    Reb eliezer,

    So whatever you’ve said about trump applied to you too?

    I’m confused, does במומו פוסל only apply to republicans when it’s against democrats, I don’t remember seeing that בפירוש in the Gemara

    What I heard recently is במומו פוסל that a person that’s a גנב (or any other מום) can easily spot other people like himself

    Now that would mean health is a liar but the ones he called liars are also liars too

    Seriously Gadolhadorah?

    And George Floyd was resisting arrest (and all the other criminals too) for a crime he (they) committed, yet because one of it was at “the capitol” and one is at a mom and pop shop that’s why it’s different?

    “If a kosher restaurant hosted jews for j lectures you’d be ok with that receiving a hechsher?“

    The vaad of the five Towns has restaurants with TVs (that play sports) under their hashgacha (probably other hashgachas too) so that means that they hold of tv?

    “I and most Dems I know want legal immigrants to be admitted to the USA. We don’t care about their country of origin.“

    Regarding Cubans, there’s the “wet foot dry foot” law which doesn’t apply to central and South America but the Democrats want automatic citizenship for them and the Cubans to stay in their country

    “I have repeatedly posted: Bernie Sanders is NOT a Democrat. He is elected as a Socialist and caucuses with the Democrat Party. He attempted to win the Democrat Party nomination to run for President a number of times, and lost. The fact that he temporarily registered as a Democrat in order to get on some primary ballots does not make him a Democrat.“

    Does that mean that Democrats are basically socialists light?

    Why does he caucus with the Democrats? Because their philosophy is closer to his philosophy

    Wouldn’t you say that there’s a fine line between Democrats and socialism?

    “Takmidei Chachamim don’t modify the Torah which will not change with time but as times require can modify creation. “

    Thank you iyk,

    I don’t know how to deal well with praise (I have my own demons to take care of)

    On the topic of R Akiva’s emotional pain he got up from the deaths of his 24,000 talmidim while not questioning Hashem and accepting that כל דעביד רחמנא לטב עביד whether it was physical or emotional

    Everything, and I mean everything, happens for our benefit (Hashem is the טוב ומיטב לכל and absolutely nothing happens outside of His will)

    Iyk,

    I never said (or even implied) that you were on Rav Akiva’s level, what I am saying is that Rav Akiva shows one can still have a close connection to Hashem even with pain because you should always transform the pain into “ how is this going to help me grow”

    That is the point of life, to grow as a person (both spiritually and emotionally) and if Hashem is giving you that pain he’s the one that knows you can grow (and hopefully will) grow from it

    Nothing happens in this world by chance and everything that happens to you happens FOR you (the ל means both to and for)

    IYK,

    I think R Akiva disproves what you’re saying

    He was able to see Hashem’s Goodness through his “pain” (fox leaving the heichal, saying אחד when he’s being killed, כל דעבד רחמנא לטב עביד)

    To everyone (except for IYK)

    אל תדין את האדם עד שתגיע למקומו

    Additionally,

    גדול עבירה לשמה ממצוה שלא לשמה

    It seems like IYK is doing עבירות לשמה what does that mean? To come closer to Hashem as opposed to doing mitzvos because that’s how he was brought up (I’m assuming iyk is a he as opposed to someone else that assumed iyk is a she)

    I have heard in the name of Rav Avraham Twerski that if an addict needs to make a call on shabbos or Yom Tov he’s allowed to because that is פיקוח נפש the same can be applied here

    Iyk,

    I see all the pain you are going through and I’m sorry for that and I’ll try to pray for you to get through it

    There are a few things that I’ve learned so far in life

    1) you can only change yourself

    2) people that can’t or don’t want to see that are spiritually sick

    3) they need your prayers and blessings

    I hope this helps you through your journey of life

    Bilaam viewed Hashem like any other AZ, it was meant to serve himself and the only way he will get something from Hashem is if he gives what Hashem wants (karbanos) which is why he tried 3 times with karbanos

    But the reason one brings karbanos and davens isn’t supposed to be like that it’s supposed to make one close and realize that Hashem doesn’t have to do your will instead you are supposed to accept Hashem’s will and that’s done by “coming close” (הקרבה) to Hashem
