Better Know a Kofer!

Daas Hedyot has another great interview with a perfectly normal person, from a perfectly normal background, who went off the derech for perfectly normal reasons. But you don't need to read the whole interview, as I will summarize it here.

DH: Describe to me your background.
N: I gew up in Crown Heights in an extremely strict Baal Teshuvah Lubavitcher family.
DH: So what made you go off the derech?
N: Which part of ' I gew up in Crown Heights in an extremely strict Baal Teshuvah Lubavitcher family' did you not understand?

Tune in next week when we interview someone who was raised as Toldos Aharon in Meah Shearim, but eventually left Judaism because they found it 'restrictive'.
