DY, I agree. Hating someone for dressing differently is real sinas chinom because you will not tell the person hated since it is not an excusable hatred.
See the Rashbam Vaykro 19:14.
What is sinas chinom? It says לא תשנא את אחיך בלבבך, do not keep you hatred bottled up in your heart, הוכח תוכיח את עמיתך go admonish your friend. Explains the Yad Joseph on the Ein Yaakov Yoma 9 that this is an inexcusable hatred. When the hatred is excusable, he will tell the person the reason for his hatred bringing peace , but if it is not, like jealousy, he will not divulge his hatred and he will show a friendly face continuing the hatred.
The MB in O”CH 91:12 emphasizes the importance of wearing a hat for davenen.
Look at the Baal Haturim at the end of Parshas Chayeh Sara.
Rebyidd23, so you believe that the same respect must be given to a child as an elderly person.
Rebyidd23, The reason he did not listen because it was said without respect. – “Put away your phone”
The problem is they are not trained sensitivity, tact. It is not so much the saying but how to say it. That is what derech eretz is. It is the time for Moshiach when the young have no respect for the elders ירהבו הנער בזקן.
To understand if there is kishuf today, we first must understand what it is. See the Sefer Hachinuch on the mitzva 62 of מכשפה לא תחיה.
My yeshiva there were two sedorim, morning and afternoon. The morning was iyun and the afternoon bekiyos.
See the Sefer Archos Tzadikim Shaar Hatorah.
Beis Hilel was sinai, Beis Shamai, Aker Harim, Rava sinai, Abaye, aker harim.

Look at the Alshich Hakodash on the Dor Haflaga, The outside impure chizonim wanted to be come holy by creating unity through building the tower, so Hashem broke up the unity,
The Ben Ish Chai explains that it says ויחן שם ישראל נגד ההר the bnei yisroel rested in unity around the mountain. When you take the letters around הר before and after. Before is ד, ק and after is ו, ש putting it all together we get קדוש holy, indicating that unity brings to sanctity.
The Szombathelyi Rov , Rav Katz, z”l on Tehillim 12;2 כי גמר חסיד, כי פסו אמונים מבני אדם people stop believing because they see themselves that they have arrived and complete when people see them as
chasidim.When it comes to tzedakah the mitzva is not the giving but making sure that the recipient should have. The Melaoh Horaim says that in this case, when the purpose is the mitzva and not the action, his intentions don’t matter as long as the person needing it has.
The Chasam Sofer says in the middle of the above teshuva that the shiluach tzibbur would daven ashkenaz with everyone else including the son of the Hafloh the Machnei Levi and the Chasam Sofer himself except his Rebbies the Hafloh and Rabbi Nason Adler who knew the proper kavonos in the sefard davenen as revealed by the Ari z”l.
The Chasam Sofer O”CH 15, explains that the ashkenaz davenen has the same hidden kavonos as the sefard, but since the Ari z”l was a sefardi, he revealed them for sefard davenen. Since we don’t understand them anyway, it does not make a difference. Does who do, should daven sefard as his rebbies did. The ashkenaz davenen goes back to the destruction of the second Beis Hamikdash.
Tzedaka is a mitzva. To give to Rabbi Meir Baal Hanes in case you lost something is a segula.
Originally they did not forget anything they learned but after the breaking of the luchos they forgot.
The Jerushalmi says that the letters of the luchos flew away at the Aigel and the luchos became heavy so Moshe Rabenu could not carry them and he dropped them.
There are different nuschaos when the yom is said. The sefardim say it before alenu and the ashkenazim after. On shabbos, the safardim say it by shacharis. The ashkenazim some say it before anim zemiros and some say it after,
Am haaretz asur lechol bosor explains the Klei Yokor that what allows us eating meat makes us better than animals is the Torah. One who does not learn Torah is not better than animals and has no right to eat meat.
We can learn things related to proper behavior because derech eretz kodmo latorah.
The lyrics should uplift you not so much the music.
It is a contradiction where his actions overtake his intentions. He wants to keep it, but he is happy to burn it.
An example might be trumah that become impure which is assur behanoah and must be burned, but we can have hanoah when burning it.
Let me explain myself. The isur hanoah is if רוצה בקיומו at the time when he wants the item to exist not at the time when he does not want the item to exist.
I think the isur hannoah is from the having an item not from not having item.
There is a concept to be mekadesh the nigunim. The Kalever took a peasant song and converted it to one of the most famous hungarian jewish songs call szol a kakas mar referring to the geulah.
