halacha of rebuking intentional sinners.

    Manis Friedman hss no intention of backing down from what he said. He is Chabad and Chabad believes that G-d d has been replaced by the Rebbe and therefore the world is totally Hefkee. Rabbi Efren Goldberg interviewed Manis Friedman recently. Another of his heresies is that Mitzvahs are optional. He explained that G-d has “needs” and when Jews keep Mitzvahs we’re fulfilling Hashem s needs. When Rabbi Goldberg challenged him he refused to back down arguing that since no one knows G-d how can anyone know if He has needs or not.

    I figured you’d show up. To state that a person who was raised fully frum and decided to walk away from the religion is a Tinok Shenishba is garbage. Dershowitz explained that he left the religion at 29 because he had two children and he didn’t want to burden them with Mitzvahs as it would prevent them from reaching their potential. Sorry that’s not a Tinok Shenishba. And as to what Rav Kook meant that’s not my concern, but it’s ridiculous, because it leads to where Friedman went that no Jew can be punished. To be fair, if Rav Kook meant what you’re saying then you have a right to follow him and I won’t say anything, but I have the right to follow rational Jews like Rabbi Feldman.

    Your position is acceptable. So is it fair to say that you would criticize the Friedeger Rebbe for saying that all Zionism is heresy? He was clearly implying that Zionists have have no Cheilek in Olam Habo.

    Thank you. Yaakov Yosef A is typical of many of the posters. They take a ridiculous position and then use word games to trick people into siding with them. He keeps telling me that I have to call Manis and ask him to clarify what he meant. He couldn’t be any clearer, “You can do anything you want and nothing will happen.” This is Chabadianity. I attend a Chabad shul during the week and the Rabbi told me that Gehinnom no longer exists.

    I thank you for clarifying the pertinent Gemara however there are three rebuttals to your statement. Number one, Rabbi Friedman said, “No Jew can be punished no matter what he does.” It’s not my job to figure out what he meant. If you don’t believe he said this look at the video. Second Rabbi Feldman clearly understood this as Kefirah. Third, and this is the most powerful response. Hillel taught us the Golden Rule, “Don’t do to others what you don’t want done to you.” This is universal and so you can’t attribute theft, or murder to the exile. No, Friedman isn’t looking for a Heter for himself rather he’s telling the irreligious that he deals with that there are no consequences of one sins. I know you won’t be moved by what I say because you are like most posters. You don’t care about the truth you just want to win the argument. But the facts are the facts. There is still punishment in this world and there will always be.

    You ask a good question so I’ll give a better answer. You ask, “We see that even though Nevuah is an Ikkar there were times that we didn’t have it, so too for Schar Veonesh.” The difference is that it’s the Gemara which says that Nevuah will be taken away. On the other hand, it’s some Rabbi who’s saying that Schar Veonesh no longer exists. Now I’ll repeat a question I asked you last week, “Since you foolishly believe that the Rebbe was a Novi give us an example of his Nevuah.”

    I reread what you wrote and it’s so despicable that I must comment. You’re suggesting that some Chabad Kofer in Minnesota is equal to Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai. You need serious help. And if you’re comparing the Rebbe to Rashbi you’re in similar need of psychiatric assistance.

    A blessing on your head. Too many of the posters seek to obfuscate the issues. You take the clearheaded approach and ask Sechel to clarify his remarks which, of course, he can’t because he has no Sechel. All Lubavitchers are trapped in a catch 22. They can’t honestly answer any rational question because such questions expose that their religion is a series of lies. On the other hand, they can’t admit that the.Rebbe was a Kofer because he’s the basis of their entire existence. So instead they play word games hoping the pursuers will get tired and move to a different subject.

    You seem like a nice person so I’ll respond to your last post. You asked for “my” definition of Zionism. As I said it’s exactly what you wrote at the start, a 19th century anti-Torah movement. Well I’m not secular nor anti-Torah and so I can’t be included among those Zionists whom you hate so much. My only crime is that I seek the welfare of the Jews living in Israel. According to you that makes me evil. According to the Torah you are a Rosha because wishing harm to any Jew violates Veahavta Reiacha Kimoso.

    According to your “logic” the Sages of the Gemara were Kofrim when they said that there won’t be Nevuah until Moshiach arrives. Second point. Let’s say we accept your thesis that Manis Friedman meant that Hashem only gives the mildest punishments today, how would he know that? Are you saying that he’s also a Novi?

    Apparently u saw the video, since u know what he said. I’ll repeat it, “Because of the long exile no Jew can be punished no matter what he does.” So you say he was exaggerating. Maybe the Friedeger was exaggerating when he said that religious Zionism is Kefirah. Maybe Rabbi Cumin was exaggerating when he said the Rebbe runs the world. I understand that you want to defend these people because you’re Chabad but I have to assume that they mean what they say especially because I have heard other Lubavitchers say similar things.

