    look in “beitzah” ‘bais amud bais” rashi on “koach deheteira odif”

    That has no bearing on our discussion. You are implying that it is better to follow a p’sak which is more lenient; Rash”i is saying that one needs more expertise to issue a lenient p’sak, but that does not mean that any stringent p’sak comes from ignorance, chas v’shalom!

    R’feivel Kohn did an unbelievable job job in writing “Badei Hashulchan” (trying to follow the mishne berurah’s example).

    I specifically meant in ?”? in the ??????? s.v. ???? ????? ????. He discusses the issue of how common fake dairy is today compared to the times of the ??”? and ?”?.

    deiyezooger, do you realize that the city is having enough difficulty clearing our streets, especially the side streets. If you waited for them to do your sidewalk, you’d better have a very well-stocked freezer!!!!!!!!!!

    I think they could have done it by now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    What abbout all the people who use non dairy creamer in their coffee/tea after a fleshich meal?How is this OK?

    A few reasons.

    1) Very prevalent (more than cheese), although the ??? ????? is not certain of this heter.

    2) If in private, according to many poskim it’s okay if the maris ayin is relating to a d’rabbonon. Many caterers only serve non-dairy creamer in the original packaging since this heter does not apply in a public setting.

    3) The artificial dairy is not actually mixed with the meat as it is in the case of meat in almond milk (and Subway sandwiches). This is my own distinction; I have not seen it in the poskim.

    4) If the meat is no longer around (tables were cleared) there would be additional grounds to be lenient.

    A. I don’t have to figure that at all.

    Then who do you think did? (typical Jewish response – a question with a question)

    B. Even if so, have you ever heard anyone lain Tehillim with the trup?

    No

    C. Even if you did, how do you know the tune used for the trup then is the same as is used today?

    N/A

    My point was that he probably did write music, not that I ever heard it, although I can only imagine that it was spectacular.

    I think wanderingchana makes a great point (not sure if you caught it)- why would it be called Mizmor if it was not a musical composition? Many kapitlach begin “Mizmor” or “Lam’natzeiach” (to the conductor). Then again, maybe the m’natzeiach wrote the trup?

    @iyhbyu,

    @daas yochid-

    That’s the most common way to reply to someone on the internet.

    Thank you.

    Also, I’m no posek, but the people who work for the hashgachas are.

    As I mentioned, they do feel that they have something to rely on. But bear two things in mind; if a restaurant can’t get a certain hashgocha because of a particular issue, they can keep on searching until they find one which will go along with it, and the Rav Hamachshir is not necessarily my posek or yours. It’s important to be educated about the various issues in kashrus so that we can know what to ask our own poskim.

    eclipse,

    We have friend who had their apartment “bombed” for bedbugs but they’ve been clean for months now. I would say even more so if you’re moving in your own (clean) belongings.

    I don’t blame you at all for not wanting bugs; do you think I want them?!

    There is an ART to being a good guest as well as being a good host. Each one in turn should practice to perfection.

    You are 100% correct.

    I think, however, that part of the mitzvah of hachnosas orchim is putting up with the idiosyncrasies of your guests. Many people who are in need of meals (although of course not all) have issues which are the cause of the reason that they need a meal to begin with! The highest level of the mitzvah is to tolerate rude behavior (although not at the expense of your family, as in the guest which Oomis had). Just read All for the Boss!

    D.Y. I have very few requirements!!

    Enough room for us, and no bugs!

    What’s the point of moving to a possibly bug-problemmed apt.?

    I didn’t mean to imply that you’re too picky, only that there seem to be too few apartments! As far as bedbugs, they are unfortunately very common now, and my understanding is that a past infestation would not be a problem unless there is carpeting, but do your own research, I don’t know this first hand.

    onegoal,

    I beg your forgiveness for continuing the tangent (and thereby hijacking your thread).

    Does anybody care to add anything to the discussion about maris ayin of parve cheese burgers (as in fleishig burgers w/ parve cheese)?

    To reiterate my opinion; according to most poskim, (the Shach, and many acharonim explaining the R’ma) it would be assur to eat a hamburger with pareve cheese (or even a cold deli sandwich) in a public setting. The only way I see around it is to postulate that parve cheese is more prevalent today than almond milk was in the days of the R’ma, which I find unlikely. Having looked over the Badei Hashulchan, I see that this is his position (and it’s likely that I originally formulated my opinion a few years ago when learning the sefer).

    One more thing to add; if the parve cheese is melted on to the meat (while on the fire), it would even be assur according to the Shach’s understanding of the R’ma. I have no idea how they make it, though.

    iyhbyu,

    first of all, I’m just curious about your use of @. Why do you use it before the screen name?

    As far as CY is concerned, we’re probably arguing semantics, but the bottom line is as I noted earlier, that all else being equal, it’s better to use CY, even for someone who is not interested in “chumras”. You haven’t addressed the later teshuva (the one reprinted in R’ Forst’s sefer) which makes this point clear.

    As far as eiruvin, of course there are eiruvin which are 100% mutar l’chatchila (there are some around even today, i.e. in bungalow colonies); I was addressing the “local eiruv” mentioned by Oomis, which I took to mean our common neighborhood eiruvin.

    You may feel it is a kula. Those who issued the psak believe it is halacha. Don’t follow the psak, but don’t belittle the psak by labeling it a kula, which is a not so subtle dig with all its negative connotations

    I do not consider calling something a kula a dig, not even subtly. Every kula has its place, it’s to be decided on based on the circumstances. I do not judge anybody negatively if they feel the need to rely on a kula, but recognize it for what it is, so that if and when it’s easy to avoid, you will.

    To say that “eruvin in general” rely on kulos is either ignorant or stupid.

    I don’t feel the need to address the content of your post; I did that already.

    I will address, however the tone and choice of terminology.

    Why is it necessary to adopt a confrontational and degrading approach instead of carrying on a civil discussion? Please, if you disagree, present your arguments; explain why the kulos we mentioned are not really kulos. I’m ready to hear.

    There may be more kulas and I’m sure daas yochid will enlighten us.

    Sorry, I’m not as big an expert as I would like to be; you explained the two which I mentioned in more detail than I did. There is the issue of the ???”?’s ???? ????? ?? ?????, but I would consider that a ?????. Also, the way the ???? ???? is made often uses ?????, but that depends on the individual ?????.

    As far as closing threads, from what I’ve seen, the moderator closes it for a variety of reasons. Sometimes the discussion gets nasty, sometimes it goes off topic, sometimes it gets hashkafically questionable, and sometimes it’s redundant with an earlier thread or threads.

    iyhbyu,

    Sure, I’ve read his ?????. I know he holds it’s ????. Do you know that he writes that he “kept CY”? And that he recommends CY when possible? There’s a reason for it; as ????? as he considered his ????, he knew that there’s another way to learn. If fact, he later wrote, based on the increased availability and affordability, that one must get CY. It’s printed in the back of Rav Binyomin Forst’s ??? on ????? ?????(the one in Hebrew).

    Are you also aware of the fact that many great ?????? don’t agree?

    As far as ???????, most neighborhood ??????? rely on several ?????. The most common ones are the definition of a ???? ????? (less than ???? ????) and ????? ????.

    I am not chas v’shalom trying to cast aspersions on anyone who relies on any of these ????? (I’m not even claiming that I don’t rely on some myself), just pointing out that they are ?????.

    I suspect that you use the word ???? differently than I do.
