story of the Baal Shemtov: he was praying with great tense, you could feel how there was something wrong, so everyone cried out together, then in walks in a simple sheppered and cries out: "koo-koo-ree-koo" everyone looks at him and wants to tell him to get out of the shul, but.... the besht signals everyone to calm down and explains the following: there was a terrible decree on the Jewish nation r"l, but when this sinple Jew cried out koo-koo (although you might of thought that he was indeed koo-koo) this stormed the heavens and the decree was abolished. So too when a Jew walks into the deli Erev Yom Kippur and buys 2 celery sodas this is his connection to YK, we must never judge any Jew!
