Being Critical

Moshe was imperfect yet nevertheless was a worthy leader of Bnai Yisrael.  

Avraham avinu was a faulted human being who lied and said his beautiful wife was his sister in order to protect himself, nevertheless he was our worthy patriarch.

Otto Schindler was a womanizer yet he risked his life and saved many helpless Jews.

Martin Luther King was an adulterer yet he was an unmatched Civil Rights leader.

Sadat attacked Israel on Yom Kippur yet he made peace with Israel.

What other flawed human beings deserve our praise and appreciation?

-Rabbi Gershon Weissman

Don't be too quick to condemn for no person lives without warts.

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
