JosephParticipant
Why all the confusion? Shopping613’s friend is certainly following both the spirit and letter of the law I cited above from the Shulchan Aruch and Rambam.
JosephParticipantMen’s job is to go out in the world whereas women’s job is in the home.
JosephParticipantYou’re assuming it was a valid conversion.
JosephParticipantIt’s totally sexist and unfair. If there’s a rabbinic will there’s a rabbinic way. The rabbis must end this travesty and free men from the yoke of sleep deprivation.
JosephParticipantQueen: What point are you conveying by pointing out the age he became a meshumed? He remained a meshumed after entering adulthood as well.
Also, I assume you concede the point about him presiding over a superpower.
JosephParticipantQueen: Britain was the world superpower when Disraeli was Prime Minister. That being said he was a meshumed.
JosephParticipantPerhaps what is needed is affirmative action programs for the less intelligent.
JosephParticipantCommunists are typically atheists, so Bernie is just being a good comrade.
JosephParticipantThey’re dangerous. Dangerous is worse than crazy. Trump is crazy. But even Trump is better than any of the Democratic candidates. Thankfully Trump is unlikely to be nominated thus the nation will be able to elect an outstanding patriot such as Marco Rubio.
JosephParticipantShulchan Aruch EH 73:1: A woman should not go outside much. The beauty of a woman is to stay inside. Kol Kevudah Bas Melech Penima.
Rambam Ishus 13:11: it is degrading for a woman to always be outside and on the streets… The beauty of a woman is to stay inside. Kol Kevudah Bas Melech Penimah.
JosephParticipantMistake? The hospital nearly murdered this girl!
JosephParticipantAnd Tendler wants to change the Halacha to permit harvesting the organs of living people.
JosephParticipantPsak Halacha:
It is muttar to work with people of the Modern Orthodox persuasion.
JosephParticipantMen and women are different. Not equal. Have different jobs in life. Different responsibilities. Different obligations. Different capabilities. Different roles. Different rules. Some things are for men and/or only men and some things are for women and/or only women. Not comparable. Some things men may not do and women may and some things women may not do and men may.

February 22, 2016 8:15 pm at 8:15 pm in reply to: Getting a Shaila into a Shailos U'Tshuvos Sefer #1209747JosephParticipantWhich gedolei poskim are actively publishing ??”? today?
JosephParticipantShe wan’t questioning your ability to determine what is a good seminary, she was merely stating that she couldn’t comment on the specific seminaries you were referring to, and categorized as good, since she doesn’t know which seminaries you’re talking about.
I also think your claim of having more excuse to participating in this forum than she does is unfounded.
JosephParticipantHow was she “chutzpadik” and to whom? Agree or disagree, I don’t see any chutzpa or lack of middos at all.
February 22, 2016 6:16 pm at 6:16 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140197JosephParticipantThe Torah says murderers should be executed. Implement capital punishment. And install safeguards that when uncertain will rather find a defendant innocent than guilty.
February 22, 2016 5:42 pm at 5:42 pm in reply to: Islam Fulfilled G-d's Promise To Yishmael That He Would Become A Great Nation #1138652JosephParticipantSDD: When were any non-Jews, ??? ??????/Arab or otherwise, ever ???? in ????? It isn’t part of the ??? ????? ??? ??.
February 22, 2016 5:40 pm at 5:40 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140195JosephParticipantGuess what, Avi? Our Torah says burglars are penalized monetarily not with a prison sentence. So regardless of what new age burgulary support groups opine, we stick with the Torah HaKedosha. Maybe someone should’ve let the RBS”O know at Har Sinai about the psychological impact of burglary victims so He could’ve included jail time in the Torah instead of mere financial recompense.
February 22, 2016 3:29 pm at 3:29 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140193JosephParticipantRY23: The American prison system is corrupt and immoral. Not only far too many innocents are incarcerated in it, but even those guilty of many crimes do not belong in it but rather ought to face other types of punishments, whether corporal or monetary.
February 22, 2016 2:36 pm at 2:36 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140191JosephParticipantAnd here Avi comes lecturing everyone else that they need to improve their bein adam l’chaveiro when immediately thereafter in the very same thread he created to lecture everyone he starts advocating to have Yidden thrown into gentile prisons with murderous punishments that have zero basis in the Torah and are the polar opposite to everything about Torah-true justice.
February 22, 2016 2:32 pm at 2:32 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140190JosephParticipantLC: Rav Moshe Feinstein and Rav Mordechai Yaakov Breish, two examples of the many that can be cited, both repeated that the issur gamur brought in the Shulchan Aruch against mesira applies in America today, not just Czarist Russia of yesterday.
February 22, 2016 11:56 am at 11:56 am in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140186JosephParticipantThey are being mekayim a Mitzvah for refusing to testify that I envy their cheilik in olam haboah; especially if they do time for that. See the Igros Moshe I earlier quoted. Genuk with your miscitations of S”A which directly prohibits mesira.
