TCG – because the two WTC planes caused the most destruction, by far. (3,000 victims compared to about 100 at the Pentagon and Pennsylvania.)

The oldest beis hakevorim in Europe are seperated like this, too.

Because the biographies on the great Jewish men also cover the great Jewish women (who are their wives.)

I was walking to vote in the NYC primary election that day, and someone told me outside the public school that a plane hit the WTC. I figured it was an accident and it reminded me of the time a plane hit the Empire State Building many years ago. After voting, on the way home, I saw big clouds of smoke rising from Manhattan. Then I knew it was much bigger.

It was no prank at all.

That’s a good thing.

Romance is a goyishe concept.

A Jewish State before Moshiach is forbidden according to Torah Law.

I sincerely doubt he said it in the context quoted. At minimum he was quoted grossly out of context.

That’s why we need many many Yeshivaleit and Kollelleit, so that we shouldn’t lose that one needle in the haystack who will be the next godol hador.

The secular legal definition and the halachic definition of ownership are not necessarily the same.

“Little I Know”: A few questions.

1) What makes you believe the tactics marriage therapists or counselors are trained on and practice are actually effective and helpful rather than ineffective or even unhelpful and counterproductive?

2) What makes you believe rabbonim are not helpful?

If it is based upon the “stories” your therapist friends told you (or anecdotal stories), of course that is their opinion of their field. And their negative opinion of rabbonim. Yet if you spoke to rabbonim instead of your friends, they may tell you how therapists inflicted more damage than help, and how the rabbonim are busy fixing up what the therapists ruined.

Many very frum people don’t hire a videographer, anyways, as a matter of principle.

Who needs more details. B”H he is fine, that’s all that matters and that’s all we care. Any further details is a wrong invasion of his privacy.

Bad pictures doesn’t constiture a ruined wedding.

Wolf: I am responding to Sam’s incorrect implication that halacha allows casual talking with women or girls.

A parent could have parented one child well while parenting another child bad. So the fact one sibling is good and one bad, doesn’t disprove that the bad one received bad parenting.

Wolf: Taking the liberty of speaking on behalf of many, we don’t appreciate your ill-humored leitzanus in trying to be dismissive of halachos.

Sam, so why build women mikvas? They can use their shower at home.

Doesn’t Shulchan Aruch pasken that a male is prohibited from even indirectly sending a greeting to a woman through her husband (!!), let alone greeting her directly.

greg: People long before they’re dating and even long after they’re married are, often, also guilty of having less than platonic conversations or greetings, all the while being in self-denial about it.

I asked, and no one can answer, specifically what are marriage therapists “trained” on? What field of medicine? How is that medicine better equipped to resolve the quarreling of two individuals? How is quarreling a matter of medicine as opposed to, say, human interaction as G-d wishes human beings to interact with each other — that, presumably, a man of G-d would be best equipped to address. How is it a matter of medicine? And what kind of “medicine”, exactly? How does said medicine resolve the quarreling?

And how does the therapists “training” equip him to resolve marital disputes? What, precisely, was he “trained”, that qualifies him to resolve disputes between two parties?
