CTlawyer -“all female”
That your mistake!
Even in court – I could explain what I meant – it’s all female during day classes!CTLAWYER -“The days of same sex Catholic or other colleges in the US is long gone”
In Lakewood, Georgian College is all female, but recently the night school is mixed.
LB -“I was once treated at a Catholic hospital.”
So in Brooklyn many Jews are treated in Lutheran and Methodist hospitals’!
LU -“I knew a girl who refused to say the “M” word”
What’s the “M” word?
And what’s wrong with saying it?LU -“SYAS & JWED”
I don’t use web sites, but Shadchonim, like Shadcan Mr. Sholom Blatter!
LB -“Especially with vanilla specks.”
When it comes to ice cream, you’re correct, except for the specks!
I don’t like vanilla chocolate.LU -“You thought that wasn’t true because Freud (also) said it”
That was your misinterpretation! Nowhere did I write about the truthfulness of your statements.
LU -“The idea that early influences are very strong is very much a Torah-based concept”
You’re right! Like Ben Sorr Oomorah. The Torah also has a solution, & it’s not go to therapy!
LU – Actually I heard indirectly from R’ Salomon, that you can take psychology in college nowadays because mostly it’s not Freudian based. That was one of the reasons Gedolim were against college, once upon a time!
LU -“It might have been the cause of the later happenings. The things that happen in one’s childhood can have lasting effects”
That’s very much a Freudian statement. I do believe in psychology, but not in Freud. He was a big Apikorus!
MW13 -“I am a bechor, so I have an obvious negius here”
So am I. But we’ll see what will be, I’m not scared!
LU -“Health – I’m so sorry that you had to suffer like that! It must be awful to be bullied”
So many bad things have happened to me, I don’t occupy my mind with any previous bullying!
TLIK -“I would rather hear others’ opinions on this.”
I was bullied in school. Some of them turned out alright, but some of them, continued with their behavior. Which eventually, either they got divorced or had miserable marriage(s)!
A lot of the bullies had protectzia from people in charge.LU -” whether that is true or not, it doesn’t mean that 45 year old women want to marry 60 year old men”
And there are some 60 year old men who wouldn’t go out with a 45 y.o. woman – because they want to have kids!
Shmaya -“With all the competition, where should I buy a new hat?”
I’ve gone to the hat & shoe store at the corner of 4th & Clifton.
LU -“A third problem is simply that 60 is old and 45 isn’t, and most 45 year old girls don’t want to marry someone old”
First of all, I’m not 60 – so I can comment on this!
A 60 y.o. male can still have kids, but not all 45 year old females are able to have children!LU -“Why would you still be married if you were much older than your ex-wife?”
Because whatever the reason was that she would marry an older guy – this has not changed!
LU -“Now I’ve decided that it’s more likely that more of them are female than male.”
And I decided that there’s no such thing as a female mod!
Maybe PBA, but I don’t know if s/he’s in the administration.So in the name of Tznius, you & other girls/women should stop posting here!
LU -“Health – maybe it’s the men and boys who shouldn’t be allowed to post so there would be no tznius problem.”
6 and a half or a dozen – which to pick?
And Btw, it makes sense that the girls should be ousted, not the guys, because as far as I know, there aren’t any female mods!Bmyer -“Health: Why?”
Why what?!?
Bmyer -“I know a guy that is about 55 years older than his wife”
I wasn’t that much older than my ex.
OTOH, if I was, maybe we’d still be married!Joe – Women and girls shouldn’t be allowed to post on Frum blogs, like YWN CR!
They’re called Emojis!
Ubiq -“He probably did at some point. but he (like bush) tried to avoid it.”
That wasn’t my question!
Bush did -“He does in a speech in 2005 -“Islamic radicalism, like the ideology of communism, contains inherent contradictions that doom it to failure”
“Did Obama ever say the words Islamic radicalism or Islamic terrorism, or something like this, with only 2 or 3 words together?!?”
I can imagine why you’re not answering the question!
Don’t answer – “He probably did at some point.”
Quote your idol!
Ubiq -“Lol he doesnt. read the speech he says “some call them…”
but at any rate even if he did on ocassion use the term, What does that have to do with anything”
He does in a speech in 2005 -“Islamic radicalism, like the ideology of communism, contains inherent contradictions that doom it to failure”
“”Did Obama ever make this sort of distinction?!?””
“what? yes every time he avoidied using the phrase he was making that distinction. I dont understand what you are getting at.”
Why do I have to repeat myself?
Did Obama ever say the words Islamic radicalism or Islamic terrorism, or something like this, with only 2 or 3 words together?!?
You keep trying to avoid answering the question!
Is that because you think that is no such thing as Islamic terrorism?!?
Ubiq -“He specifically says he does not view it as true representation of Islam. And note: he does not use phrase “Islamic Terrorism” that you view as so critical to defeating them.”
No one argues on your first line!
He uses the term -“Islamic radicalism; others, militant Jihadism; still others, Islamo-fascism”.
“Did Obama ever make this sort of distinction?!?”
“I’m sorry what distinction?”
Between types of believers in Islam?!?
