The Children of Korach Are Still Alive

וּבְנֵי-קֹרַח לֹא-מֵתוּ - And the children of Korach didn't die.

The Bnei Yisaschar in his sefer Igra D'Kala says the following allusion from this posuk in the name of his Rebbe, Reb Menachem Mendel of Rimanov:

 

Korach, who was a baal machlokes, died, but the "children of Korach", meaning his "students", who are baalei machlokes, didn't die, because in every generation there are those that make machlokes on tzadikim.

A very large segment of the "frum" blogosphere is guilty of what the holy Rimanover said. They love to question the acts of Gedolei Yisroel including from the past. Many of these blogs (some of them are extreemly popular you'll see hundreds of comments sometimes)make it a habit of questioning such giants as the Arizal and other Kabbalists. Some of these bloggers bring up a subject enticing others to comment and it becomes one huge "motzei shem rah" jabboree. The children of Korach are very much alive on the internet.
