“Many yeshivish people, meaning the ones with money, attend these and other such programs, but the Gedolim generally don’t make edicts that the Machers won’t accept.“

What makes someone yeshivish?

I don’t find “frum Baal habatim” yeshivish

I don’t think yeshivish people wear colored shirts
I don’t think yeshivish people daven without a hat and jacket
I don’t think yeshivish people make it a point to earn as much money as possible
(Getting to this my wife told me of someone that’s frum that says you have to make a sale even on chol hamoed in order to grow your business, that isn’t a yeshivish hashkafah)

There is a big difference between frum Baal habas and yeshivish

“I’m reasonably certain that there’s no Posuk in the Torah stating, “Thou shalt not watch TV.”“

There’s no pasuk that says you can’t go mixed swimming either

There are rabbanim that have assured internet, what makes it different than tv where they they would say that tv is muttar but internet is assur?

“Prove your contention that watching TV is equivalent to eating a cheeseburger.“

לא תביא טואבה בתוך ביתך

והיו מחניך קדוש

There have been people throughout the generations who have been rich and donated money to numerous causes and gedolim have never called them out

This didn’t start in Lakewood

I don’t see a problem

“Dear Qwerty,

“The Gemara explicitly said that Nevuah ended during the 2nd Temple period and will not be restored until Moshiach comes.”

There is no such Gemara.“

I’m not trying to defend qwerty but there is a Mishnah to that (can’t remember where, something about זהירות, פרישות, רוח הקדש, אליהו הנביא something of that sort

I asked the Lubavitchers on this site to which none of them answered the question

I would really like to know their opinion

Logician,

Would you say the same about sleeping beauty and the like

I was waiting for someone to make a fat joke

Ctlawyer,

What’s front with Hutchinson (from a democrat standpoint)?

I’m wondering if the reason I’m not here is because I already vanquished all the trolls or because I passed on

I’ve heard it numerous times

Also ברשות הרב or ברשות הבעל הבית

All dreams go after its interpretations

Your dream means that you will live after moshiach comes and will listen to music happily

“CA: Grammar police here. You probably meant room and board. Food is board.“

So a boarder is someone that eats your food? I thought he/she is a boarder because they live in your house

And a boarding school is where they sleep there

Little froggie,

“It’s because someone wrote that he wants the last thread.”

I guessed as much

“i think every chabadsker loves rav shach“

Well you’re mistaken

I’m sorry

I know a Lubavitcher that put up his middle finger when Rav shach’s name was mentioned

If you loved misnagdim you wouldn’t call them snags it’s like a person that’s calls Jews the k word and says he loves all jews

Food and board for starters

Ctlawyer,

I have had the same experience with chabad at my city of birth

Orthodoxrabbi,

“And yet he also says bar kochba was a melech and rabbi Akiva thought he was moshiach. How strange! The Rambam pashut says a king and ur gonna tell me bar kochba was a king without fitting how the Rambam says a king is established?!”

He minted his own currency, something which kings do

Menachem

The answer is, is that chabad is a great sect in yiddishkeit and it would be even better if it cut out “the rebbe is moshiach” naarishkeitin so the frum non chabadniks that you meet are trying to make chabad (and in essence the whole religion) better

Avirah,

Sinas chinam is looking how each of us is different and accentuating it

So Lubavitchers believe their rebbe is moshiach and can come from the dead, so what? It isn’t an aveirah (maybe a shtus) and they won’t listen to you and you won’t listen to them

You’ll think they’re crazy and they’ll think you’re crazy

I don’t see a point to multiple “rebbe being moshiach” threads and why now?

As I’ve stated in another thread

I have two goldfish
