To comment # 2:
You obviously have your facts wrong. Before posting a message publicly about a fellow Jew, you should do your research (and even then ask a Rov if you may publicly bash another Yid).
Professor Sarna is a Frum Yid, arguably one of America’s leading Frum academics, the world’s leading expert in American Jewish History, and an active member of Newton’s Orthodox community. He’s a super mentch who is regularly Mekadesh Shem Shomayim, and a friend of Chabad and all fellow Jews.
It is a Shanda that Chabad uses people like Dr. Sarna – someone that is affiliated with the reform movement. Instead of using good outstanding Chabad speakers [who may be Meshichisten – you would rather have reform. Where did get to???
I am definitely going this year
