 *The application of the example of Scapegoating in psychoanalytic theory is acceptable. To be consitent I challenge  to edit many Hebrew Bible articles on Wikipedia that insert mountains of informations from truly unverified and irrelevant sources into articles (see examples at David and Jonathan erotic interpretation; Adam and Eve ancestry and evolutionary biology) that touch upon characters imortant To Judaism (remember that topic?) and revert them until those truly weird editors ""get it right"" according to his criteria. 
 *How is Barry Gurary leaving Lubavitch different to an abdication especially in view of the fact that he was the only male relative eligible by birth to become Rebbe of Lubavitch? (Being born the son or grandson or nephew of a Rebbe is the only known direct line to becoming the successor Rebbe of a Hasidic dynasty. Or am I missing something here?) 
 *Seen from Barry Gurary's perspective, there should be nothing wrong in assuming that he was entitled to at least some ownership of his grandfather's books, especially if the grandfather never said anything to the contrary as far as is known. Indeed his mother, who was a daughter of the sixth Rebbe, thought what Barry Gurary did was legal. For that she was assaulted and almost blinded by a Lubvitcher crazy-head thug, or is that not relevant? Hmm? See this gruesome picture of what happened to Barry Gurary's mom:  part of an article that reads: Tzemach Atlas links to a post on CrownHeights.info that contains links to audio files of a farbrengen (informal talk within a hasidic gathering) given by the titular head of worldwide Chabad, Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky. In this talk Rabbi Krinsky admits the Rebbe's sister-in-law, the eldest daughter of the sixth rebbe, was beaten and blinded by a Lubavitcher rabbinical student (second audio file about 1/3 of the way in), admits that Chabad did everything in its power to stop the Rebbe from being deposed by a New York court regarding his incitement of that incident, and frequently refers to the grandson of the sixth Lubavitcher rebbe, Barry Gourary, as the ""sitra achra."" 
 *What can explain the ferocity of Lubavitch's antipathy to Barry Gurary? That he wanted his grandfather's books? See this comment that is worth noting from someone who has rejected the Lubavitch party line: It also should be noted that the sixth rebbe's library, the source of the dispute that led to the beating, contains many interesting secular books collected personally by the sixth rebbe beginning when he was still a child. Included were editions of Sherlock Holmes in Yiddish and other works of fiction. Chabad, despite what Rabbi Krinsky says on the audio files, could not go to an independent beit din (religious court), because no independent beit din would have awarded the library to them. The secular court was untroubled by the normative Jewish law regarding inheritance, and by the presence of secular books – which by the estimates I've seen made up a large part of the collection. A beit din would have awarded those books – all of them – to the surviving male heir, the sixth rebbe's grandson, Barry Gourary. And so, Chabad did what haredim so often do – whatever was most convenient. (From ) 
 *Barry Gurary was loyal to his family, particularly his parents, and was a loyal Jew, despite any lashon hara against him emanating from Lubavitch or any other source. See this photo of Barry and his mother in their old age, is this a Jew gone astray?: caption reads: This picture shows Barry Gourary and his mother leaving from the visit with the Munkatcher Rebbe in Boro Park where she was negotiating to be buried in the Munkatcher cemetery.
