Why is it always assumed that if there is a woman who can’t get a get, her husband is at fault and she is an “agunah ”
Maybe she is actually a moredes and he has a right to divorce her without giving her anything but she won’t accept? Maybe he is a good person and she is a witch and walked out on him?
Why is the automatic assumption that he is a lowlife???????If you put through a blank ballot, does that count as a vote

Thanks for clearing that right up.
Many ראשונים say that’s a conundrum that no human mind can untangle.
But now we are smooth sailing
Thanks 😊Follick2
Thank you.
That was what my post was trying to show. That it is possible.
Glad for you that you have more now. May you always be on the giving sidePerhaps! “they” need to think multiple times before spending on this. But that is their job.
“we ” have no right to demand it of them.
(to put it in more stark terms, do you make sure to give every possible dollar that you can afford, to צדקה ? Or do you also have a discretionary spending budget for your wants that are not needs?
So they are blessed with wealth and therefore their discretionary budget is larger than yours. What’s the issue. It’s Not like they did anything wrong.)

770 no not really we are not enjoined to love purposeful sinners.
As a matter of fact we are supposed to hate themRabbi miller says it’s foolish to think one can love every Jew
but will for a long time will remember that bnei and bnos Torah are shaming the beauty of the Torah.
Because the non bnei and bnos Torah Are truly glorifying the Torah.
And how pray tell?
By lobbing insults at those who learn Torah?
By…………………. I’m not going to go into the laundry list of public mocking of Torah rules and regulation (which In your worldview is the endgame of Torah fealty )
Really????
You are a classic case of מאי אהני לן רבנן
For shame.Classic
By your own admission just now, you will focus on negative ignore positive and denigrate others based on that
Wonderful.
Some of us choose to focus on the beauty of the Torah and realize that humans are fallible and therefore try to forget or look away from others accidental failings , instead of looking down an entire segment of klal yisroel who choose to make Torah the primary ideal and goal in their life.Zg
They tranquilize quests who are too shallow to appreciate the beauty of Torah.
Those who think it’s all about laws. Do don’t…
No we have not “arrived ” when our children lose sight of the fact that Torah is something so much greater than them.
We have lost when the next generation thinks Torah is just a bunch of rules for lifeWhy doesn’t Moshes this
Why doesn’t moshes thatMoshes firstly has a fifty car valet parking lot
Secondly
Why don’t shoppers just return the carts that they take
It’s too hard?
Ask the store to send a worker to walk you to your car and pay an extra two bucks tip.
Stop making excuses for people’s stealingCan’t return an air conditioner to Walmart (even though they technically allow it.)
Can’t have Someone else write your essay (even though the school is aware of it)
But somehow it’s OK to steal shopping wagons from a store that has multiple signs telling you it’s not OK and it’s the stores problem to figure it out?????? “?”My favorite statement here is that Obama “accomplished his goal by passing a health care plan that is too popular to repeal ”
Guess what? That does not equate with being good.
If a president pushed Through a mandate/law/policy that have every citizen receives $100 a week.
It would be horrible policy. It would bankrupt the country but it would be way to popular to abolish.
Simply because there are way more takers than people willing to pay, In this country.
Yes his healthcare is popular. But it’s awful. For that alone he belongs on the list of worst presidentsI was in the Mikva there, and I met a guy with goggles
Avi, sorry I totally lost you there
I know Hebrew
I know English
I know what it means to buy a field for פירות
I never heard that word
And by the way
If that were the only way to translate it, and nobody knows that word, it doesn’t help to say it in a different language That they don’t know. If they speak English and that’s the English for פירות and they don’t know that word, to keep calling it פירות does not make it any more understandable.Regardless.
You are way off topic.
You asked what can be a rational for writing an essay for someone else
I am telling you that since it’s clear that it’s rampant and the school obviously doesn’t care , because they don’t even try to stop it, and the only reason to do it in the first place is because those same people who accept these obviously cheated essays asked for them, so that is tacit approval that you can do it. So what is wrong??Op
Because then there would not be free willAvi k
They are not studying Hebrew
They are being taught other subjects in Hebrew languageAmil
What are you referring to when you say
“I’m exampling “?AvI
You obviously never send a daughter to a Brooklyn high school
.
Telling me the teachers are not in charge is passing the buck
And I never said anything to indicate I thought they are אחראי
For creating the current system
But they Are aware of it.
As I wrote in talking about English speakers being asked to do work in Hebrew.
Not sure where your comment about getting Along in their host countryAs to Walmart
I said there may be plenty of good reasons you are not allowed to do it (my rav told me he holds it’s straight genaivah ) just saying that the argument that by returning it used after a summer downgrades it’s value and therefore you are stealing from Walmart, is factually incorrect.
It may be so that IF ultimately it is given to someone that entity receives less value, but they did not own it at the time you took it so you owe them nothing and Walmart, contrary to the opinions expressed here, does not put most of the returned items back on the shelfAmil you ask a good question. I don’t have a good answer. But that is the reality.
Most girls high schools in Brooklyn teach at least some (and some all) classes exclusively in Hebrew.
Most ninth grade girls do not speak Hebrew.
Yet the tradition continues.
Why?
I do not know. Go ask your dad. (Dr Seuss for the purists here)??
I don’t follow them either 😁
Syag ,
that’s actually great what you did here. Cute too.
Only difference is , here I’m just repeating what I posted multiple times, on this thread, it’s a logical point, that keeps being missed in people’s responses to me.
It’s not saying I’m right I’M RIGHT!!!
I am saying hello!!! This is what I keep saying over and over.
