Sam, no serious or half serious rabbi today has any qualms with chasidish wine. There are a few quacks but besides being very few and virtually unknown quantities, no one takes them seriously as rabbis.

Even the original cherem was applied to specific subset of people and not to every chosid in the world.

Early chassidim

His taaina was against specific early chassidim doing specific actions he deemed incorrect. It wasn’t against all actions of all chassidim even of that time.

DaMoshe: Your post are factually incorrect on multiple counts.

We’ll remind you tomorrow.

Working adult children shouldn’t be freeloaders.

DaMoshe: The Rambam rules that not only the kingship, but rather every position of authority and all appointees of Israel are inherited to a son and to a son’s son, forever. The Ginas Veradim quotes an anecdote of how the rabbinate in Tzefas was passed on by inheritance to a son who was under bar mitzvah when Rav Shlomo Alkabetz ordered the community to wait for the young boy to come of age, and when the son turned thirteen he took over his father’s position! The hulchan Aruch bases a ruling on the same halachah, this time in connection with the local cantor, who retains the right to bring in his son as an assistant and groom him for taking over his position (Orach Chaim 53:25).

In Yoreh Deah (245:22), the Rema states that somebody who serves as the rabbi of a city cannot be ousted from his standing even if somebody greater than him comes to town. Even his son and his son’s son, forever, take precedence over others. In Orach Chaim 13 the Chasam Sofer writes that he upheld the ruling of Rema that the son inherits his father’s rabbinical position and another Chasam Sofer (Choshen Mishpat 21) also implies this. The Kesav Sofer (the Chasam Sofer’s son, Yoreh Deah 123) confirms that his father implemented the Rema’s ruling in all Hungarian rabbinates that the son inherits the rabbanus. The Mishna Berura (53:83) cites both opinions.

The riot in Baltimore occurred in non-Jewish neighborhoods and had little violent affect on Jews, whereas in Israel the attacks are targeting and affecting Jews.

The son should know on his own to help out paying for household and food expenses.

There is nothing wrong with asking him to pay what he can afford for his upkeep.

The death of a cat or dog is no greater event than the death of a mouse or squirrel.

We do know that the BH”M was on the HH”B, and we know where the HH”B is. The only thing we don’t know is how the BH”M was situated on HH”B.

There. apy explained it for you.

zd: The same way the police know who to identify and arrest who prays on the site, they can identify those same people to prevent them from ascending to the site in the first place.

So you threaten to spank him.

Sure you can. Israel already arrests any Jew on Har HaBayis who prays.

Israel should implement a policy prohibiting any Jew from ascending to the HH”B.

Here it is doubly stupid to cover it up because the wife already knows about the ride request (and already said no to it), rather than something she never heard about that if it came up later he might be able to say he didn’t think it important to mention.

This.

The prime minister is helpless regardless who holds the job. The PM can’t stop the violence. He can limit it, and he already is, but he cannot do more.

How old are you, where do you live, what shul do you daven in, who is your rebbi, what are you looking for.

Sounds like he followed the lead of the Aruch HaShulchan.

No, he sure didn’t. The Aruch Hashulchan (OC 75:8) specifically says that it is forbidden for a woman to go outside without her hair covered. He is only maikel regarding it being considered erva when a man must say a bracha, as long as the man cannot see her hair while he is reciting the blessing. But he decries in very strong words the women who didn’t cover their hair and does not justify it in the slightest.

Aruch Hashulchan 72:7: “Now let us come and cry out regarding the immodesty of our generation, because of our many sins. For many years (some) Jewish women have been neglectful regarding this transgression, and they go with uncovered hair. All which they (the leaders, rabbis) have screamed about this has not helped or accomplished anything. Now the plague has spread, that married women go about with their hair just like unmarried women! Woe to us that such has occurred in our days.”

Herschel Goldwasser essentially justified the crime, not denounced it like the AH”S. Which is why HaGaon HaRav Shlomo Miller shlit”a likened it to Aharon Chariner, whom the Chasam Sofer compared to Acher.

And if they keep Shabbos but not tznius or negiah and go mixed swimming and when vacationing eat in any uncertified vegetable restaurant?

Also, do you always ask what hechsheirim any potential host uses?

Popa, if you saw someone about to jump off a bridge, you wouldn’t be mechallel Shabbos to save him?

There certainly are a lot of them. As DY pointed out, you won’t find them so much in chasidic communities. But you have will find very many in various litvish communities.
