It’s an interesting discussion and interesting to note how everyone is bringing true points, with a positive or negative slant depending on their own affiliation.
Anonano does an amazing job of acceptance, tolerance and ahavas yisroel and more like him (her?) in kllal yisroel would lead to a lot less divisiveness…
two points I’d like to add to the table:
a. every person should feel strongly their derech is right, otherwise, why are they on it? respect others for their different ways of serving Hashem and then focus on your own unique derech in achieving perfection as a person and bringing light to the world.
b. I think someone mentioned but if you think about it you’ll realize there is more that unites us than divides us. I always marvel at a chupah – and I’ve been to many – how while the customs differ the words we say remain the same. It’s an incredible experience to attend a wedding between two very chassidish people and one between two completely secular ones in one night and hear the same exact brachos recited under each. Just something to consider.
