Hmm, where have we heard that before? Ah, yes, Siddur Sim Shalom.
lab (Joseph)MemberSo to clarify, it would be fair to say that you support someone asking out a girl he sees in public, with the only major qualification that he feels there’s a chance of it working out?
lab (Joseph)MemberYet you’re only adding that major qualification when challenged. Otherwise your comments could easily be read, and would easily be understood as originally written, to be supporting a boy approaching a girl and asking her out. Even if the alternative is not snapping an unauthorized photograph.
lab (Joseph)Member“Approaching is fine.”
You agreed that suggestion was only a weak b’dieved.
lab (Joseph)MemberBut you’d agree even your suggestion is a weak b’dieved that shouldn’t be done other than to avoid the worse possibility you described, correct?
lab (Joseph)MemberT613: Was it an Orthodox Jewish person that took that photo? Also, I don’t understand why you would suggest it okay to approach an opposite gender on the subway to ask out.
lab (Joseph)Memberbygirl93: Would you have any problem with guys surreptitiously taking pictures of you and other girls at weddings or on the street? If you happened to notice one of them doing it, would you be cool with that?

If a parent regularly attempts to give drugs and alcohol during visitation to his children, such a parent would rightly be denied visitation. Obviously this is a rare situation but one that can happen.
If a spouse has no obligation to give/accept a Get, and one isn’t halachicly obligated to give/accept a Get simply because the other demands or wants it, then there can be no taaina against him/her for exercising their halachic and moral right to remain married should they so choose.
November 21, 2013 11:38 pm at 11:38 pm in reply to: Withholding a get vs. Withholding children #988321lab (Joseph)MemberThe little I know is correct.
There’s no halachic requirement to give a get unless beis din orders one to be given. In the absence of such an order there is no basis to demand or attempt to force one to be give. And a beis din can only order one be given if the halachic criteria that a get is mandatory has been met. In the absence of that halachic threshold being met, even beis din cannot order one be given.
akuperma, if a court withheld a civil divorce, that would not help or hurt one spouse more than the other. So taking that approach accomplishes little as it has the same effect on both parties.

And they all say more or less the same thing. So look at any one of them. The posuk in Tanach is probably the quickest one to lookup.
November 20, 2013 7:46 pm at 7:46 pm in reply to: How to deal with rowdy, chutzpadik and/or mean kids #988147lab (Joseph)MemberSee Mishle 13:24, Makkos 8a, Rambam Talmud Torah 2:2 and S”A Y.D. 245:10 for what to do.
