Quote Of The Day
The secular also, who do not keep Torah and mitzvos, if they give up their lives for saving other people out of social love, they have olam haba just like the dead of Lod that gave up their lives for the sake of the people of their city....
The Mashgiach Rav Yechezkel Levenstein and the Chazon Ish said it is prohibited to hate [the secular]. There is no reason to hate them, one should hate the sins and should have compassion for them. The Ohr yechezkel and the Chazon Ish said explicitly that they are tinok she'nishbu and it is prohibited to hate them. We are allowed to admonish them, but today none of us know how to admonish...
There are those who are regularly involved with hating [the secular] and consistently publish pamphlets about hating the wicked, and eventually they end up scoffing at the gedolei yisroel. The Chazon Ish and the Steipler said to vote in the elections, and they are scoffing at the Chazon Ish and the Steipler. The result is that their entire goal that is expressed as hating the wicked is done not l'shem shamayim.
