Responding to critics

“I would like to start off by saying that although I’m a fan of rabbi Wolbe and his podcasts, as with everything in life I pride myself by the honesty and unbiased stances I take on different subject matters.
I wanted to respond to a couple of critics who I thought wrote unfair and simply untrue reviews in regards to rabbi Wolbe’s history podcasts.
“Hear-n-Now” called rabbi Wolbe ignorant for heralding Moses as the greatest leader we or any people have ever had.
Rabbi Wolbe has vast amounts of history on his fingertips and has formed an opinion about Moses’ leadership. Everyone is welcome to disagree. But categorizing that statement as “ignorant” shows a clear haughtiness and self-centeredness reserved for meaningless YouTube comments, not for a review section created to aid undecided podcast listeners in regards to which podcasts to download and enjoy.
“jessicaweirdly” was upset that rabbi Wolbe made sweeping Islamophobic generalizations about Muslims. She respects the Rabbi’s opinion on how to dissect certain texts but was bothered that he didn’t choose “more magnanimous, fair language”.
I think it is fairly obvious that this podcasts reflects rabbi Wolbe’s opinion on how to interpret the texts he is discussing. It is not his duty to be fair or magnanimous. It IS his responsibility to be honest and truthful when creating this podcast. If you want magnanimous language in regards to Muslims I recommend listening to a speech by congresswomen IIhan Omar or Rashida Tlaib.”
