how do you know if God accepts incensere tefillos or not. if your point is correct then most of everything we do would be worhtless. its kind of like when everyone closes their eyes when they get an aliya. all of a sudden everyone is a huge tzadik who’s eyes role into the back of their heads when making a brocha. Mitoch shlo lishma ba lishma.

I didnt see Feif Un’s comment and I would like to state for the record that I was being sarcastic. I am typing this on my own laptop. (and in a library – ???? ???????? [sorry, cant type ayins])

Its a Dell XPS M1330. Its a great computer. Dell has laptops in the $800’s and you they hae the best customer service.

squeak,

You must be a mekubal because you speak in riddles.

torahis1:

Finally someone else who understands anonymous personalities for what they are. I would thank you for your comment, but that is really something that Joseph does and it always reminds me of children slapping five after they finish bullying another child.

I happen to have a theroy about Joseph. I believe he looks at himself as a self appointed moderator of YWN. He seaarches for discussions that he doesn’t like and tries to interfere and interupt them. He may have even asked a Rav if he should do it and recieved a reply in the affirmative. Since if he never spoke to a Rav abot using a computer he is just a unbelievable hypocrite. (He may actually be a real moderator that poses as a Member to try and steer discussions in a certain way).

teen:

You probanly don’t see or recognize the constant negativity and dislike of others coming from Joseph. You have an appropriate screen name.

moish01:

So not only can people not use the internet, but now they can’t even have lively dicussions! I don’t believe that personal attacks that take place here are so bad, as everybody is anonymous. I never felt insulted when everone started ganging up on me.

Yes, but science has proven it takes six weeks.

I feel you may be suffering from Stolckhome Syndrome.

Mw13,

Regarding your second point. Your close and personal friend Joseph seems to spend much of his waking hours on YWN. I however in addition to having a job, keep a daily four (4) hour seder with my chavrusa. So exuse me if I don’t share in your vorts on a internet blog. If I want to see a vort ill open a sefer.

Joseph, you’ve managed to do it again. You gave a response. “Kefira IS I problem yada yada yada”. There was no tachlis to that comment. You didn’t provide any reasons why you believe that. You did it simply to get under his skin. It was NOT productive in anyway.

Joseph,

That meaningless and purposely agitating (attempted) comment is a perfect example of what i have been saying about you all along. Nowhere have I said women don’t need to cover their hair. You know I didn’t. This is just part of your poor debating skills.

Secondly, who made some anonymous dude named YW Moderator 99 the arbitrator of what is “anti-torah”? If he would have bothered to have actually read and understood my comment he would have posted it. Again, your falling back onto something you don’t even understand as your support. Another example of your poor and immature debating skills.

YW Moderator 99,

Absolutely nothing I wrote bashes Rabbonim. You can pick on my words “disturbs your own sensitivities”, but that is exactly what this is. There wasn’t a false word in what I wrote, nor was anything negative towards anyone other then the Kanoyim – who are not the Rabbonim – and know how to get what they want.

Anyway i’m not mochel you for embarrassing my anyonoumous personality.

(EDITOR: Stop ignoring me. I have a right to respond to people who attack me. Can you at least edit out what disturbs your own sensitivities.)

****Deleted****

OK – I edited out the parts that “disturbs my own sensitivities”.

We do not and will not accept posts that bash Rabbonim. You have the right for your opinion, but if it anti-Torah, anti-halacha or anti-Rabbonim please don’t express it here. Please feel more then welcome to take your comments elsewhere.

I’m sorry if I am being to tough, but your post truly bothered me.

Have a good Shabbos!

–YW Moderator 99

Notpashut,

I’m getting tired of the hypocrisy that is constantly shown on this site. If you want to defend the rabbonim that’s fine and right. But to go so far as to say that flatbush is talking to a wall is ridiculous. THE GEDOLIM SHOULD STOP TALKING TO YOU because they are obviously talking to a wall.

At least have rabbonim to rely on who don’t find internet use so objectionable. You have noone. Because you don’t even listin to your own rabbonim.

You are 100% right, I put my trust and faith in GOD. And I formally dissociate myself from your heretical comment.

Joseph,

Clever.

flatbush27,

The people who stand behind him and whisper in his ear tell him everyone is evel and that the internet is all eveil, so what else would he say?

Maybe the rabbanim are underestimating their flock.

flatbush27

learning full time doesn’t mean 24 hours a day, nor is anyone expected to learn that much. Yeshiva bochrim are human beings not robots. They need rest and relaxation just like you do. Why do you care if he reads YWN as opposed to reading The J Post? Unless you want him to learn gematrias for rest, but that isn’t realistic. Students in Harvard rest from their studies, a yehiva bachur is no different and people should stop judging them.