JosephParticipantI haven’t seen Yankel around in quite awhile.
JosephParticipantYes.
A few weeks ago the FAA started requiring obtaining a license.
JosephParticipantThey may be lacking but the Democratics (thanks for the correction nfgo) are dangerous. A danger to the country and a danger to the world.
February 22, 2016 1:07 am at 1:07 am in reply to: The Content Of The Post Is Same As Thread Title #1138198JosephParticipantThe Content Of The Post Is Same As Thread Title
February 22, 2016 12:26 am at 12:26 am in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140184JosephParticipantAre you kidding, LC? Google how many convicted murderers are later acquitted. And that is only convictions for murder. And most false convictions are probably never overturned. And, yes, there have been numerous Yidden in America who were moser nefesh not to be a moser and as a result did time in prison. Totally innocent people who overheard other parties in their workplace engage in talk of illegal activities that the person overhearing had nothing to do with but prosecutors subpoened them and judges ordered them to testify. Even when offered immunity they refused in deference to the issur gamur of mesira, as the piskei teshuva I earlier cited state.
JosephParticipantMaybe each seminary, on average, gets many more applications than capacity than the average Yeshiva gets?
February 21, 2016 9:21 pm at 9:21 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140181JosephParticipantSo be a chosid of the other one and shalom al yisroel, and we’ll be the best of friends and even agree with each other on half the things.
JosephParticipantA similar principal about voting for electors applies in the primaries and caucuses. Voters are voting for delegates to nominate a candidate for their party.
JosephParticipantAnother aspect y’all been overlookin’ is that voters are not voting for president. They’re not voting for Cruz for president, for Rubio for president or for Trump for president. None of ’em. Voters are only voting for electors in the electoral college. Those electors we vote for, they and only they, vote for who should be president.
JosephParticipantFind out where the local bris halls are and drop by every morning.
JosephParticipantFlatbusher: When people ask you information about your children for shidduch purposes, do you just extol their virtues without the negatives, thus brainwashing folks about your kids?
February 21, 2016 3:23 pm at 3:23 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140178JosephParticipantLC: For the umpteenth time, for sure how can you blame both of them? At least one of them was shlepped in involuntarily.
JosephParticipantAnything not tzniusdik all year, is not tzniusdik on Purim.
JosephParticipantCTL: Irregardless of Stare Decisis not being applicable, the reasoning given in all the dismissals for the McCain suits is equally applicable here. The plaintiffs have no standing and are uninjured by his being on the ballot.
JosephParticipantCTL: Similar State lawsuits were filled against McCain eight years ago, and were all tossed out of court without a ruling because the plaintiffs lacked standing and were uninjured by his being on the ballot.
JosephParticipantYou’re mixing apples and oranges. The US has a 99 year lease, signed by Cuba, for Guantanamo that the US sends a check annually to Cuba to pay for. (They refuse to cash it on principle.) That keeps Castro out of Guantanamo. But US army bases, there or say in Afghanistan, Iraq or Germany, are not US soil.
JosephParticipantAPY: In your opinion, for those girls that in reality should not, or chose not to, go to seminary, what would be the alternative(s)?
JosephParticipantOverseas army bases are not considered US soil.
February 19, 2016 8:06 pm at 8:06 pm in reply to: How do you address people of the opposite sex? #1138177JosephParticipantYou joke, but that thought actually crossed my mind as I was cooking for Shabbos.
You think of Coffee Room discussions when cooking your meals?
February 19, 2016 7:02 pm at 7:02 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140157JosephParticipantSome people will get another Rav if his Rav tells him he cannot have a TV.
February 19, 2016 6:47 pm at 6:47 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140154JosephParticipantZD: Which part of my answer did you not understand?
Say Hashem tells you to slit your son’s throat, do you do so?
February 19, 2016 6:10 pm at 6:10 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140146JosephParticipantMDG: If the violence is in progress. If it is after the fact and a shaila can be asked then we follow the psak (which may be to report it.)
Sam: You incorrectly told Big Boy he is incorrect, thus I demonstrated that Rav Moshe and others hold what BB said is correct.
JosephParticipantAPY: So from what you’re seeing today, based on your most recent comment here, you are indicating that girls going to seminary domestically are getting more shidduchim and are generally quicker to marry than those girls going to seminary in E”Y?
February 19, 2016 5:37 pm at 5:37 pm in reply to: How about being machmir on ben adam l'chaveiro? #1140139JosephParticipantZD: Absolutely, correct. If my Rav said not to, I would not. I would do what my Rav said to do.
February 19, 2016 4:53 pm at 4:53 pm in reply to: How do you address people of the opposite sex? #1138170JosephParticipantSmall talk is non-work related matters. More water cooler chat.
