Death.
There is no problem “with the system.” This is Stan a Nisayon of this generation from Hashem..period. Only Tefilla helps.
Why doesn’t everyone have the same attitude when it comes to the Shidduch “crisis?!” Why is it then ok to run after every Shadchan, think up every kind of age-related and other ridiculous “solutions” and everything else people do to jump thru hoops thinking it will help get them married? It all comes down to the same, shadchanim, mekubalim, etc are all not the so,union. Only tefillah and Hashem are.
Who said anything about sitting around doing nothing? I never did, I said a person is obligated to do their Hishtadlus but the fact is, Hishtadlus accomplishes nothing. If you don’t beleive that, then you’re guilty of believing in Kochi v’otzem yadi. But driving oneself nuts running after every Shadchan, every new “so,union,” Segulah, etc. is nothing more than a desperate lack of Emunah.
With all due respect you sound a bit unable to grasp a simple concept. “ALL Chassidishe girls are married?!” And are ALL non-Chassidish girls NOT married? Where does this kind of ridiculous reasoning come from? Perhaps immaturity, I take it you’re very young? Your over simplifications and irrelevant over-exaggerated examples really don’t help make a case for you,
Where’s the original post ?
How can you compare to the example of someone stealing?! It states clearly that everything is in the hands of Hashem EXCEPT for Yiras Shamayim (the choice between doing Aveiros or Mitzvos). That clearly means that Hishtadlus accomplishes nothing, it’s still all up to Hashem. Of course He wants us to make effort in order to allow for events to happen in the natural order, but again, worrying about age and all minds if other desperate solution seeking accomplishes zero. Only Tefiila and Emunah. Only Hashem decides and decides when and if to make it happen. Not the Shadchanim, not the Rabbanim, not the many so called solutions will work.
What I take issue with, in all these discussions and searches for solutions concerning the so-called Shidduch “crisis” is: WHERE IS THE EMUNAH?! Where is the belief that everything comes from Hashem?! When Hashem decides it’s time to send someone their Zivug (and let’s not forget that everyone has a Zivug), then you’re going to get married! No such thing as a Shidduch crisis! Having to wait for your Bashert is merely a heart-wrenching Nisayon but a Nisayon, like many other difficult Ones, nevertheless ! Why isn’t there a movement to solve the infertility “crisis” as well, for those couples going thru that heartbreak?! Because the answer is simple: the only thing that can help solve ANY crisis, is Tefillah. Rabbi Ezriel Tauber, shlita, once said in a Shiur I was at, “A single can technically sit and twiddle his thumbs, and he won’t get married any later than if he runs after every Shadchan in the world !” The only reason we do our (reasonable, not excessive!) Hishtadlus is because Hashem commands us to, but in reality, our Hishtadlus accomplishes nothing! Hashem is controlling it all, we are merely puppets. The only solution to the Sidduch crisis and others is Emunah and Tefillah. Period.
To prove there’s no difference between Hamas’s and the PA, look no further than the fact that the 2 joined in a unity govt.! They are now to be considered one and the same! The only difference is Hamas’s is open and honest about their goal of destroying Israel c”v, while the PA tells that quietly in Arabic to their own people,while claiming in English to the rest of the gullible world that they’re willing to “make peace” with Israel.
This is so disturbing and absurd! Look what was done with the many millions in donor aid that were originally sent to Gaza to help them “build a productive land” for themselves ! The money funded rockets, cement for building of tunnels and other ammunition to use against Israel. They destroyed all the greenhouses that Israel generously left for them, and made a Churban out of the place! Where do you think the next amount of millions will go? To rebuild houses?! It will go to help Hamass restock and regroup! Write to your senators and congressmen! No more aid to terrorist Hamas’s!!
Then the onus is on their parents. They are the ones responsible for keeping them safe. And that means not voting in a terrorist entity sworn to Israel’s destruction. These people had a chance to show their “civility” by voting for change and growth. Instead they voted in known terrorists, destroyed the greenhouses the Israelis left for them, caused destruction, and instead of using the many millions of don’t aid money for growth and productivity, the money was used to buy and build rockets and buy cement for tunnels. Now these people reap what they sow. They have only themselves and their leaders to blame,not Israel.

But contrast his immediate response to the news that a Pali was (supposedly) found murdered: strong condemnation….for two weeks when the Kedoshim were missing, he didn’t say a word.
