They actually said "your kids shouldn't grow up like Lubavitcher kids" ?

Along a similar vein, here's a famous drawing by Escher
Ooooh.   Any surprise that he has always been my favorite?!!

In that case I would reiterate:

If you enjoy these kinds of things then I would recommend Douglas Hofstadter's book 'Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid'. This book had my head spinning for the few weeks it took me to read it (I couldn't read more than one or 2 chapters at a time).

Or for a less heavy version see the sequel 'I Am A Strange loop'.

You can say what you think when you think what you say.

2,000 years later and we still can't fix the sin that caused the destruction of the 2nd bayis.  Sad.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Very liberal translation:

An organization (Lubavitch) is making on Lag Baomer a Lag Ba’omer parade –
And they are making propaganda to get heimeshe kids to come – but it is an event that is Ain ruach chachomim noche heimenu.
We request that you don’t let our kids attend.
Hashem should help that the zechus of Rashbi should protect us, so we can be mechanech our children to hashem and his torah.

Keep in mind that this is for the Boro Park parade,  not the crown Heights one.  The CH one is obvious they wouldn't go,  but boro Park I'm sure will "cater to their clientele"

This is nothing to do with hate.
There are very strong hashkafik disagreements between many sects and chabad. (-really?!  ;) ) For whatever reason, Chabad always had an interest in selling/trying to influence others to their derech and hashkafa. -Arguably this is what the parade idea was all about.- Satmar and others are entitled to raise their kids al pi their derech without the kids having undue influence from other mehalchim. When I was growing up, we were also warned very strongly not to go near the chabad parades which were designed to entertain and entice kids....

Not trying to start a chabad bashing fest, I just don't think that satmar is so out of line here at all.

While you may have a point on the letter, the phone call was way out of line...

Besides, the Lashon Ein Ruach Chachomim Nocha, doesn't imply "they have different Hashkafos from us" it implies "Those guys are wrong! You don't want your kids looking like them..."
