An utterly distraught religious woman came running to a Chassidic Rebbe one day, weeping uncontrollably.
“Rebbe,” she cried, “It’s my son. He went Meshuga. I think he needs a psychiatrist!” He’s really acting strange.”
“What’s the matter?” Asked the Rebbe.
“The matter?” cried the distressed woman. “He’s behaving like a lowlife! He dances with gentile women; he even began dining on swine! I’m telling you he’s crazy.”
The Rebbe looked at the poor woman as he tried to put her problems into perspective.
“My dear lady, if your son were dancing with pigs and dining on women, I would say that he is indeed insane. But the way you describe him he is not crazy at all. I’d say that he has become a very indulgent and lascivious young man. No my dear, that’s what we call ‘sinful,’ not ‘crazy.’ There’s nothing at all crazy about that.”
