Therefore, more often than not, the way a person must serve G-d will lead to rejection by many who say they serve G-d.madaralhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12464817724312275528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-23589146965415199342008-07-11T19:52:00.000+03:002008-07-11T19:52:00.000+03:00I just added Rav Chaim Shmuelevitz for clarificati...<I>I just added Rav Chaim Shmuelevitz for clarification.

My understanding of all these ciations is that it is the individual's responsibility/obligation to find out his own unique approach. The fact that others disagree and insist otherwise - does not free him of his obligation. It would seem that institutionalized Judaism can never be truly sensitive to the individual. The problem today is primarily that parents and individuals have abrogated their responsibility and have allowed the system to tell them what to do and have thus failed in their own personal religious obligation.<BR/><BR/>In sum - stop blaming others/rabbis for that which is not their responsibility. It is time for people to stop whining "he made me do it"Daas Torahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07252904288544083215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-37927537889481840682008-07-11T17:17:00.000+03:002008-07-11T17:17:00.000+03:00Anonymous said... http://yediah.blogspot.com/20...Anonymous said...<BR/><BR/> http://yediah.blogspot.com/2008/07/religious-and-observant-unifiers-of.html#links<BR/><BR/> A similar idea.<BR/><BR/>================<BR/>I disagree.
