Yichus: Jews are much much better and greater than goyim in ALL respects. Period. It’s not even a close call.
September 21, 2012 2:49 pm at 2:49 pm in reply to: NYC Board of Health Votes to Regulate Bris Milah #1096282icedMembermdd: Nursing is known to pass herpes.
Do you propose nursing (and anything else that contains risk) be banned? Or is the proposal only that the ban apply to the stuff G-d told us to do?
September 21, 2012 12:55 pm at 12:55 pm in reply to: NYC Board of Health Votes to Regulate Bris Milah #1096275icedMemberGreat point, ndg. The anti-semites (including the self-hating Jews with or without a yarmulka) have no logical explanation why they wish to forcibly ban MBP all the while allowing other activities with greater risks (such as breastfeeding, as you elequently pointed out) to continue unabated.
September 21, 2012 2:21 am at 2:21 am in reply to: Is it permissible to have a goy in a sukkah? #897696icedMemberSam vs. the Achronim.
Sam, please don’t be embarassed to recognize that Yidden are far better than goyim.
icedMemberI agree with WIY. You petty imbecilec trolls ought to lay off with your idiotic comments. aurora is one of the most genuine posters ever on these boards.
September 20, 2012 10:22 pm at 10:22 pm in reply to: Is it permissible to have a goy in a sukkah? #897692icedMemberSam: You aren’t arguing with WIY. You are arguing with the holy Achronim cited here. You think they didn’t know the counterarguments you present here?
September 20, 2012 10:20 pm at 10:20 pm in reply to: Help! Book Dilemma — Appropriate or not? #906362icedMemberDo Yeshivas like Mir, Torah V’Daas, Chaim Berlin, etc. do these classics in high school nowadays?
September 20, 2012 10:13 pm at 10:13 pm in reply to: Not Eating Chrein Between Rosh Hashana and Hoshana Rabba #897157icedMemberFrummy: Thanks for explaining my question (correctly.) One thing I will add is that one must’nt change their mesorah or family minhagim without an extremely good justificiation. There is even an old proverb of “minhag k’halacha”.
icedMemberTCG: There IS a halachic requirement to eat meat sometimes. (See the discussion here earlier for one current example. Korbon Pesach is another historical and future example.)
icedMemberIt is pure sheker and l”h to assert that the yiddishe shochtim today mistreat the animals.
September 20, 2012 5:29 pm at 5:29 pm in reply to: Why Are Men More Intelligent Than Women? #1138501icedMemberObviously Gottfredson is referring to a comparison between two individuals performing the same job, with the same training background, one with a higher IQ and the other with a lower IQ.
September 20, 2012 2:25 pm at 2:25 pm in reply to: NYC Board of Health Votes to Regulate Bris Milah #1096262icedMemberrob: The Sefardim and Teimanim do MBP. And the Ari was Ashkenazi (as was his father.) His mother was Sefardi.
icedMemberHow do your brothers know your SN here?
September 19, 2012 11:36 pm at 11:36 pm in reply to: Who are the Quiet Girls Supposed To Marry? #897420icedMemberCould it work if a shy guy married a quiet girl?
icedMemberBut it is SO much harder these days….
September 19, 2012 5:56 am at 5:56 am in reply to: NYC Board of Health Votes to Regulate Bris Milah #1096239icedMemberSam: It would defy logic to assert that a straw or squeeze was used. Such an obviously disingenuous claim (if asserted) is a clear attempt to deny the obvious. It makes no sense to have gone from a straw to b’peh.
September 19, 2012 1:43 am at 1:43 am in reply to: NYC Board of Health Votes to Regulate Bris Milah #1096237icedMemberSam: You can prove metzitza is thousands of years old, and it wasn’t done with a sterile tube 2,000 years ago.
September 19, 2012 12:45 am at 12:45 am in reply to: NYC Board of Health Votes to Regulate Bris Milah #1096232icedMemberSam: How do you suppose Chazal performed metzitza? You thought they used a sterile tube?
September 16, 2012 9:25 pm at 9:25 pm in reply to: NYC Board of Health Votes to Regulate Bris Milah #1096228icedMemberSam: Mishna Shabbos 19:2, Gemora Shabbos 133b.