    I don’t have to ask him if he’s a Kofer. There’s a video in which he states that because of the long exile no Jew can be punished no matter what he does. You can see the video by going to a site called Musings of a Litvish Yid. The video will immediately come up. Those on YWN know that I don’t make unsubstantiated claims. So it’s no my opinion that he’s a Kofer. Menachem Shmei knows it very well and that’s why he’s ducking my questions. The Mitzvah to be Dan Likaf Zchus only applies when there’s a Sofek.

    I thank you for your rapid response to my question. That’s menschlich something that Shmei and certain others know nothing about. This said your answer was disingenuous. I’ll accept the first part but not the second and I’ll explain. Let’s examine the first part. Yes Zionism was a secular anti-Torah movement. Well, it logically follows that those who are not secular nor anti-Torah are not Zionists. This excludes all the people you are railing against including yours truly. You then throw in that Zionism today means anyone who wants the State of Israel to exist. That’s not a definition. It’s your biased opinion. I’ll offer a Moshol. Rabbi Miller said that anyone with a TV in his house has no Cheilek in Olam Habo. He then “proves” it. The Mishna in Cheilek says that those who study Seforim Chitzonim have no Cheilek in Olam Habo and Rabbi Miller defines Seforim Chitzonim as TV. So he gave a definition to fit his opinion. That’s called self serving Torah and it’s garbage and that’s exactly what you’re presenting. According to the second half of your definition one must wish for the destruction of the State of Israel
    So it follows that you Daven that the Iranian bombs kill as many “sonei Yisrael” as possible. Am I right?

    I respect your point of view. In fact I was in Shul this past Shabbos and the Rabbi pleaded with us not to speak any Loshon Hora and so I understand the gravity of the subject. This said Rabbi Friedman’s Kefirah can’t be ignored. There is only so far that you can play the Tinok Shenishba card. Several months ago I had an argument on VIN with this liar who tried to convince me that Alan Dershowitz was a Tinok Shenishba despite the fact that he knowingly walked away from Judaism at 29. Hashem s seal is Emes. When Rabbi Friedman stated that one can eat a pork sandwich on Yom Kippur and nothing will happen to him that’s beyond the pale. And don’t play the Litvish game. I’m a Chossid on both sides although now my Hashkahfa is closer to Litvish. Be modeh on the Emes. Let’s discuss this further. If you make valid points I’ll acknowledge them.

    You should know by now that Menachem Shmei only answers questions that suit him. I would suggest that we discuss with our points between ourselves. As an example I brought up Rabbi Manis Friedman’s Kefirah. To be sure, Menachem wouldn’t comment. Friedman stated that no Jew can be punished because of the bitter exile. I have no idea what that means, but I think he’s covering up for his Rebbe who said he’ll save every Jew. Would you care to comment?

    True to form Menachem Shmei has not answered my question. I’ll repeat it. He correctly stated that the Rebbe was stridently anti-Zionist. The question is, “So what?” According to Rabbi Manis Friedman who presumably follows the Rebbe’s shitah no Jew can be punished. So even if the Rebbe held that Zionism is Kefirah there would be no consequences. It’s like the Torah saying that if one dies x, y, or z he gets Kareis.

    There’s an obvious question that emerges from your latest post. We know from the Friedeger Rebbe’s letter that he held that all Zionists are Kofrim. And we know that a Kofer has no Cheilek in Olam Habo. You then state that the Rebbe was even more ardently anti-Zionist than his predecessor. This would imply that he also held that all Zionists are Kofrim. However Rabbi Manis Friedman said that no Jew, even the worst sinner imaginable, can be punished.

    I agree with you that the Chabad stance is still anti-Zionist. Years ago I organized a charity event for victims of Israeli terrorism. The Rabbi of the shul is Chabad, but the shul itself was, at the time, MO. I wanted to begin the program by having a Chazan sing Hatikvah. The Rabbi went ballistic that Zionism is Kefirah so I took it out.

    I’d like to elaborate on your statement that Halachic and Haggadic heresy are totally distinct entities. A Jew who knowingly eats a ham and cheese sandwich on Yom Kippur and/or Pesach is a Kofer according to Halacha. On the other hand, many Rabbis play the ,”heresy” card to fit their agenda. Rabbi Miller immediately comes to mind, but obviously the Friedeger Rebbe also used that tactic. Now, to be Dan these great people Likaf Zchus we can say that they used hyperbole because of what they perceived was a Shas Hadchak The Chametz Chaim famously cited the verse, “Ain Bayis Asher Ain Shom Mes” in recognition of Jews who were going lost to the various”isms” of the times and so we can perhaps justify the Friedeger calling Zionism heresy so that European Jewry would distance itself from it. This said, no rational person in the present day can use that term for those who seek the well-being of the Jews in Israel as well as the country.

