Ctlawyer,
So to understand what you’re saying, cities can vote for their municipalities and make laws on who can irregardless to whether it can be done nationally because the constitution doesn’t mention it
I hope I understood it correctly, if so thanks for the American Law lesson
The answer is obvious. The Democratic party needs their votes to stay in power.
They’ll try hard to let them vote legally, but even if that fails, they’ll use them somehow to stuff the ballot boxes.

2cents,
Do you know otherwise
I’ve heard about it happening in Egypt too
2cents,
What I said holds true for other Arab countries too I was just using it as an example
“If Rishonim hold that it’s acceptable for a husband to beat his wife, how dare you write “it’s not only not effective but grossly harmful in our time”? That’s every bit as heretical as saying that Chazal didn’t know how to build cars or nuclear weapons!”
I was just having a discussion with my wife about parenting and I blame it all on feminism and TV
The Mishnah is sotah says “in ikvasa d’meshicha…. Chutzpah will be rampant a son will disgust his father a daughter will stand up to her mother etc” and I said that is was all do to the two things I mentioned
Those two things changed the psyche of people that made it that a father can’t hit his kids or his wife and therefore the family hierarchy is destroyed because women view themselves on equal level to the father and therefore kids devalue their parents
If you look at Arab countries where there is no feminism and tv only shows what they want the kids are way more obedient (cue the kids in Gaza)
Just my humble opinion, I’m sorry if I offended anyone
And to answer gadolhadofi that’s how people changed and it answers how the rishonim can know nuclear physics
Avira,
How dare you compare Lubavitch to notzrim! I don’t want to hear it! It’s all made up connections
Everyone knows that the Rebbe’s second coming will happen and J’s won’t because the Rebbe is Hashem in a body whereas J is only a son……
Totally agree with gadolhadofi
It’s no different than democrats arguing with republicans the other party is wrong and we’re right
Liberalism is a PROGRESSIVE disease
“He probably would think we’re all doing wrong, whether we’re here in the CR, or learning Tanya.“
Or he would be marveling in the fact that we’re here in the CR or learning Tanya as opposed to doing multitudes of assur things on the internet or in the street
You can’t judge yourself as opposed to earlier generations if the internet was around in the times of the gr”a who knows what would’ve been (especially with a stronger yetzer hara)
“Ghd, it doesn’t really matter whether times have changed, I’m not convinced that there was ever an inyan at any time in history for a man to require his wife to be confined to her home, as UJM seems to misinterpret the halacha to say“
Doesn’t the Gemara list three different types of people one of the throwing out the wine with the fly inside and says that type of person locks the door on his wife so that she doesn’t leave and she’s מזנה תחתיו correct me if I’m wrong

Yecheil,
Aaq answered for me (was going to say the same thing in my own words, but I see aaq already did)
Regarding what Keith wrote that “who cares who moshiach is, as long as they keep the Torah knocking them is sinas chinam”
No one said we “Hate chabad” that if a Lubavitcher was drowning we would push him down and not save him, not even that we wouldn’t say “Hi” to them (or throw them out of a party (a la kamtza) what (mostly) everyone is saying is that chabad is fabulous except for the “rebbe is moshiach yechi” stuff which everyone else views as very dangerous and would like to save them from it
I wouldn’t be surprised is in the times of the tzedukkim and early notzrim they did the same
DaMoshe,
You know the history of the Baal Shem Tov?
DaMoshe,
I don’t find it too distressing that they teach a “new form” as long as it’s “another way to serving Hashem” there were 12 shvatim going through their own path in the yam suf, no one said “my path is the only path”
Additionally we say שבעים פנים לתורה
I can so see the early notzrim saying the same thing as cs and sechel
What’s wrong with saying yoshke is part of the trinity or that he’s Hashem’s son (we say bni bechori yisrael, and the passuk says עלמה etc.)
Please finally explain the difference, is it because lubavitchers keep the Torah? What if someone came along like Peter did and says the Rebbe told him in a dream……?
Why don’t you continue it here
(Maybe 29 won’t notice 🤫)
Sidi,
Over here?
The same and different at the same time (if you know what I mean)
Good luck finding your post 😒
Welcome back sidi!
Daasyochid,
We’ll see if commonsaychel is right or wrong if the op follows up, so far she hasnt
No LF,
You didn’t LOSE your silliness, it didn’t go to waste,
You grew from them!
“you’re right, I should’ve clarified. By yetzias mitzrayim, there was only disappearance. My point was that you can’t always take what looks and seems like fact for granted, because before the eigel, Moshe looked like he was being buried by the Malachim in shomayim.”
In this paragraph you’re saying the rebbe is still alive bgashmius
Not even the notzrim believe that their messiah is alive physically
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry
IMO it’s because moros feel it’s the parents responsibility and parents feel it’s the moros responsibility so each side kicks the can to the other and the child suffers
“I guess you missed the heavenly funeral bit. For starters“
Cs I hope you’re not quoting a “new testament” when he redeemed klal yisrael from mitzrayim he “disappeared” he didn’t die, he wasn’t around for a few months between when he went to pharaoh the first time and when he went in front of him by maakos dam
Cs,
Disappearance doesn’t mean die (moshe rabbeinu didn’t die when he “disappeared”
Yet again you sound like a notzri trying to twist Torah and meforshim to fit your beliefs
I wasn’t making light, like qwerty was stating, I was showing how moshichists don’t sound that much different than early notzrim and the only reason I believe that they haven’t followed in that path is that there hasn’t been anyone to distance them from yoddishkeit (no one has told them that the Rebbe came to him in a dream and said to move shabbos to Tuesday)
If this is what Lubavitch really believes, I find that to be really disturbing
“Really, all there is to do is to daven that the first stage of techias hameisim happen ASAP (Tzaddikim rise earlier), with Moshiach with them, and finish off the job he started.“
😂
You along with the notzrim
A second coming……
Chabadshlucha,
I really appreciate your posts it shows how Lubavitch view themselves as “the only way” and on the level of being a cult

