I think the problem is because people have lavish simchas but give very little tzedakah, but if they do both it’s totally different imo
“If a neighbor is away on vacation and for some reason hasn’t arranged for someone to shovel, that doesn’t mean the sidewalk should be left a mess. It takes only a few minutes to shovel at least a basic path, its not that hard.“
And anyone who does so has the right to charge top dollar for their work and the homeowner has to pay for it
Just because you’re away and didnt do your part in hiring someone doesn’t make you absolved from paying for it
Common,
Who says it’s the mir? Maybe Ner Yisrael? Or Skokie? Or kby?
The nurses are murderers even without the strike
טובות שבנורסיס לגיהנם
I know first hand
Do they have to be different fractions?
In other words can x=y?
This discussion is reminding me about the story with the Rav in the fancy carriage that the rich person didn’t want to give money to and was told that it depends on what your כוונה is, so the standard Israeli isnt thinking of supporting Torah so won’t get the זכות
Yes you can choose songs
“Hareidim, even if they are truly learning Torah all day, should be required to undergo a short basic training period so they can defend their own communities if necessary.”
100% and they don’t have to go to the army app they need is a firearm course
Akuperma,
Where did you get your story from?
Ujm,
Where did you get yours from?
The only way we can really know what happened is by body cam footage
It’s only your feelings that are making you feel used, if you view it as your doing them a Chesed because they need the compliment to feel better about themselves you would feel better
“I get up from Shabbos snd check the news and find out he had invaded Venezuela, abducted the president and First Lady“
Ex-ctl,
Interesting, it isnt the first time it has happened to a dictator by a president, were you just as upset then? Additionally, Biden offered $25 million for his arrest, so basically you wanted it done, just by someone else?
“We can live in peace together it is possible“
Tell that to kibbutz beeri and all those other places that got massacred on October 7, they believed like you that “we can coexist” with the Palestinians
The reason being is because they are led to believe that Israel is “the little Satan” therefore coexistence is impossible
“Yes,
I used to be a mitnagid and now and Chassid tolerant.
Thank you Joseph“Still waiting for you to be a pro-trumper

“Did he? From memory, R Moshe suggested someone to follow his own Rav on a controversial topic (eruv?) rather than him. He also declined to respond to a sefer that attacked his positions – so that not to make the author lose parnosah.“
Im not following, R Moshe says it’s muktzeh square root said “ Therefore, even if it were 100% permitted according to Halachah,
you still would never be permitted to do it by Rabbis.The best answer that you could possibly hope for from Rabbis is:
“It is really permitted, but don’t tell anyone I said that,
because it might ruin the shidduch chances
of my children or grandchildren.”When it comes to Shabbos, Kashrus and Tznius,
no amount of chumrahs is ever too much for the Chareidi Rabbis
because no amount of chumrahs is ever enough for the Chareidi Rabbis.So far as they are concerned, the more chumrahs, the better.”
Aaq,
“ I don’t think this applies to every rabbi, I am pretty sure Rav Moshe was not holding by himself as such an authority, for example.“
Yet square root would say it about R Moshe because he’s “overly machmir” in this regard
Baalhabooze,
It’s a machlokes R elyashiv ztl (and others) actually held it isnt muktzeh
“When it comes to Shabbos, Kashrus and Tznius,
no amount of chumrahs is ever too much for the Chareidi Rabbis
because no amount of chumrahs is ever enough for the Chareidi Rabbis.So far as they are concerned, the more chumrahs, the better.
And you are NEVER allowed to disagree with them,
no matter how good your logic is.
Their word is final, even when they
prohibit things that are really permitted.”This line comes from שנאה sorry to break it to you
Wow square root!
So much hate at “chareidi Rabbis” im wondering if you’re still not listening to music 🙄
My Rav said no, it’s בונה and R Moshe among others holds snow is מוקצה
Cs, how do you know why he “lives” in England
I used to “live” wherever my yeshiva was and decided to vote over there
Ian the vanquisher of trolls over here, but I can defend this one
Has anyone over here heard of absentee voting? A lot of bachurim that are learning in Israel used it to vote for Cuomo, so this guy can use it to vote for Mamdani
“Given these cognitive issues, my suggestion would be to choose an authority – and learn and follow him in everything. If you are following R Elchonon, please teach of more of R Elchonon Torah here, not just on one political issue; find yourself a rav who is a student of R Elchonon, follow him in all your hashkofos – including how you interact with people, ask him shailos – and let us know his answers. Same for Satmar.“
Aaq,
Im happy YOU finally agree on something that the anti draft agree on
The bachurim who are being put in jail are only following their Rosh Hayeshiva and while they’re in Beis Medrash it seems like they follow him on all matters of Halacha so it’s perfectly upright for them to “draft dodge”
That is probably true but the anti Zionists would probably say thats only because of Zionism
If the Zionists didn’t conquer Israel and didn’t try to present themselves as Jews they wouldn’t be killing Jews
I knew the question sounded familiar
“War isn’t a video game.“
I take it you’ve never played the non video game (I thought you were older than that!
Joe,
It’s not a good teretz, some of the names on your list tried immigrating to ארץ ישראל
Obviously the mitzvah isnt a מצוה חייבת rather one gets שכר if he does
To parrot ujm,
I take it you haven’t played battleship
😢 well it’s good you’re still around (and lurking 🙃)
Welcome back sidi!
BH we live in plentiful times

“ Coffee Addict,
“Happy New Year” was complaining about NOT having daylight savings time during the winter, which results in “loosing” an hour of Friday afternoon.”
I think the complaint is more the switching between on and off DST so people don’t get used to one way or the other
That was what changed from 150 years ago
Shimon Katz,
We didn’t have daylight savings time 150 years ago
It’s the loss of the hour that messes people up
Happy new year,
I haven’t seen it yet but if I think it’s saying the benefits of keeping DST all year so people can start Shabbos an hour later and thereby sacrificing davening after netz
I agree 100%
Look at Gemara Sotah first perek (around daf ches) about sending bachurim to the army for מלחמת מצוה