    There are two answers to your statement. First, contemporary Rabbis are not Tannaim and Amoraim. Second, the Talmud says that the sun revolves around the earth. Do you believe that?

    Now you get a glimpse into Shmei’s duplicity. He claims not to have read the book yet he accuses me of distorting what the author wrote. He said that Abraham’s first nine tests weren’t tests.Rashi and Rambam and others have lists of the ten tests, but Posner disagrees with them. He holds that Avrohom was just being a nice guy. As for Posner ‘s statement that only Chabad cares about other Jews. Sorry he was not just praising Chabad he was putting down all other Frum Jews. One of the Chabad Rebbes said that one doesn’t elevate himself by putting others down. But Chabad even insults the Avos. They have no “Sheim”. Pun intended.

In no way does Hashem’s statement detract from the previous tests. Posner was a jerk. And as for the Rebbe’s proof that all Jews will be redeemed. I was taught his Sicha. The Haggadah says we tell the Rosho that had you been there you wouldn’t have been redeemed. But at the final redemption, you will be redeemed. Total Am Aratzus. I guess ARSo is correct.

    Some may be wondering how I can insult Rabbi Posner given the principle, “mir rett Nish oif em todt.” I’ll explain. Zalman Posner was a prolific Chabad writer . One of his books is called “Why Be Jewish?” It’s a very well written series of essays. In one such piece he discusses the Akeidah and states that it was the only test that Abraham passed because the other nine were just examples of Abraham being a nice guy. This is paf for the Chabad course. You will recall the Chabad fellow who said that the Rebbe was much greater than Moshe Rabbeinu. We have another principle called Al Pi Shnayim. So let me share another except from the book. This chapter is called “,Why Be Chabad?” Posner begins as follows, “There are 2 types of Orthodox Jews. The first are careful with Kashrus, Shabbos etc however they have no interest in any Jew outside of their immediate circle. We call such Jews insulated. In contrast we have Chabad who are the only Jews who understand and practice the concept of Kol Yisrael Areivim Zeh Lozeh.” Consider that. A respected Chabad Rabbi spewing calumnies against all non Chabad religious Jews. And even denigrating our Avos. Such were the teachings of the Rebbe. To convince his followers that they were the Master Race of Judaism. Now Shmei can try to lie his way out of this one, but we’re still waiting for him to answer the question that checkmated Chabad over a month ago.

    I think you’ll find this interesting. There’s a Lubavicher named Yossi Farro who has made a name for himself by putting Tefilin on rich and famous Mechallels. He recently announced his newest target, Larry David of Seinfeld and Curb fame. When David heard about this he said he’d never do it but now there seems to be a possibility that if they meet his price he’ll consider it. This story is on VIN now. As you would imagine people expressed their opinion of that ausvorf until a Chabadsker shows up to declare that Mr. David is a holy yid and no one can criticize him because every Mechallel today is a Tinok Shenishba. I asked that fellow the following, “Is Alan Dershowitz a Tinok Shenishba?” I explained that he was recently.interviewed by Zev Brenner and said that when he was 29 and his 2 kids were born he decided to completely divorce himself from the religion. The guy said that according to the Steipler even Dershowitz is a Tinok Shenishba. The point is that Schneersohn announced that no sinner can ever be punished and so they make up any and everything to cover his Kefirah. Shicklegruber wanted to eliminate Jews. His Talmid Schneersohn wanted to eliminate Judaism.

    Many things are taught in Cheder and Yeshiva which we learn aren’t “true” as we get older and more intellectually sophisticated. It’s generally accepted that the six days of Creation isn’t literal. Other than followers of the Rebbe and Rabbi Miller this concept has fallen out of favor. And I’ve spoken to very big people who have confirmed that it’s not a viable position.So why do they teach six days in Cheder? It’s because children haven’t developed the scientific background to appreciate such nuances. So we teach them the “simple” Pshat and let them understand the truth as they develop. Unfortunately some people never develop and so they still think in their later years that Yaakov Lo Meis is meant to be taken literally

    There was a black and white movie called Dangerous Crossing which was set on an ocean liner. A plot was hatched to drive one oman crazy so that she’d jump overboard and kill herself and her husband would inherit her money. She was filthy rich and the husband was in on the plot. I thought of this because the Three Stooges are trying to play with your head and convince you that you’re stupid or worse. Last year, not long after I joined, a large contingent tried to intimidate me so that I’ll leave. Yankel berel showed up and backed me up and the lynch mob removed the noise from my neck. We see how rotten ostensibly Orthodox Jews can be. Rabbi Yisrael Salanter started the Mussar Movement because he saw that people could be careful with Kashrus, Shabbos etc put have disgusting Middos. The sick thing with these sub viruses is that they’re proud of their Rishus. There’s a special place in Gehinnom waiting for them.
