Question
Is it permissible to bless a heretic (such as state leaders, etc.) who shared his wisdom, considering he denies the fundamental principles? Additionally, recently one of the state leaders (etc.) put on tefillin. Is there any desecration in this, as he used the tefillin to gain popularity?
Answer
Hello Rabbi
A. We do not bless, as his wisdom came through transgression.
B. What difference does it make if he has another transgression on the list...?