And yes it’s frustration with stupidity of responses.
Still in all your catch was A+ (a+)Avi
The value is lost the moment you open the box and perhaps even the moment you pay for the item.
(yes I know of a specific instance where someone realized after paying that they bought the wrong model, they went straight to return it. The clerk started to open the box. The person said “don’t open it. I just bought it a minute ago here’s my receipt. They said we need to check. They opened it took it all out then threw it into the returns with all the other used / unused /broken items)
So you take nothing from them by using the item. It’s the same to them if you return it sealed as if you return it usedSyag
Can I assume you are putting together a cogent rational response?
Or is your whole opinion just the strength of your conviction?A mamin
I DIDN’T SAY I DO IT I SAID IT CAN BE DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WAS THERE A RECENT GEZAYRAH PASSED TO ASSUR READING COMPREHENSION THAT I MISSED??????
WHY DO SO MANY POSTERS KEEP TELLING ME
“NOBODY DOES THAT ”
YOUR MISSING MEAT OR VEGETABLES
…..
I AM JUST SHOWING IT CAN BE DONE.
DON’T YOU GET IT!????.
IT’S NOT SO COMPLICATEDG h
Walmart dumps returned merchandise regardless of condition.
Once you open the box, and sometimes even if you didn’t,
The item never makes it back onto the shelf. It’s donated or more often thrown out.
So it’s hard to hear an issue based on loss of value to Walmart.
There may be other reasons why it’s forbidden but your going down the wrong pathGlat mart has bags of bones they used to give away for free but now charge either 1 or two dollars. I don’t remember.
Again to all those commenting about lack of variety, or what their recipe Calls for.
I was responding to someone who said it’s not possible to do it. I’m showing that it is possible. When someone has no money they don’t eat chicken during the week. They make soup with less vegetables than “your recipe ” calls for.I said I spend much more I’m just saying it’s possible even kosher and In Brooklyn to feed a family of EIGHT people including adults where the food is always fresh and everyone is full and it’s less than 200$ a week.
No it doesn’t include sushi
Or many other delectable things that many of us are b “h able to indulge inCoffee addict and frum guy laid claim to 150-165 weekly
Zahavasdad said he can’t believe it
So I was trying to show it can be done
That’s allReb yid 613
Your attacking the wrong person. Kind of makes you look foolish and not so klug yourself there.
I have nothing to do with the returning air conditioners part of this whole discussion
So feel free to keep attacking but if you want to sound smart try to keep your comment relevant.Neither
Why would you think thatSyag
I hear your indignation loud and clear
Unfortunately indignation Is not a rational position. It just means you are passionate that you are correct.
That’s beautiful.
But it’s not going to convince me. I’m fact it’s not even giving me anything to think about to see if maybe In fact I am incorrect.
It’s more like a signal that it’s a difficult position to defend
In the words of Ronald Reagan
“weak point – scream “There is no בעל תשחית In a hypothetical situation
First are you feeding a family of eight with six children or a family of 6 with 4 children? You post says both .
“Family of six children”
“Why is $150 so hard to be true for a family of four children?”
um…. my numbers work for a family of 6 children so for sure they can work for a family with 4 children
(if you cant figure that out, then just cook for six and throw out the extra 2 portions)
didn’t think question was including non food
it wasn’t posed as total household budgetNo breakfast cereals allowed? correct
Sugar, salt, spices? minimal daily
Cream cheese sandwiches and scrambled eggs for breakfast?no
scrambled eggs for breakfast
Cream cheese sandwiches for lunch
2 family packs of chicken bottoms yields 12 quarters – if it’s a family of six that’s two dinners. Last I looked there were 6 dinners in a week. Are you only serving pasta the other 4 nights with no protein (ie fish or meat?)
no. american cheese in the pasta. its called mac and cheese
quite tasty really
1 pack of hot dogs (8 pack or 16 pack?)i think for 10$ you can get a 16 packwhen you say children do you mean toddlers, under 10 or teens? Do you know how much teen boys eat? a mix of ages like a regular family
yes. some eat very little(1 can for a family of 6?) yes plus eggs and dips . not everyone likes/eats tuna
nope. its a half a pound of cheap meat
pretty substantive in a 5 quart pot of cholentany more questions your honor?
Excl
Why on earth not?
You can buy a pack of “cholent meat ” for ten dollars. Use half. Remember we are seeing if it’s possible
You can also put in a bag of beef bones, available for two dollars to give more flavor
Soup veg. ????
One onion one carrot a zucchini and a parsnip cost more that $3??
Are you shopping in “the orchard ” ???Interjection
I didn’t forget
I personally spend way more than that

What type of apples?Avi
Not sure what your whole post equals
If the student is not capable they will flunk
If the teacher round up (which many do) they will pass
If everyone is cheating their way through, then it’s a broken system and it’s stupid to keep it going that way. If a non participatory student who can’t answer a question in class is submitting a grade essays, and the teacher lets that through, it’s time for a new teacher.
I thought you were asking about entrance exam essaysRealize, it’s not like you have a possession, that if I take it I’m stealing. Here it’s arbitrary. If a school /teacher decides they want you to submit an essay, and they give it in a way that easily allows cheating, and they know it’s happening, and they accept it, then it’s not cheating!! They are in charge of creating the rules. If they allow it then it’s OK
Syag
That’s not really a response to what I said, but I’ll ask you this
When the school gives the students an assignment to be done in a language they neither speak nor understand, what do they really think is going on behind the scenes??
Or is your opinion that the teachers and principals of our children’s schools are so stupid that they never realized what I am saying?
Again
When children too young to type are submitting typewritten assignments (sometimes mandated by the school) what do the teachers who are giving these children high marks for those assignments think took place.
Don’t shoot the messenger.
I try to teach my children what is really important and correct.
