adocsParticipant
Joseph,
“Nor does it have anything to do with those families who were recently falsely accused”
And you know this for certain how?
I certainly don’t know if they are innocent or guilty as i dont have any knowledge other than whats been reported to the public.
Do you have specific knowledge of this case that other people in the CR dont?

June 24, 2017 10:58 pm at 10:58 pm in reply to: Weekly Nominations for least understood sentence in YWN #1303286adocsParticipantWhat DY is saying is that a small error (though it shouldn’t be there) does not qualify for nomination. In this case the slight change of recommended to recommending fixes it.

adocsParticipant“Actually you’re the one is having knee-jerk reaction! I honestly don’t know why he responded the way he did.”
Neither do I. But you’re the one who accused him of voting for “hi-liar-ry” (ah…such maturity and ingenuity) even though that was completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand.
“I responded the way I did, because I’m familiar with that poster.”
So what? Again, what does anyone’s voting choice have to do with their opinion on this matter?
“Do yourself a favor – don’t come here and post your ingenuity, unless you’re a full time poster!”
Really? Is there some rule about posting frequency that I’m not aware of? (Actually I have a full time job, that prevents me from being a “full time poster!” (Emphasis yours) ) Do you not like what i have to say and want me shut down? That sounds like an attempt at censorship. In my experience, it’s the liberals who try to censor opposing viewpoints they don’t like.
adocsParticipantI have a child who refuses to eat anything other than peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Where should this child go to school?
adocsParticipant“LC -“Health, did you eat too many peanuts?”
Hey, how many times did you pull the lever for Hil-Liar-y Clinton?!?”
Typical of extremists – on either side. (Both conservative & liberal)
If you see/hear something you don’t agree with or if someone responds to you in a way you don’t agree – even something non-political, the automatic knee-jerk ridiculous response is to accuse them of voting for someone of the other political side.
Normal person – ” I think that people (insert anything that most normal people agree with) ”
Extremist – ” you must have voted for (insert opposing political candidate who is evil incarnate) “June 22, 2017 11:33 pm at 11:33 pm in reply to: Weekly Nominations for least understood sentence in YWN #1302850adocsParticipantPHOTOS: Jerusalem Protest On Behalf Of The Missing Yemenite Children

Incorrect. While that was once true, they currently alternate between male and female names. For example, the first several names for hurricanes in 2017 (if they form) will be
Arlene Bret Cindy Don Emily Franklin Gert Harvey
They even alternate the first name from year to year. The first name in 2018 will be male (Alberto)

Bringing any sort of “proof” from there is ludicrous.
adocsParticipantJoseph-
So you choose B

That’s a cop-out.
Answer the question.
Choose one.
A) Husband learns in kollel, while wife works
B) Husband goes to work, while wife stays home

health-
sorry buddy, you’ve got either two or four. if you want to count v’sain bracha it works exactly the same as l’hoshia mechalkel. Personally i suggest we count them both seeing as you have to repeat shmoneh esray for the lack of either omission.

oh. oops. my bad.
I’m not seeing how bar shattya is wrong, though he seems to be admitting to a mistake when he says “oops. my bad”
March 29, 2017 11:02 am at 11:02 am in reply to: Video of woman being attacked at peleg protest #1246562adocsParticipant“No one justified the little kid who kicked her. ”
Earlier you said “Only one little kid made any physical contact with her (by kicking.)”
The ‘only’ sounds very close to an attempt to justify. After all, what’s the big deal? It was ‘only’ a kid.
“But the rest of the protesters are probably justified after she did what happened before the clip started.”
Please. Tell us. What did she do before the clip started, that justifies it?
And you haven’t addressed the older bachur who took a swing ar her.
March 29, 2017 10:41 am at 10:41 am in reply to: Video of woman being attacked at peleg protest #1246547adocsParticipant“Only one little kid made any physical contact with her (by kicking.)”
That must make it OK. After all it’s only a kid. And he didn’t ACTUALLY touch her. Only kicked her. Sorry. My apologies for being critical.
“Obviously he shouldn’t have due to negia.”
Obviously he shouldn’t have due to the inappropriate action of kicking her.
FTFY“But as far as the rest of what’s happening, the video doesn’t show what she did before this clip starts.”
So what? The only excuse to hit someone would be in self defense or to protect someone else. At the time we see him ‘only kicking her’, she is just walking and not attacking him or anyone else. Hence, don’t see any justification.
P.S. on rewatching the video there does seem to be an older bachur taking a swing at her.