September 16, 2012 5:14 pm at 5:14 pm in reply to: NYC Board of Health Votes to Regulate Bris Milah #1096222icedMemberWe’ve been performing MBP at least since prior to Chazal’s time. So measuring the timeframe in thousands of years is indeed correct.
icedMemberA Jewish judge can’t handle a case that violates arkoyos. Saying that since there are frum judges on the bench so they must somehow have been allowed to violate arkoyos, doesn’t make any sense. How is the prohibition overcome?
September 14, 2012 2:00 pm at 2:00 pm in reply to: Mochel Loch… time to forgive and be forgiven! #1184920icedMemberMochel Loch.
September 9, 2012 4:32 pm at 4:32 pm in reply to: Much of Brooklyn was at the amazing Yehuda Green/Carlebach Slichos 'til 3:30 AM! #896007icedMemberIf Mr. Green brought about such achdus among Orthodox, Conservative, Reform and Reconstructionists Jews, as AZOI.IS indicated, all while entertaining them at the same time, who is to complain?
icedMemberFeif: I don’t know what that is, but he is probably someone different than who Sam is referring to anyways.
icedMemberThank you, aurora.
What is the distance in city driving?
icedMemberI’m sorry that you don’t “approve” of Rav Shlomo Zalman and Rav Elyashev.
icedMember“none of the Poskim read it Kipshuto.”
Aha! There’s the answer in your own words! All the poskim say something and them some yodle comes along the highway and matirs what is assur, “against everyone else” as you so elequently put it?
See, after thinking about it a little bit you figured out the answer yourself! 🙂
icedMemberSam: So I can kill all those girls I see talking ‘n driving?
icedMemberRadar detectors are legal in NY.
icedMembericedMemberNo it isn’t a defense at all.
icedMemberAnd yet you still cannot produce a coherent defense for it.
icedMemberSo you’re the baki, I take it, to find it defendible?
icedMemberThis opinion is indefensible.
icedMemberIt’s not just the past sinning. It’s the active and ongoing sinning of have the device (and its sinful capabilities that the rabbanum in EY made a takana against.) Upholding the takana is legit.
icedMemberPerhaps that is your wife posting?
icedMemberAnd yushke rising from the dead is more believable that Smith?
icedMemberWhat did you get a ticket for?
icedMemberNot every rabbi’s opinion is defensible.
icedMemberThat was written for soldiers involuntarily drafted (i.e. into the Czar’s Army.)
icedMemberTinok Shenishba.
September 5, 2012 2:49 pm at 2:49 pm in reply to: Rav Aharon Leib Shteinman tells Yidden to shun secular education #895775icedMemberYou don’t need a secular education to learn math. It’s right in the Gemora.
icedMemberHaGaon HaRav Dovid Cohen shlit”a has a Sefer called “Yiddish: The Holy Tongue” (written in Yiddish, of course.)
September 4, 2012 10:37 pm at 10:37 pm in reply to: What's the point of participating in an opinion based online forum? #894954icedMemberFor intellectual stimulation.
icedMemberCuriosity: While that may be true for many or even most, for others the benefits may be worthwhile. The decision needs to be made on an individual basis.
icedMemberaurora: You’re mother spoke some Yiddish words even though she was brought up as a non-Jew?
icedMemberThe Cherem was established because the goyim were persecuting the Yidden since the goyim were jealous Yidden could have more than one wife, while the goyim’s religion prevented them from doing so. (Limiting to one wife is inheritantly a Christian value, not a Jewish one.)
Which is also why the Cherem was only accepted by Yidden in Christian lands, while the Sephardim and other non-Ashkenazim (i.e. Teimanim) never accepted the Cherem and continued to be allowed to have multiple wives.
Now that Christian persecution of Jews is B”H mostly a thing of the past, I don’t see why we couldn’t do so again today. (BTW, the Fundamentalist Mormons openly practice polygamy in America today. They even have a tv show about one such family. Mitt Romney is a regular Mormon, and his great grandparents were polygamists.)
icedMemberAccording to the CDC, NYC has the cleanest tap water is the country, and is one of only three places in the U.S. that is exempt from filtering its water, since it is so pure.
icedMemberYou can’t be Mechallel Shabbos to prevent your collegue from being penalized (with 100 pushups or whatever.)
September 3, 2012 3:18 pm at 3:18 pm in reply to: What Food Item Would You Like To See Get A Hecsher? #895459icedMemberTCG: Why did you drop your standards?
