speaking of chassidim changing things from the gemara.....
I was specifically coming off your typo.
LOL.
Didn't the current discussion start with a question about who Lubavitchers will offer to put on tefillin with?
BTW, you might be surprised at the number of Yeshivish bochurim who will ask to make a brocho on Lulav and Esrog from a Lubavitcher who is going around offering it to people.
ETA: how is this changing the Gemorah? Does the Gemorah imply that an ישראל who hasn't sinned is not a ישראל and Ahavas Yisroel should not be applied to him or her?