I would like to mention that שאול המלך’s humility made him lose the מלכות because he listened to בני ישראל and spared עמלק
The same applies over here
The Rebbe’s humility made him not come out strongly against the meshichists
“Bar kochba definitely wasn’t annointed- there was no Sanhedrin then. But the Rambam calls him king, and candidate for Moshiach so you clearly see what kind of “king” the Rambam was referring to.“
Correction, bar Kochba minted coins during his lifetime so they can be used (like the United States government) whereas the Rebbe has not (not even his “Rebbe dollars” were minted by him)
Boys
What type of city is going to be in Gaza? A Jewish city in Gaza controlled by Muslims that will have to spend millions of dollars protecting each yid?
Man’s what type of Jew would want to live there (besides NK, but I digress)Everyone should realize that square root is on a crusade to get people to eat healthier
Just like crusades eating a certain way has been turned into a religion (ask any vegetarian and they’ll quote the health benefits of not eating meat)
Ctlawyer,
I thought only NYers were snowbirds (in the sense that everyone else aren’t called that)
I guess after twelve years of living in NY I’ve finally become a NYer
Mazel Tov!
Did you ever think you’d become a snowbird?
This thread gave my an interesting question
What should happen to a chassidus that doesn’t have a present rebbe does every chassid decide to join a different chassidus? What if their mehalech doesn’t match with others?
Just wondering 🤔
Welcome to the CR Michael Bloomberg!
If we would have that eventually nothing would be kosher because one can find something “ethically” wrong with anything
“so how will you know when moshiach actually comes????“
Our gedolim will tell us
“i dont even understand why you care about moshiach, what will be then? if you want penimius hatorah, learn it now! you want shibud malchiyus? for what?
(i beleive moshiach is here, the giluy of penimius hatorah – chassidus, yes i still want moshiach bigashmius, main reason is shlaimus torah and mitzvos)“Why can’t we have the same reason for moshiach for shleimus HaTorah?
Can we get subtitles back?
If not, then I hate it
😜
Already found something I don’t like
If click a name won’t bring to their page
“I have 1 simple question for Lubavitch Chassidim. If Moshiach comes today but he isn’t the Rebbe, would you accept him?
I would prefer a straight Yes or No answers.“That’s like asking if a chazir chews its cud would you eat it
If Lubavitch claims “the rebbe IS moshiach” there is no other option and if there is then their belief isn’t ironclad then your “hypothetical scenario” would be incongruent
“Not exactly, but specifically in this context of sometimes one can learn and learn but it doesn’t have the desired effect on him – I think this does apply to both. Maybe on different levels, I’m not sure“
That’s the best non answer answer I have seen recently
Menachem,
So you agree that litvish Torah learning is the same as Lubavitch learning chassidus?
Menachem,
I was trying to hold myself back from responding (I was thinking of making a thread about your comments on the main but decided against it, I’m happy someone else started one and got you to respond
When Lubavitch paints themselves as “holier than thou” because they learn chassidus but then when they are called out for their bad behavior say “well you do it too” it doesn’t show how you are better
Case in point
You probably didn’t go onto the NY Post’s website and say the same thing
According to Lubavitch chassidus is the way so show it and don’t try to deflect
