No one take offence, but it’s a valid point for the purpose of this point.

Once the disciples of the Baal Shem Yov saw a strange sight in backwards Russia, before the river thawed from the winter freeze, the priest would carve a cross, thus permit the water to be drunk.
When his disciples saw him, they challenged the Baal Shem Tov, as he taught, all that one sees is there to teach you something.
Answered the Baal Shem Tov (a bit of a lengthily subject, but keeping it brief for it still serves the point) kelipah needs coldness.
In other words, no matter how debauched, distant, and even opposing to God’s will what you see and hear; there is always a lesson (though at times what not to do) in it!
