@coffee addict. anyone who learned chafatz chaim knows this claim in non sense.
@coffeeroomguy: seems like you hang around chabad a lot. thats called motzi shem ra!
@arso. its so important to keep people way from chabad, where is the MESORA for that? 2) which gadol wrote anything against chabad in the past 10 yrs? if you bring me people from 30 yrs ago, well seems like today they realized the claims were false, cuz if not, and chabad is keeping to grow, where are the gedolim today that care about yiddishkiet? they should be speaking about how bad chabad is to keep people away. and dont bring me a claim that some gadol SAID something to a private person, 1) its asur to be mikabel such a thing 2) if he would care, he would be more public about it.
The global population of Chabad has been estimated to be 90,000–95,000 adherents, accounting for 13% of the global Hasidic population. However, up to one million Jews are estimated to attend Chabad services at least once a year. (wikipedia)
and if you really only mean litoeles, you will have much more influence if you go to the gedolim and encourage them to sign a kol koreh to the jews to stay away from chabad, cuz it seems its forgotten about, (besides for a few board soles on tyw)
disclaimer: why chabad tries to impluence others to learn chassidus is not because we think we are better, its because we know we have something very precious and because of our love for other jews we want to share it. just like if you would hear of a good credit card offer, you would tell your friends. anyone who has been around knows this, whoever has other misconceptions about chabad and who thinks were a cult, obviously just knows chabad from misnagdishe motzi shem ra. in the time of the magid and the baal hatanya they also called chassidim the “kat” – cult for this reason!
