    Shlit”a or dead — it is not apikorsus, just stupidity.

    Jothar, re-read the letter. It is clear that it is stupid to believe that the Rebbe is the greatest Gadol among the dead, but it is not apikorsus. The Gemora is clear that Daniel (whose is dead) could be Moshiach.

    Pashute Yid, it is precisely the misunderstanding of Kabbola statements like this, that led some Lubavitchers, Shabsi Tzvi talmidim, and talmidie oso Ish off the derech. This is wherein the problem lies!

    Adding more chumros is wrong — you do not want to drive more people off the derech (completely or partially).

    Apashuteyid, do you think it is kind of questionable for a leader of one group to take on the title of the leader of the whole generation?

    Mod 80, the heterim, you mentioned, are not really strong heterim. They are more of a limud zechus on the makilim. The Gemora should have mentioned that all married men are potur from sleeping in the sukka.

    I am here, your family lives in the US?

    Chacham, other Achronim. Look in MB.

    Pashtus, it is a shaila of “ein podim shevuim yoser al kdei d’meihem” — “we do not redeem kidnapped people for more than a regular price”. I do not know how it would apply here.

    Sam2, it is clear that even the etzem fact of showing up in public overly-mekushetes(wearing a tone of make-up etc.) was a problem. Secondly, how do you see from the Abba Chilkiya ma’ase that his wife was very mekushetes?

    Health, look at my post. Long sheitel is, pashtus, very mekushetes.

    Sam2, look at the beginning of Yeshaya about the Bnos Tzion and the Gemora’s elaboration on it in Ba’ma Ha’Isha in Shabbos. It is a problem for a married woman to appear in public overly mekushetes.

    Sam2, THE POSUK SAYS:” U’mi eikalkel yom bo’o, u’mi ha’omed be’heraoso” (And who will (be able to) bear the day of his coming, and who will stand when he is revealed). I think it is in Malachi.

    The Zohar says there is going to be a makka to kill all those who do not want him to come.

    Sam2, 1) how do you know about the “repression” and “whims”? The NY Times? 2)it is still closer then “do you what you want”.

    Yichusdic, we have to know what’s right and not praise or condone what’s wrong. Dina de’malchusa does not override the Torah.

    Raphael, they are right about enforcing tznius and morality. For the debauched Westerners that’s the worst thing. And do not mix in here the anti-Israel shitos — I was not talking about that. What did you see in Va’eschanan? And again: Torah, not NY Times. You’ve been so influenced, it is hard to talk to you.

    Yichusdic, you are wrong. We should go with the Hashkofas ha’Torah, not of the NY Times. We do not be’etzem beleive in the democracy, “human rights” shitos. Those shitos believe in allowing eberybody to do what they want, the Torah does not. The following might shock you and others: Saudi Arabia and Iran are by far closer to the Torah ideals than the West. Stop being influenced by the Western media.

    Raphael Kaufman, the customs and attitudes of non-Jewish America do not override the gidrei Tznius. Millions of women work in offices, and nothing happens? We know what’s going on by those asher einam-me’Bnei(Bnos) Yisroel heim!

    Therealmgama, on the other hand, there is no issur of calling a woman by her first name, and that reaction was extreme.

    Moderator, what would you expect from officially secular Jews?? Your and others outrage is puzzling! It is not like they were pretending to be frum, and then you caught them doing aveiros.

    The only purpose for which the state was created was to serve as a refuge from antisemitism. They would have been just as frei without the Medina.

    Rabbiofberlin. had there not been a state and HKB”H wanted a destruction, it would have happened even with the state. And had it not been for His miracles since its founding, the Jews of EY could have been destroyed a couple of times over(1948,1967, 1973 etc.).

    Abelle, do you have any answer to my rayos?? Now,even if it is true that such a line was there ( of which I am by no means certain), it was written in some very specific context. If you want to claim that it is to be taken literally, then it is contradicted by numerous ma’amarei Chazal.

    Moderator 80, Zionists wanted to have a state where they thought they could be free from antisemitic persecution.Period. They could have been very frei without creating a state. I do not for a second believe that they were moseir nefesh for the Medina just to take others off the derech.

    Obaminator, you must realize that there are differences between what the Satmar Ruv held and what Chazon Ish held and what Rav Shach held and what the Brisker Rov held. It is very important to be well-informed about the shitos and about the metzios.

    Popa-bar-Abba, on a date one is allowed to look at a girl to see if he likes her as opposed to staring for pleasure. There is no purpose or heter to smell her perfume (pashtus).