“Also, care to answer my question
thanks
No charge for the info about Dubya BTW”
There’s nothing to charge me for! You didn’t write Dubyah was referring to George W. Bush.
I looked that up on the internet.
Ubiq -“Yep I did (though I didnt quote his exact words) the idea is the same.”
First of all, I didn’t know Dubyah was George W.’s nickname.
Second of all, Bush later on changed his policy about naming Islamic Radicalism!
From the internet:
“Mr. Bush’s speech to the National Endowment for Democracy. He not only gave several names to the force behind terrorism (“Some call this evil Islamic radicalism; others, militant Jihadism; still others, Islamo-fascism”), but he provided ample details. In particular, he:
Presented this “murderous ideology” of Islamic radicals “the great challenge of our new century.”
Distinguished it from the religion of Islam.
Drew parallels between radical Islam and communism (both are elitist, cold-blooded, totalitarian, disdainful of free peoples, and fatefully contradictory), then noted in how many ways the U.S. war on radical Islam “resembles the struggle against communism in the last century.”
Pointed out the three-step Islamist drive to power: ending Western influence in the Muslim world, gaining control of Muslim governments, and establishing “a radical Islamic empire that spans from Spain to Indonesia.”
Explained the “violent, political vision” of radical Islam as comprising an agenda “to develop weapons of mass destruction, to destroy Israel, to intimidate Europe, to assault the American people, and to blackmail our government into isolation.”
Defined its ultimate goal: “to enslave whole nations and intimidate the world.”
Observed that Muslims themselves have the burden of doing the “most vital work” to fight Islamism.
Called on “all responsible Islamic leaders to join in denouncing” this ideology and taking steps against it.
The detailed texture of Mr. Bush’s speech transforms the official American understanding of who the enemy is, moving it from the superficial and inadequate notion of “terrorism” to the far deeper concept of “Islamic radicalism.” This change has potentially enduring importance if finally, 26 years later, it convinces polite society to name the enemy.”
Did Obama ever make this sort of distinction?!?
Ubiq -“Yes. and for the record George Bush had a similar policy didi it make sense then?.”
Which George Bush and quote him. Because you’re not a reliable source!
“Here it is again:
“Assuming you view this “shitah” as an inaccurate portrayal of yidishkeit. How would you feel if when a person who had this view was arrested it was labeled “Jewish-tax-evasion” ?”
I already told you – that has nothing to do with this topic!
Start a new thread!
Ubiq – “Among several others”
Nowhere did you write what Obama said himself!
From CNN news -“Obama has taken a lot of criticism from political opponents over his rhetoric when it comes to terrorism. But on Wednesday at a CNN presidential town hall, he was asked to defend why he refuses to say “Islamic” terrorism to a Gold Star mother.”
He went on to say that if s/o says Islam and terrorism together, that implies all Muslims are Terrorists.
Now Mister Liberal, who called Trump a 3rd grader, does Obama’s statement make any sense?!?
Or does he sound like a third-grader with his comprehension of the English language?!?
Ubiq -“how? doesnt bombing have that affect?”
No, it doesn’t!
For all you know, the US had a personal problem with ISIS.
Saying “Islamic Terrorism” specifies where the problem is!
Why did Obama and the rest of the DemonCrats have a problem saying this?!?
Avram in MD -“Popa bar Abba asked when the best time to start smoking is.
2. You responded that in his case, the sooner the better, because that would benefit you. Presumably this is a joke -“
PBA is known around here as the joker. And I was responding as well in a joking form!
I guess some posters have no sense of humor!
Yidd23 -“Health, saying that it is wrong for medical professionals to harm people is not the same as saying that you said you wanted to harm people.”
Accusing me of wanting to harm people is false.
All you can accuse me of – is giving bad advice.
Meno – And that was based on this:
“If he’s a doctor that sounds extremely unethical.”
Who are you to determine what is ethical or not?!?
Yidd23 -“When did I say that you said you wanted to harm people?”
Right Here:
“that medical professionals are not supposed to harm people.”
Meno -“Now which question are you referring to?!?”
Were you referring to this question?
“Do you think it’s consistent with the Code of Medical Ethics for a professional in the medical field to suggest that a person should do something that is detrimental to his own health in order that the medical professional should benefit?”
If so, what made you ask that question to me???
Yidd23 -“I never took medical ethics in college, but in my elementary school ethics class in second grade they said that medical professionals are not supposed to harm people.”
Was that your highest grade – 2nd grade?
Where did I write that I want to harm anyone? Don’t make things up!
Meno -“That is true, but I did learn how to respond to questions. Apparently they don’t teach that in “medical ethics”.”
Now which question are you referring to?!?
Ubiq -“Of course I do, and I have read Peters. I never meant to insinuate Islam was a peaceful religion. all I said was 1) saying “Islamic Terrorism” doesnt help any and 2) It is insulting to some and can hurt/”
It definitely can help; by letting the world know that we won’t tolerate terror!
“we don’t need them for allies. We should be their partners,”
“got it! PArtners not allies, acts of terrorism not terrorists.
Tell me are you often partners with people who insult your religion?”
