“In addition to A’Z and lack of tznius, this reflects of what the world thinks of the good Pres Biden did.“

Aaq,

Either that or they knew all along Jill is and was rally running the show so they invited the real president and the president elect

“For many years, I suspected that Orthodox Jews place too much emphasis on external appearances,
especially Charedim, and this seems to confirm that suspicion.“

There is a rule that חיצוניות מעורר הפנימיות just like you wouldn’t go to a king like a slob (or even with a tshirt and jeans) you shouldn’t go to Hashem like that

There is a modicum of respect, the whole argument is how much respect is needed

“A shul has no right to ban someone just because they’re not wearing a hat and/or jacket.“

Damoshe,

I remember signs in restaurants saying “no shirt no shoes no service” are you saying shuls are worse than restaurants?

“Just to set the record straight : I’m not a Democrat”

I already proved you wrong

No different than the one who said he’s not pardoning his son and then does

Neville,

I’ve long dismissed Sam as talking nonsense so I don’t pay attention to his posts

I’m sorry I thought you were talking about my post not Sam’s

“So, you agree that he filled his cabinet with swamp creatures last time, yet you unconditionally supported him this time?“

Yes there are more shades than just black and white but I wouldn’t put it past you to understand that

People aren’t 100% good or 100% bad (just because he holds a policy doesn’t make him the worst person in the world, but democrats can’t see that they can only see Trump bad 🧟‍♂️

That being said trump with the swamp creatures were 1000% better than Biden (and eventually Harris) with swamp creatures

Reb Eliezer,

So you’re 4 off

And to your point of “I dont know according to the Rambam if a goy can be Moshiach. He has to follow the Torah to bring the Jews back to it.”

I already quoted him as saying כורש was also called משיח

PM Netanyahu Slams Joe Biden’s Policies, Says President Threatened To Abandon Israel

Basically Reb Eliezer is saying he’s upset Trump isn’t choosing swamp creatures like he did last time

Rebyid,

“I have a strong fear of the absence of dogs and I don’t stop at people’s houses if they don’t have one.“

You’re supposed to give us reasons to have a dog, not to not have a dog

“Can you cite a source please? I know that in mesehcta Berachos 2:4 it tells the story of a child assumed to be Mashiach who was taken by the wind, but not that he died.”

ARSo,

Exactly that Gemara right before that story

The Gemara says if he’s alive his name is Dovid and if he’s from the dead his name is Dovid

I don’t understand the question

If someone makes money and uses it to have self care (vacation, eating out) is he selfish, because he didn’t give it to tzedakah?

Just like there isn’t anything wrong with self care once in a while I don’t see a problem with this either

Just my humble opinion

And btw the Gemara in yerushalmi says that moshiach can come from the dead outright

“Coffee Addict: What are you trying to imply with the shoes thing? It seems random and weird, but what would be theoretically wrong with it? Why is it worse than having a minhag to wear a purple tie on the first Thursday of every month or any other random thing?“

Neville,

I was wondering if Lubavitch puts the rebbe on a higher level than even the Avos Hakedoshim because I’ve never heard of ANYONE taking off their shoes going into מערת המכפלה or קבר רחל and the only reason why they do it is because they view that land specifically as ״אדמת קדש״ because the rebbe is buried there

Btw in shul we have a yerushalmi shiur (brachos) and we learned the Gemara of “Menachem shmei” but over there moshiach was named Menachem and went up to שמים as a baby

I don’t know what you’re talking about, Ferd (and I think I’m proud that I don’t)

Do Lubavitch take off their shoes by מערת המכפלה, קבר רחל, or קבר רשב״י?

If not, why not?

If so, I’ve never seen ANYONE (including Lubavitchers) do it

Aaq,

Wasn’t my עין הרע I heard it on the news (they even said he’s “richer than musk”, which I couldn’t verify so didn’t post)

“> better danven alone with a hat then daven at shul with no hat!!!!!!!!!!!

with such halachik knowledge, you are not allowed to wear a hat.”

My mashgiach zt”l said the same thing and I strive to fulfill it every time I daven

Akuperma,

Who said anything about “Jewish”

OP

Harris (and I voted for Trump)

Either I’m right or I get what I want

Menachem (or any other Lubavitcher),

I’m still waiting for a non qwerty answer

Just decided to pop in to ask this question (not really following the flow anymore, but I see it’s still going)

What’s up with the non leather shoes, and walking out backwards. I’ve been to countless kivrei tzaddikim (רשב״י, רמב״ם, ר מאיר בעל הנס etc) and I don’t think breslovers have that rule (I have friends that went for Rosh Hashanah)

I understand the rule of אדמת קודש but isn’t this going a little TOO far?

“Some will be revealed to be Gentiles.
Some will be revealed to be mamzerim.
Some will be revealed to be chalalim.”

Square root,

How so?

If someone has “goyishe genes” it’s possible that his great grandmother converted halachicly and no one has records from 200 years ago

Not sure how one can tell זנות from a genealogy test either…..

“And you should stop drinking coffee. I thought nobody is reading this thread, only writing.
This thread is the most unhealthy thing for blood pressure, you should stop reading it.“

Aaq,

I actually stopped reading it but wanted to read what you wrote 😅