December 21, 2016 5:27 am at 5:27 am in reply to: Relating the Tisha B’av message from Hashem in Today’s generation #1204274adocsParticipantI started reading this loooong post because it looked like it might have some interesting material. Until I got to this part.
“3rd message:
On October 11 2006 a Yankees Baseball Players Plane (with him on it) crashed in Manhattan into a large Apartment Building, causing major damage & hundreds of lives lost.”
I looked up the event. Not to ever minimize loss of life but 2 people died. Not “hundreds”. Or anything close to that.
Once you start to make up facts, anything else you have to say – no matter the value – becomes suspect.
adocsParticipantWhy not ask both at the same time? This would save time as both sides could do their “investigations” concurrently.

“I heard of one place that had 15 employees and 12 desks and if you showed up late you didnt get a desk and had to go home. “
Sounds strange. What if all 15 showed up on time? Or early?

“Rav Shteinman paskened that even if someone is NOT learning, it is better to dodge the draft by running to India than to join the IDF.”
Did he also pasken that it is allowed to embarrass, throw things, attack, or otherwise harass those who nevertheless joined, despite his psak?
Please name actual sources.
Do not answer something ridiculous like ‘its obvious that you’re supposed to run these men out of the shul they came to daven in’
Its not obvious at all that a gadol like R Shteinman would condone this behavior.

You seem to have very specific knowledge of this.
adocsParticipantNo one has answered my question from yesterday.
In addition, i saw the following in the article on YWN about obama and netanyahu meeting next week.
So again, why would obama who is very anti-israel, approve such a large aid package?
Just wondering.
Anyone?
adocsParticipantWhy would an anti-israel like obama approve such an aid package?
Just wondering.

