Baruch Hashem. We should continue as strong.
Feif Un:
1. Rav Dovid does not eat CS.
2. Even if Rav Dovid did, you might have a kasha for R. Dovid. It does not change the fact that Rav Moshe wrote in his teshuva that a baal nefesh does not eat CS.
WIY:
Instead of reading the summary by whoever wrote that, crack open the sources like the Igros Moshe cited. It is not geneiva.
2 b thankful:
Fidelity.
Wrong aries2756. Dina Dmalchusa does not override Torah law, when halacha specifies how it is done.
Golden Flow, by far, remains the freshest CY milk (imho).
WIY:
Check the sources you cited from Halachically Speaking.
The issue is Hasagas Ge’vul (and perhaps Ze nehene ve’ze chaser), but NOT geneiva. Again, check the sources in the footnotes of what you yourself cited.
No mainstream rabbi allows abortion for a fetus with a medical condition. (With the very daas yochid exception of Rav Eliezer Waldenberg zt’l who allowed 1st trimester on tay sachs.)
oomis1105:
A minor, under halacha, is someone under Bar/Bas Mitzvah. So anyone 13 or older is an adult. Therefore that person IS responsible. (Although his parents are not.)
WIY:
It is not stealing under halacha. (There may be other halachic concerns, however.)
The guy should be, at max, 10 years older than her.
pashca:
You need a few lessons to help you brush up on your dan lkaf zchus skills.
Stop believing all the sheker out there.
pascha:
Stop believing the sheker in the media about frumme Yidden. It is 99.9+% false. 99.999% of what frumme yidden do are kidushei Hashem.
We frumme Yidden make far far more Kiddushei Hashem’s than Chillul Hashem’s.
And it does matter, a great deal in fact, whether one of our brothers were involved in a tragedy.
YM: Was the situation as simply as you put it, or was there more to it?
Wolf – you didn’t respond to my earlier comment.
A few additional points:
Nothing the OP said indicates any potential copying (and it should be noted he said he never yet has copied) is not of “free source” music.
Additionally, under U.S. copyright law, copying copyrighted material for personal non-commercial usage falls under the “fair use” doctrine and is legal. Even if it is one friend copying for another, without any mass distribution involved.
Wolf:
It possibly may not pass the yashrus test and is wrong, but if it is not stealing don’t call it stealing.
If he is leading you astray, you should break off communications with him ASAP.
That’s the first time I heard a Wolf being lactose intolerant.
Then you don’t know the inyan of going to the mikva. By Bar Mitzva — at latest — boys go to the mikva at least every Erev Shabbos, if not daily.
Statistics show that guys who get married at eighteen have more years of a happy marriage on average.
1. Muttar, but not obligatory. Recommended though.
2. He must never have had an impermissible relationship, in order to be allowed to inflict the punishment. And it must be done on the spot, when he witnessed the act. (No prior warning is necessary in such an instance.)
Chasidishe bochorim get married at 17 or 18 and are doing very well, thank you. Perhaps a lesson or two can be picked up from their very successful mehalech.
I strongly suggest to all those who insist on boys waiting, make sure your sons do not get married prior to Age 40, to insure their maturity level.
To anyone incorrectly thinking older = maturity = better: Perhaps you should wait till the guy is 40. That ought to be the most ideal in your opinion.
The Torah says younger to marry is better; and real life experiance bears out the Torah’s viewpoint of when to get married.
tunabeigel123 is correct.
Additionally, the 20 year old is closer to the ideal age of marriage of the Torah of 18.
And, as you said, the are not anymore taught about finances, etc. whether they are 23 or or 20. These things come naturally for a guy.
twisted: Are you so afraid of the truth that a factual refutation of Eim Habanim gets you all upended? You had a chance to protest with a response indicating what you felt was mistaken. The fact that you and others did not, clearly indicated you have no response to the factual assertions, other than crying not nice.
(Thank you mods for removing the drivel a second time, by the same poster, from this thread.)
Roth and Traditional both grow at the same rate, and you end up with the same amount at the end. (Assuming similar starting.)
Gedolei Yisroel, whom these frum papers take general direction from, insisted on no female pictures. That is why they instated that policy. If you don’t like it, take it up with Gedolei Yisroel shlita, not their messengers.
WIY:
Real farhers. The girls father will test the bochor on a random Gemorah inside. The bochor better know his stuff well.
I dont think farhering really goes on anymore.
Huh? Fahering very much goes on. Don’t know what circles you’re drifting in, but girls fathers very much faher the boys before they can go out with their daughter.
