One point which I’m not sure has been clearly addressed. My apologies if it has.
CS keeps telling us how it is a chutzpah to think of arguing with the lubavitch rebbe as he was a huge talmid chochom, as was his father in law etc.
No, I am not comparing anyone to anyone, but Shabetai Tzvi was also a “huge talmid chochom”, and Oso Ho’ish was a talmid of Rebbi Yehoshua ben Perachiah. Furthemore, Yochanon Kohein Godol eneterd the Kodesh Hakodoshim for 80 years and then became a tzedoki. Note once again, I am not comparing anyone to anyone, just making a point.
Knowing how to learn does not save someone from being slightly or even very wrong.
And I’d alos just like to point out that Rav Shach zt”l was a “huge talmid chochom” yet lubavitch and their rebbe denigrate(d) him all the time. So why is the Shneerson family the only ones who are beyond even the slightest criticism?
