It's much easier to go to one mode and sit there - all love or all hate. But we HAVE TO FIND THE BALANCE and that is much, much harder. It takes constant attention and adjustment to the changing circumstances, like a tightrope walker balancing with a pole.<br /><br />We are commanded to love our brothers and hate our enemies. And to do that we have to know who is who. If we take the time and trouble to learn, the Torah teaches us. But, enough with the extremism already! <br /><br />And no, I won't post comments which contradict what I'm sharing because if I didn't believe what I was saying is the truth, I wouldn't be going to all this trouble to put it out there for people. Why then go and undo what I've done with the result that people come away even more confused by the mixing of truth and lie just to stroke people's egos? <br /><br />There is no such thing as a free marketplace of ideas according to Torah law. There is no merit, as the Xians keep preaching to us, in putting all the information (wrong and right) out there and letting people decide for themselves what they want to believe. <br /><br />I'm truly sorry if people get hurt feelings. Every day, I question the value of even allowing comments. If anyone has a question about why their comment was not published, he or she is most welcome to email me (tdnjslm@gmail.com) for an explanation. I assure you it is not at all arbitrary.<br /><br />Sometimes I hold a comment for a bit to think it over before I decide. When it's borderline, I go ahead and publish. But, I want to assure all the readers that I take this responsibility very seriously. And I beg your patience and indulgence and yes, forgiveness, where any of you feel he was wronged by any decision I made here with regard to comment publication.<br /><br />Shabbat shalom!Devorah Chayahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03625277197970920616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2492192659601155685.post-55417959920377962102016-09-23T03:17:44.943+03:002016-09-23T03:17:44.943+03:00Every time I try to point out the difference betwe...Every time I try to point out the difference between right and wrong, the liberal left and atheist "jews" point out how I'm so judgmental and how we need to unite and have ahavas chinam and all that to build the Beis Hamikdash!

Even the Vishnitz Chasidim has a community there, so we are not allowed to say what jack intimated. H' knows who the bad guys are everywhere and since TA/Haifa, etc. are all part of today's medina which is a golus in itself, HE knows who is who, just like in the diaspora. We must be careful not to indict the good living within the bad places because that would be the whole wide world. nili<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2492192659601155685.post-83310974488748489352016-09-22T21:34:52.100+03:002016-09-22T21:34:52.100+03:00I see both points of view.

This is not baseless hatred. At the same time, Tel Aviv, despite its mayor's expressed desire to be the "Homosexual Capital of the World", most certainly has more then ten righteous people living in it, so it's not quite Sodom and Gomorrah.<br /><br />However, if I had my way about it, I'd move all the righteous people to safety (as I did in my book) and go with Jack and say, "Clean house, Hashem!"Devorah Chayahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03625277197970920616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2492192659601155685.post-85219092960575236912016-09-22T21:29:25.927+03:002016-09-22T21:29:25.927+03:00Jack it is not helpful to judge your fellow yid.