LMA – The wording of the mi sheberach does give legitimacy to the zionist institutions. Hence it cannot be recited. Your point about the zionist entity existing regardless whether we recite it or not is meaningless. Would you therefore recite a misheberach for the Cuban Communists since you feel whether reciting it or not is without effect?
The State has caused a lack of security by inciting the Arabs to violence against us. And the State does not provide as much financial assistance to us, as we (Torah Jewry) provide financial assistance to the State in the form of taxes, fees, and all sorts of regulatory stuff.
And reciting the mi sheberach will do nothing towards feelings of the frei. The religious zionists already say it; the Shiuni-types hate us nonetheless. They will not be appeased “only” until the last Neteurei Karta Yid says the mi sheberach.
StateSen: Huh? Are you in the middle of a conversation with someone?
Who is this Miller?
Top 5 WHAT?
“abroad”?
Does anyone know the reason the Eretz Yisroel and American Yated’s split? Who controls the European edition?

Squeak, I always thought you were a young girl.
POSTED 5 MINUTES AGO #
Hmm. I’m pretty sure squeak’s an old lady.
aries: Helpful is correct. Check out the psak. Rav Elyashev never said their a rodef.
Sometimes I think I may know who you are actually, but I’m not sure…
That sounds like a wish…
I think the issue with translating is discussed in
Igros Moshe Y”D vol. III s.91
Igros Moshe Y”D vol. IV s.38(1)
dd,
Rav Moshe specifically conditioned his kula on, quote, “when there is no other place available”. And that is for anyone, even if he thinks he has no improper motives.
Additionally, he did not characterize, as you did, that a man having lustful thoughts is a “psychological problem”. If that were the case most men in the world would be needing constant psychotherapy. That is a normal male thing, not a “psychological problem”. Rav Moshe, in he aforementioned teshuva tells how to deal with it.
YTVYTTCBBRKLYN –
Why did you go to 3 different Yeshivos?
yechezkel89, I refuted points in that sefer point-by-point, including page number citations. It is not based on halacha but rather on emotion. See my earlier detailed comment. Read Sefer Vayoel Moshe for a fuller picture.
simcha613, abortion and toeiva is also here. That doesn’t mean we must accept that and not protest.
Akiva, are you making a taaina against Rav Ahron Kotler, Rav Moshe, etc. etc. etc.?
AinOhdMilvado:
The Sefer Aim HaBanim Semecha doesn’t contain anything new. It’s a collection of all the old Zionist arguments that have long been disproven. The truth is, his position stood no chance to begin with, because even though Rav Teichtel was a Talmid Chacham, he was opposing the collective Torah knowledge of the greatest Torah giants, including but not limited to Rav Chaim Brisker, Rav Samson Raphael Hirsh, The Chofetz Chaim, the Rogachover Gaon, The Lubavitcher Rebbe (Rashab), the Belzer Rebbe (R. Yisachar Dov), the Chazon Ish, the Brisker Rav, Rav Chaim Ozer Grodzensky, all who were opposed to Zionism and the creation of a State. So he was really quite outgunned from the start. The most extensive work on this topic is of course the Satmar Rav’s Vayoel Moshe, which disproves just about every Zionist “proof” ever conceived.
Example: On page 147 he addresses a powerful statement in Ahavas Yonason by R. Yonason Eyebuschitz ZT”L that it is absolutely prohibited for Jews to take over Eretz Yisroel before Moshiach, even if all the nations want them to, which is kind of a problem for a religious Zionist like Rabbi Teichtel. This is his response: “You should understand that the words of Rav Yonason only apply when there is no sign from heaven that we should all abandon the lands of Chutz Laaretz, meaning, when Jews can live peacefully outside of Eretz Yisroel … but not nowadays, when the words of the prophet came true, [that Jews will be hunted down by goyim]. So when the nations give us permission to return to our land, can there be any doubt that it is the will of Hashem that we return to Eretz Yisroel? I am certain, that if Rav Yonason Eyebushitz was living with us today and saw the terrible golus that we endure, he himself would say to us: ‘Brother Jews! The time has come for you to go to Eretz Yisroel, for this is the will of Hashem, for it is not coincidence what has happened to us in Golus, but rather it is the finger of G-d pointing to us to rise from golus…”
And it gets much, much, worse. This attitude that “everyone has to interpret the world the way I do” often passes the line into the realm of the absurd. On page 98 he deals with the Minchas Elozor, who was a vehement opponent of Zionism. He was vehemently critical in general, actually, when it came to protecting the Torah. And nobody was beyond his scrutiny. Here are some quotes:
