- I suppose that's why the Chabad has declared the Rebbe as the Messiah...
- after he was "dead" in his recent illness... Are you really trying to say
- that anyone who declares someone as Messiah before all the requirements are
- complete can't be part of Judiasm? Are the Chabad Jews now separate from the
- Jewish people because they believe they know who the Messiah is... before
- world peace arrives?
