None of the choices given reflect my view so I will give it here:Based on reading this blog alone I would add baaley machlokes,baaley motzey shem ro and other faults to Chabad.(I don't read this blog regularly I occasionally glance at the headlines to see if there is anything of interest and not Motzey shem ro)
I like the question as you focus on Lubavitch and not the Rebbe. The answer for me is Yes, but since my 6th grade R didn't cover the subject I'm not voting.
I voted #2, but it has a lot more nuance than that. On the plus side I learned there may be hope for Chabad especailly on a personal level and overall I respect your opinion on a lot of matters (tzig I mean) so that is a Chiddush. Regarding general Chabad mostly it is the same and there are some things that are worse
For the record I have no issue with you editing my comment. Frankly I am surprised that you can still be called a Chosid with some of the comments you let through.
Saying I believe what I was taught is incorrect because I was never formally taught anything about Lubavitch.I did read Al H'Torah V'al H'Temurah but it only confirmed what I already knew and came across about Chabad
This is my final comment.If you feel Al H'Torah V'al H'Temurah is inaccurate please explain why.This is an issue I would LOVE to be wrong about.Tragically my independent reading of Lubavitcher publications and my experiences with Lubavitchers both in and out of 770 (both before and after reading AHVH)have definitely confirmed most of what is written there.

ReplyDeletethat sort of fits into number 2, where you believe everything you were taught about Chabad.
