Zehavasdad – Do you any knowledge at all about the costs of production and operation of Shmura matza?
as for Black Friday, the economics of millions and millions of consumers shopping during their holiday season doesn’t quite compare to the rather smaller (obvious understatement) percentage of those who buy Shmura Matza.
No, it’s not because people have different hashkafos. If you want to wear a hat/jacket all the time, that’s fine… God bless and all the more power to you. I have a son that does that. It’s when people feel the need to compel everyone else to conform to their interpretation of halacha that I begin feeling despair.
The Wolf
Wolf- I’m only replying by what you yourself said, that threads like this makes you “almost not want to daven”. That’s an odd thing to say when one is strong in his own convictions,and feels he is doing exactly as G-d expects of him. ( When one is convinced he is doing as he should, it doesn’t leave much room for despair due to different interpretations of halacha )
Like I said, I’m intrigued by your statement.
” I tell you, sometimes threads like this make me just want to not daven at all. 🙁 “
I have to say this intrigues me that people say things such as that. Wolf…by saying this ,you imply that G-d comes in second to “the others”. If you are distancing yourself from your Creator and feel like “not davening at all” because there are other Yidden who have Hashkafos that differ from yours, its not really what “they” are saying, but your own connection that feels lacking.
Every Yid has a connection to G-d, at the end of the day, what others are saying is not that important as that you feel that YOU feel are doing what G-d requires of you.