I’m not aware of any insult to my religion from any Iraqi.
“And we don’t need the other Muslim countries.”
“no of course not. We will tunnel to IRaq and fuel with oil from our friends in Russia and Venezuella”
I have no problem using Russia for US oil needs!
Do you?!?
Yidd23 -“And Health, if you’re acknowledging the existence of medical ethics, why doesn’t it apply to you?”
Who said it doesn’t applied to me? Who said it’s unethical? You?!?
Meno -“I went to college so I’ll respond (though I’m not sure what this has to do with college).”
Did you take “medical ethics”? I think Not!
Ubiq -“or a SCOTUS case that never happened.”
LOL!
Because you couldn’t find it – so it doesn’t exist?!?
Put your money where your mouth is!
For 2 million dollars, I’ll give you the case that went to the US Supreme Court!
Ubiq -“I believe I already told you no fewer than 3 times. Dubya too avoided the phrase for the same reason “Americans understand we fight not a religion…Ours is not a campaign against the Muslim faith. Ours is a campaign against evil”
Let me ask you a question – Do you even know what the Muslim religion preaches about other religions? I think Not!
My advice to you is to read – Time Immorial from Joan Peters!
“A. What religion do the majority of IRaqis practice?
B. Last I checked Iraq doesnt border the US”
Deja vu?”
You come here pretending you’re the epitome of intelligence, but you can’t understand my simple point!
Of course they’re Muslims, but we don’t need them for allies. We should be their partners, but we don’t need them – they need us!
And we don’t need the other Muslim countries.
“I said that the reason we were safer under Obama than Bush, was because Clinton ignored any Islamic threat!
“Lol you keep saying the same thing That were safe under Obama thanks to Clinton. while nonsensical, of course I will let it slide”
For the last time, the country was not safe under Bush because of his predecessor named Clinton. If anything – the reason that we didn’t have too many terrorist attacks under Obama, was because Bush taught the world, that the US is now serious about dealing with terrorism!
Yidd23 -“Every member of society has a part in deciding what’s ethical”
That’s true, but there is a Toldah called medical ethics!
It’s even given in college.
Did you ever go to college?
Ubiq -“Well all the victims very much implies there is such a thing.”
This might be true, but the world never heard it from our former President – Obama! Now why do you think that is?!?
“Assuming you view this “shitah” as an inaccurate portrayal of yidishkeit. How would you feel if when a pesron who had this view was arrested it was labeled “Jewish-tax-evasion” ?”
Now you’re changing the topic. It’s unfortunate that you’re a leftist liberal, but now you sound like an Antisemite!
“There is enough airspace in Iraq without the so-called Muslim Allies!”
A. Whar religion do the majority of IRaqis practice?
B. Last I checked Iraq doesnt border the US”
It would be helpful if you read my posts before you responded to me!
Here it is again:
“We don’t need those allies!
Iraq would have begged us to help them to defend themselves against ISIS.”
“More absurdity and manipulation from you!”
“Nope that was from YOU: “that we safer under Obama than him! It was the fault of his predecessor – Billy Boy” You said we were safe under Oabam thanks to Clinton.”
That’s not what I said – Stop with your manipulation!
I said that the reason we were safer under Obama than Bush, was because Clinton ignored any Islamic threat!!!
Meno -“If he’s a doctor that sounds extremely unethical.”
I’m in the medical field. Who are you to determine what’s considered ethical or not?!?
LB -“Health: We’re dinner twins! I also had salmon last night”
You mean it’s a Shidduch!
“Are you saying that don’t want to eat salmon again?”
That’s right! I’ve always had it, but my stomach can’t handle it anymore.
PBA -“What age to start smoking?”
Start as soon as possible!
The sooner you start, the better it is for me!
Ubiq -“Lol yet more lies.
You havent answered my question
here is a reminder you said :
“Your problem is that your Idol Obama couldn’t say Islam and terrorist together!”
I asked why it was important to say them together?
Now you are saying “”It’s not saying them together”
Ok, so your inital statement was wrong?”
My understanding was not what you meant. Now I understand your question.
Not saying them together – is implying that there’s no such thing as Islamic Terror!
“But brings us back to my question
Yo usaid why do we need allies. I replied “”Lol, look at a map ISIS is based in Iraq, what look whose airspace is needed, look where US bases are.” now that we are past your distraction can you answer my question please?
Without Muslim allies, how do you imagine an attack against ISIS occuring”
There is enough airspace in Iraq without the so-called Muslim Allies!
“Clinton kept us safe under Obama. Ok got it.”
More absurdity and manipulation from you!
Clinton ignored the Islamic threat aga
<<ZAP>>
CTlawyer -“I would not our daughter(s) marry a smoker or former smoker. Who knows what health damage lurks in his body that will surface later.
The fact that the former smoker quit is good, that fact that he ever smoked, with or without parental permission is bad”
I agree. But the main thing to look for in marriage is Middos.
Since people lie all the time, you need Seeatoh D’shmayoh!
Tefilah helps.
LB -“Fatty Fish”
I had salmon last night and Bl’n I’m not eating it again!
