If you think the Shul is having a heavy heart knowing how to handle this-imagine what this does within our individual families if this issue comes up-..WAKE-UP MY PRECIOUS LANDSMAN! This is a mere example of what is going on in some of our OWN-YES OWN “PERFECT YIDDISHE” Families—So until we FACE IT and FACE with it with strength from HaSHEM ,it will just continue..THIS GREAT RABBI WAS AND IS MENTALLY ILL.PERIOD! ANYONE WHO SEXUALLY ASAULTS ANOTHER PERSON IS TWISTED.STOP MAKING EXUSES SO YOU DON’T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE RAGE YOU ACTUALLY FEEL BY THE BETRAYAL,mixed emotions,etc. that you now are forced to feel because of HIS actions. Multiply that by 1000—that’s how the survivor feels—HOW DO I KNOW? Take a guess…...As far as his Picture? Please…He represents CHAOS..not JUDAISM or JUSTICE to me…...You MUST Remove his Picture..or continue to live in Denial.It’s like being a little bit pregnant. May Hashem guide you to a Breakthu that leads you to a new found place of SHALOM ith withis subject and within the Shul. B’Hashem

Shul Breaks From Rabbi Max
Please, enough is enough. Can’t we just let the Rabbi Max situation go. He was found guilty. He is sufficiently embarrased. Why keep harrasing this elderly man. He has been sufficiently punished.
Whether or not one believes justice has or has not been done, it’s time to move on to the next scandal. Rabbi Max’s behavior has been the worst kept secret in the Jewish community for decades. The saddest part of this whole situation is that it took so long for his actions to finally come to light.
Let me see if I have this right. Someone harasses and molests women in our community, and because he also did good things years ago, a shul is agonizing over a decision as to whether or not to sever their ties with him? Mussolini made the trains run on time, too. Get over it already. These are our wives and daughters we’re talking about! Swift and severe justice is the only recourse.
