The Chassidim need these ceremonies because they don't use Facebook, Instagram and Twitter...so they come up with these odd, bizarre minhagim to keep them entertained and busy ..
Maybe they have it right .... who knows?
Does anyone out there know if the Kohain Gadol in the Bais Hamikdash had a lavish ceremony like this to burn the wicks?

Chasidim believe that הדלקת נר חנוכה is only the הכנה of the Mitzvah.
The actual Mitzvah is burning the wicks.
Chasidishe “beliefs” are like anal sphincters. Everybody has one.
Maybe a demo on how to firebomb dissidents like Rottenberg & Fromowitz who would dare try to arrange a minyan for bed-bound sick patients or try to avoid child molesters.
"Chassidim need these ceremonies because they don't use Facebook, Instagram and Twitter so they come up with these odd, bizarre minhagim to keep them entertained and busy" ???
OMG what an odd comment, what a chilil hashem... After all our ennemies don't really need to hate us that much if we already do it from inside.
And you DIN, don't you have dozens of your own minhagim for the Paysach seder night for example ? Don't you drei around swiveling a live chicken around your head every year, hoping that bird will download and atone all of your sins ? Don't you dance under the moon like an african sorcerer everytime you finish kiddish levono ? Come on be serious !
Do you really believe that people using FB Instagram and Twitter (and these satanic devices are merely 2 decades old) are so much superior to those heilige yidden - hassidish litvish iraqis or yemenites - who take time to keep the Toira hakedoisha and minhagei avoiseinu from generation to generation ?

First of all I don't do Kapprois with a chicken because I actually agree with those commentaries that believe that it's "darkei amoirie"
My Seder Night minhagim are not "made up" but are minhagim dating back to the Gemarrah ...
"Dancing around under the moon like an african sorcerer" ... is actually brought down in the Mishna Berurah"as a minhag and this burning and kissing his gartel isn't brought down anywhere...
This blog is an inside Jewish blog which has an audience of 99.9% frum Jews so I'm not worried by your idiotic comment
"our enemies don't really need to hate us that much if we already do it from inside."
I don't write hate I call out crazy stuff when I see it as does "Kikar Ha"shabbos" "Bechadrei Chadorim" "yeshivaworld" and others...
and "our enemies" don't give two hoots whether the Skverer Rebbe burns his wicks or whether he tosses it into the trash...or if his students kiss his gartel ...
My comment about Facebook etc was sarcastic ...
Either way I appreciate that you follow my blog since in just a couple of minute I will be hitting according to Google analytics ..10 million viewers ... which you can see on the right column on the side below.....
Love you always :)
DIN stop with the לצנות
