Of course seminaries cause the shidduch crisis. The shidduch crisis is caused by boys asking for too much money, leaving girls whose parents can’t afford it without a shidduch. Some familes go into major debt to fund the outrageous tuition fees charged by the seminaries, so can’t afford to marry the girls off afterwards.

Alternatively:

Of course seminaries cause the shidduch crisis. The shidduch crisis is caused by too many girls wanting to marry learning boys, and there not being enough learning boys for them to marry. Who brainwashed them to want to marry learning boys? The seminaries, of course.

Alternatively:

Of course seminaries cause the shidduch crisis. The whole shidduch crisis is a hoax, designed to make someone a profit. Now let’s see who stands to profit.
As everyone knows, a girl can’t get a shidduch unless she goes to seminary. Therefore, seminary is an absolute requirement for a shidduch, creating a huge demand. The law of supply and demand says the higher the demand relative to the supply, the higher the price people will pay. So obviously, it’s the owners of the seminaries who created the shidduch crisis hoax in order to be able to charge their exorbitant tuition fees and still fill up.

Hence, the seminaries caused the shidduch crisis.

I haven’t read through the whole thread so I don’t know if this question has been asked.

Why doesn’t the OP marry a girl who comes from a LWMO home but now shares his hashkofos?

Of course you benefited from the water. If it was assur b’hana’ah, you wouldn’t be allowed to use it.

For some reason, you seem to think you can say whatever seems right to you, and ignore what the poskim say.

If you drink water for refuah, you are benefiting from the water (even according to your definition of benefit which requires that you want the water to stay), yet the halacha is that you don’t say a bracha. (שו”ע או”ח ר”ד ח’ ומ”ב מ”ב).

Bloomberg is the most vindictive person in politics.

Not more than Trump

Reb Eliezer, קפה spells the Hebrew word for ☕.

CTL, you would vote for Bernie over Trump, throwing Israel under the bus?

So this is the position that confuses me a bit, so why not get a different Republican?

The Republicans tried that. His name was Mitt Romney. That didn’t work.

Reb Elizezer: ” richness brought him to his death:”??
Did your rav mean that the fact he was affluent allowed him to charter a helicopter?

I’m not R’ Eliezer’s rov, but they generally don’t allow helicopters to fly in such fog, so whether you want to blame it on his wealth or his fame, it’s pretty clear that an ordinary Joe wouldn’t be flying in those conditions.

The supermarkets will use a lot more boxes than they currently are. They charge for them.
My biggest question is: now what are we going to use to throw out diapers?

Where are you paying $8 a bulb? Even when they’re not on sale they’re more like $3.

Also they generally look nicer than CFL.

So you think you should ask their advice, but disregard it if you don’t like what they tell you.

Certainly don’t follow gadolhadorah’s advice; she thinks a bochur shouldn’t be “bullied” by what his parents and rebbeim advise!

Can you make a mechanically powered car

You mean a bicycle?

CY, how do you explain kapparos for children and even for an unborn child?

Rav Soloveichik not only allowed women to learn Gemara but inaugurated the bet midrash at Stern College.

Fits in with his overall approach to compromise in Yiddishkeit because he didn’t think it would survive in its traditional form. R’ Aharon proved him wrong, which he reportedly ended up admitting.

I didn’t write the laws.

You may be misunderstanding them.

I is against the law to park in a New York City driveway overnight. While on the books I have never heard of enforcement.

That doesn’t make sense. Why would it be illegal to park overnight in your own driveway?

So you think reading novels such as Fatal Judgement makes people go OTD?

I have no idea which book you’re talking about, but you can’t generalize that all Jewish books (I mean the ones published by and for frum people) are bad because you found a small minority which you found problematic.

Same way you can’t generalize that secular books are okay because you found a small minority that are clean.

Contrast that to Jewish novels of today which as a relative who was off the derech told me ”are a guidebook for going off the derech ”

That’s a new one – I’ve heard of OTD people blaming their parents and rebbeim; never Jewish novels.

Frankly, that’s that’s utter nonsense.

Similarly, even though he surely is not an anti-semite, but he makes himself look like one.

Looks like one? He’s probably the most openly pro Jewish public figure we’ve ever seen.

You are over-analyzing things.
Maybe you have commitment issues?

You realize that years of the tefilos in question were never made, as you were telling Hashem the wrong thing.

What exactly does it mean to not be yotzei Kabbolas Shabbos?

Of course, Joseph is wrong halachically. There’s no reason the merchant needs to assume that the transaction is without the explicit or implicit permission of the husband. If he would want to challenge the transaction, he would need to prove that it was outside of their normal spending patterns and was without permission, which is nearly impossible to do.

This is is all assuming she didn’t say איני נזונת ואיני עושה, in which case the whole thing doesn’t start.