>>I too have pictures of frum family members showing all of their hair (once again, great job making an accusation without basis of facts).<<

I know you had relatives who didn’t cover their hair. That was my initial point. Unless ones whole family is from Hungary, they have had many relativs and great grandmothers who didn’t cover their hair.

>>By saying what you did, “He wrote that it is no longer a dover sheberva and therefore a man can make a brocha in front of uncovered hair” you ventured into a halachic conversation<<

If you followed my debate with Joseph, you would have seen that my claim wasn’t one of halacha. Rather he tried to correct me stating that women indeed covered their hair. I quoted the Novordoker Rav who wrote that in his time the uncovered hair of women was so rampant that it no longer constituted a davar hamekusa. Without that sentence I would not have been able to use him as a source for my point. It stresses the fact that it was more than just a few women, but rather whole communities.

>>Where is the ignorance. I only requested that you make it known why you were quoting the aruch in the first place, which you did not. <<

I appologize for using that term.

I have written countless times what my purpose in quoting the Aruch was.

>>but your original comment and subsequent justifications are akin to saying that we say 3 times day in davening : ??-??-????? ??? ??-?????? ?????.<<

You already lost the debate. Never did I write that the Aruch Hashulchan paskend that a womwn doesn’t neeed to cover her hair. What I wrote was that he confirms that during his lifetime, women did not cover her hair. So I am correct, as he confirms the fact that they didn’t. squeek, joseph and now apparently you get to exited when you see an issue like hair coveing, so you don’t even bother to read the comment in its entirety.

squeak,

I have no agenda, i responded to a purposely agitating comment by Joe. I have seen his comments for a while and i beleve he goes around to disturb different forums.

More importantly I did not correct any errors. I have the truth and the facts on my side. If people want to change history for whatever reason, it’s not my problem. I will happily tell my children that Miriam spoke loshon hara about her brother, about Yehuda and Tamars relationship and that their great grandmothers, although they were zadekises, they did not cover their hair. Thats all.

Joseph,

You are an agitator. It’s a cute line you came up with: “you are mistaken”. Ive seen you use it before. don’t deny history. It doesnt serve anyone any good.

The facts are that it in no way maligned anyone by saying they didnt cover their hair bacuse at the time there was no chiyuv, the reason being as the Novordoker Rav wrote that hair is no longer a davar hamekusah. (hair covering is d’rabbanan)

If you write “you are mistaken” it will be to the aruch hashulchan, not me. Let me see you write that.

my answers:

5) What do you do to relax?

Wonder what it would be like to relax in front of a TV

6) How much food do you need to be satisfied?

I usually purge afterwords so doesn’t matter.

7) What are your eyebrows like?

Burnt off after a havdala candle accident

8) During the Oscar’s, you are:

wondring why MBD is continuously snubbed for best male performance

9) Are your suits:

sleeves to long, hem to short

11) How many outfits do you go through on Shabbos?

Usually change my tie about once a shemitta (still knotted from 14 years earlier)

12) How much time do you spend doing your hair before a date?

Doesn’t take that long to smooth 4 ouces of gel into my hair, so probably 10 minutes, but of course then it takes time to realize i made a huge mistake and wash it out.

14) What brand of make-up do you use?

anything that has a chassideshe hechsher (preferabbly glatt)

ok enough im tired

Joseph,

Once againg you have proven yourself to be clueless. Frum married women in Russia, Poland and Lithuania did not cover their hair all together. It is a historicall fact you can not deny (well, you can, but anyone interested in the truth can’t). See the Aruch Hashulchan who paskens that hair in longer a dover sheberva, since woman don’t cover it anymore. Today of course it has reverted back to being a daver sheberva.

I can’t list names, but some of the most famous rabbonims wives, you learn their s’forim, did not cover their hair.

Here is my onfo if you are a shadchan:

Name: Azi

Home: Large NY Jewish Community

Yeshiva: Yes

Beis Medrash: What else would I do?

Shul: Orthodox (at least the rabbi is)

Siblings: Too many

Plan: Depends who’s asking

Education: Hashem Yishmor

Contacts: Don’t bother, their my friends, i’ve lied for them too

If you are a shadchan in from the following locations, don’t call me: Baltimore, Las Angles, Miami, Chicago (unless you are in the nursing home business) or anywhere else that’s outside of my four block radius.

Thank you, Azi
