I may have misused the word heretic. I only meant that he held a heretical belief. This in and of itself does not prevent one from entering heaven so long as the belief was of an innocent nature, that is the Church did not tell you otherwise or you would have repented had you known. Even St. Augustine was too extreme with predestination but he is certainly a Saint.

Oh, that’s true… 🤷
 
It is true that many Hasidic teachings seem heretical, even satanic at first glance. They must be pondered for a long time before fully understood.

I wouldn’t go so far as to say they appear satanic. I think we are free to study Jewish Hasidism, as long as in is put a rung under infallible Catholic teaching, and if they contradict in an area, to prefer the Catholic understanding.

As for me, I’ll just stick to Blessed Llull and his Dignities.
