“Rabbi Aharon Lichtenstein, of blessed memory, was a man of giant intellect, equally at home in the literature of the sages and of the world, a master talmudist, a profound exponent of Jewish thought, a deep and subtle thinker who loved English literature and whose spiritual horizons were vast.”

– the above was written by one of the leading figures in the MO community. He equates rabbi lichtenstiens gadlus bitorah with gadlus in literture. To the charedi community this korov liapakarsus. (I am not saying anything against rav lichtenstien . there is not necceserily anything wrong with knowing literture – perhaps it is even required altz torah im derech eretz. But to say that was an ikkar chelek of his gadlus is pretty silly.)

i believe r’ isser zalman bought a ray’ah from a gemoroh in bechoros that people saw much further (it tooks there how far a sheppard could see his sheep – i don’t remmember where) . he suggests using artifical light (including candlelight) ruins our eyes. he says that the bedouins see better since they don’t use artifical light.

basicly charedim live around torah and halacha and that is the only ideal mo have ideals and values and belifes besides for torah

Rav Peretz Steinberg is extremely ehrlich.- that’s a lie (or chisaron yideah)

ask any responsible dayan

“When a Muslim would prostrate himself in the street to Daven, the Maharil Diskin wouldn’t walk within 4 Amos, as is the Halachah regarding one who is davening Shmoine Esrei – because he swas there during thier Tfillos.”

source??

i find it hard to believe because the din is only by shmone esrai and first passuk of shema , it’s not mistaber a muslims tefilah can be better then all other teffilos of ours.

the basic idea of a joint prayer gathering is to say that jews and muslims are the same and equel – which is false!
