Philosopher, you and your community are free to operate according to the “closed model” in an effort to protect your spiritual well-being. But don’t kid yourself that you are serving as a light unto the nations. Not by erring on the side of NOT inviting lonely guests to your home. Not by a community custom of not inviting widowed or divorced or single guests. And especially not by “protest[ing] against the liberals who are eroding morality, … and [by] be[ing] a voice against immorality” (In effect, by yelling at/criticizing supposed apikorsim from your holy tower). Nor by voting for low-lifes like Trump in the name of “family values”. (If you wouldn’t want him crossing the threshold into your home, maybe you shouldn’t vote for him?) A person might change for the better by interacting with erliche people. But no one ever changed in response to being protested against by a tzaddik in peltz.