From your words it seems like you’re agreeing with me.
But from your exclamation marks it looks like you’re arguing with me.
Which is it?
adocsParticipantSo your “proof” that there is pritzus in the bahamas (or vegas) is that ‘everybody knows it’ ?
adocsParticipantJoseph-
The bahamas has pritzus? Really? How would you know that?
I mean, I wouldn’t know since I’ve never been there.
Have you?
adocsParticipantThere you go again with a dishonest comparison.
Had you asked any frum rav in the ’50s about shatnez, they would have unequivocally answered that it’s assur, despite the laxity or ignorance of the general public.
Please name a mainstream rav/rosh yeshiva who says that women should be staying home and not driving except as a b’di’eved
adocsParticipant“Don’t put words in my mouth.”
What have I claimed you said (or implied) that you actually didn’t say (or imply)?
“And don’t expect me to answer for an anonymous claim of a claimed event.”
You claim to know the exact behaviors of our ancestors traveling habits. And you bring that as ‘proof’ that our behavior is therefore lacking. Were you there? Did you actually see how our bubbes and zaides travelled? Or are you using circular reasoning to assume ‘well, that’s what they must have done, so therefore they did it.’ While in this specific case (ZD and rebitzin Neuman) you technically can call it an anonymous claim, by that logic, anyone’s claim here that they have witnessed something is subject to the same dismissal. And I would venture to say that most people here have seen rebitizins of choshuve rabbonim driving. Rabbonim who would not allow something that’s an outright issur. You can dismiss that if you like, but when something is collectively known and witnessed by the multitudes, it’s pretty lame to dismiss it as anonymous just because you don’t know the name of the person who’s saying it.
“And don’t argue against SA with bubbe maaisas.”
What bubbe maises? Are you denying the obvious that rebitizins of choshuve rabbonim drive with their husbands approval? see previous paragraph
“Using your so-called arguments, you’re motzi la’az on the Rambam and Mechaber.”
How so? At what point did I ever say anything negative about their words or behavior? Just because things are different nowadays, does not mean that anybody holds they were wrong at that time. And don’t try to say that Halacha is immutable and completely unchanging. While the underpinnings of halacha do not change, their application can. And that can work both ways – l’kula and l’chumra
“Why are you putting the Rambam’s holy psak in scare quotation marks?”
I only put your words from previous post in quotes.
“Do you consider the Rambam and Mechaber to be extremists?”
Again, when did I ever say that? Now, who’s putting words in whos mouth?
adocsParticipantSame here? Same here?!?
Are you actually comparing an outright torah obligation/prohibition (shatnez) to the “prohibition” of women going out more than twice a month?
And you expect to be taken seriously?
Quite possibly you are being motzi la’az on every rebbitzin and rosh yeshiva that doesn’t live by those “righteous standards” that “we aren’t able to fully maintain”
If something is an outright issur, don’t tell me that our Rosh yeshivas would allow their wives to drive (or leave the house!) because we’re “weak”.
You never addressed ZD account of rebbitzin Neuman driving. With her husband right there.
Is he
(a) ignorant of the S’A? (motzi la’az)
(b) weak (motzi la’az)
(c) openly flouting Halacha (motzi la’az)
(d) OO (motzi la’az)
That is one of the most dishonest comparisons I’ve seen here.
Only the most ignorant would fall for it.
Or propose it.
adocsParticipant“And every year there are marriage licenses issued to 14 and 15 year olds.”
Joseph – How do you know this?
adocsParticipantI find it interesting that after Joseph makes the statement “You don’t see Rebbetzins Kotler, Olshin, Schustal, Neuman, Salamon or Wachtfogel cruising around Lakewood.”
and to which zahavasdad responds with an opposing fact that directly contradicts his statement
“Actually Joseph I HAVE seen Rebbetzen Neuman drive. I saw Rav neuman get into the passenger seat and she got into the driver seat and drove him away”
that Joseph doesnt address the obvious contradiction between his assertion and ZDs eyewitness account.
adocsParticipantJoseph-
Who says that visiting her parents once a month is a maximum? Perhaps its directed to the husband as a minimum to make sure he doesnt prevent it entirely?
adocsParticipantJoseph-
How did your bubbes (and zeides) manage without
Electricity
Refrigerators
Freezers
Penicillin
just to name a few.
Unless you’re willing to give those up, (along with any other modern convenience of the last 150 years) your comparison is dishonest.
On the other hand if you truly believe that we should live as our ancestors did without any modern conveniences,(like the internet) then i guess we wont be seeing you around these parts anymore.
Dont let the door hit you on the way out.
adocsParticipantAre you saying that if we stopped “the development and inhabitation of the settlements in the volatile West Bank” , and only lived in “undisputed” cities like tel aviv, that the terrorists would stop their attacks?
Because that’s what it sounds like you’re saying.
adocsParticipant“I am old enough to remember, that when I was growing up, we would fast on ?” ???? and observe the ??? ?????? for an entire month, with no fast on ?”? ????.”
What in the world are you talking about? When was this ever done”
adocsParticipantMashiach agent-
You are wrong.
When 10 teves falls on friday, we DO fast on that day.
Likewise if erev pesach falls on friday, the taanis bechorim is on friday.
And just to get the terminology straight – it is only a nidche if pushed off i.e. Shabbos to sunday. If it is pushed earlier (as taanis esther sometimes is) its called a mukdam
adocsParticipantCTLAWYER-
The shilo siddur was and still is published by shilo publishing ( they still exist). You can easily find them with a simple search.
adocsParticipantMy rabbi told me not to post on a blog after other posters who own smartphones.
adocsParticipantI like both. Does that make me some sort of deviant?
adocsParticipantI only wear rashi.
So does my husband.
adocsParticipantPopa –
So I guess the moral of the story is if you lie 4 times while giving blood it’s a segulah to save a life.
adocsParticipantLast time I used one, was to change into my superhero costume.
