Here is a randomly chosen question: Are we crying about the real tragedies facing our people? Did you cry about the fact that sixty percent of so-called Modern Orthodox Jews don't believe in divine providence? Did you cry that nearly fifty percent don't go to the mikvah? These are our brothers and sisters going off the derech right in our own communities.

The real tragedy is the spiritual decline within Modern Orthodoxy—evidenced by widespread disbelief in divine providence and disregard for mikvah—and the lack of lament over it. People cry over material losses but not the spiritual state of their brethren, the Shechinah in exile, or global Jewish non-observance. This self-focused crying is idolatry, as Rambam teaches we must respond to communal tragedy with teshuva, not blaming external factors. Rabbis today prioritize not offending over truth, while our people perish spiritually. True belief means crying only for Kavod Hashem and the spiritual plight of Am Yisrael, not personal woes. Therefore, we must: 1) Cry for the spiritual return of lost Jews and for Modern Orthodoxy to embrace true Torah observance. 2) Direct tzedakah to help Jews return to Torah, not to unite with heretical movements. 3) Take personal responsibility for bringing Mashiach by actively helping other Jews do teshuva, lest more tragedies force us to awaken.
