“First of all, why’s it immature, second of all, let’s say it is. You can’t humor the immature?”
“I understand not encouraging immaturity. That’s not the issue here.”
Contradiction?
The Need for [pretending there is] Perfection is because once it’s in the open it becomes expected, normal, etc.
“why are people always running to say oh its just for attention?”
You’re asking how people who always know everything always know everything? Because they know everything, that’s why.“You could make aliyah”
That is their excuse. So Jews have no birthright to enter the country, but rather to become citizens of the country.RE animosity.
I find in Israel there is animosity toward “frum Anglos,” but [non – frum] Israelis in Chutz Laaretz don’t harbor such animosity towards the frum there.
Which makes sense.Troll.
@AAQ
What did R’ Berel Wein do with the last person?why does a man have a woman friend?
In “The Longest Pesach” (Shmuel Kunda), the Noda Biyehuda gave the non-Jewish baker’s non-Jewish stepson money so he wouldn’t be beaten.
@huju
1 up til now many states have followed the guidance and are nowhere ahead in the race.
2 there is no race. a race has a finish line; covid ain’t goin anywhere. zero cases is an impossibility.
3 the cdc doesn’t know anything.
4 those defying the cdc are just futuristic individuals; they’re adhering to the cdc’s advice when they next flip the coin.I tried replying to gh on the news page but it didn’t go thru. over here he added a crucial point, in that the law is they have to follow protocol. Ben gvir said there’s no such law. I haven’t the foggiest clue who’s right but it is a legal question. even if he violated the law there’s a humongous difference between his actions and tishler’s. if he didn’t violate the law he did nothing wrong. and it speaks volumes of someone so arrogant that not being called with an honorific makes them call for security to oust him.
he only called Tibi a terrorist after, and there’s still no comparison to tishler.
smart people caught on right away that she’s trolling. gh has just begun to entertain the prospect now after he decided the subject is exhausted (despite an open question still unanswered.)
some posters understand the justification of removing the hechsher is that in some level Ben & Jerry is unkosher. but it’s really far simpler. the hashgacha is not conducting business with anti Israels. the end.
there are no pros. my guess is it will crash at some point but that’s probably just wishful thinking.
1 @rebe how pale?
2 in my experience the biggest impediments to moving to e”y isn’t so much the affluence but other comforts i.e. leaving family, set community, structure etc. and, of course, because Americans feel out of place there.you’re right but ice cream and politics also don’t mix so it’s fighting fire w fire.
what came out of Georgia and Az over the past few days?
well, that’s pretty funny.
why isn’t everyone laughing?once when I was traveling, someone shared the following joke (read off a laffy taffy):
q: what flower is on your face?
a: tulips.and because he’s Hungarian.
@goldilocks
you got the drill wrong. there are supposed to be 3 sets of clothes. before taking off the first set u say “this one’s too rough.” before taking off the second you say “this one’s too soft.” and when u put on the third say “this one’s just right.”@commonsaychel can we limit chief rabbi talk to this thread?
once I’m at it, daasyachid for cr.
reb Eliezer could (does) have the position (along with aaq) of changing the subject.pinchik’s ribono shel olam after sefira.
omg gh and rational! you guys are a riot!
chumra of not keeping it dry…it’s apikorsus…
hahahahahaha! ROTFL!!!!having said that, and trying to compose myself enough to type, Idk where u live, rational but it actually does rain sometimes in Israel on sukos.
and there’s another poster on this site–I won’t mention his name–and one of his parents’ first language was Spanish and he became a Zionist.
but good for you for making sure both my parents’ 1st language was yiddish. i actually know someone whose mother’s first language was polish and I definitely wouldn’t want to marry him.
just a piece of advice: if you want your daughter to get married, don’t ask anyone to sign on terms and conditions.
your loss.
sounds like she’s perfect for me.
i am extremely good looking and have a great personality. i can do a basho tonight. does that work for her?@avik I don’t believe that story (that her parents sat shiva) for a second.
no turning without a signal.
as I’ve mentioned like a couple hundred times already, the question of reparations comes after the assumption slavery is wrong. if you think slavery isn’t wrong, then call the emancipation proclamation woke-don’t start talking about reparations which is the next step.
@health can u post some substance? which of my assertions is incorrect? that ethics are based on an underlying philosophy? that a core philosophy can’t evolve over time? these are very simple questions that takes shorter to answer than to send me to college. (how conservative of you.)I never studied ethics, nor do I plan on it. I hear tell ethics courses in college glorify perversion, a position that I’m certain a believing Christian like you doesn’t agree with. what I have posted is called logic. something you’re not very familiar with and something that, unfortunately, can’t be taught.
hardly free.
@Iyk
if the dress code prevented frum Jews from starting Facebook then you just gave the best explanation for the practice.let’s try this a different way.
ethics, principles, and morals are based on underlying philosophies. they’re not arbitrary statements assumed at whim.
if it’s to be assumed slavery is wrong, there has to be an underlying philosophy. what underlying philosophy is there that will change based on the generation?*the underlying philosophy as I see it is the inherent value of humans which transcends a monetary, propertial status. additionally, the equalness of people eliminates a possibility of one human arresting ownership over another.
use this philosophy or not, so long as u explain what changed throughout the generations.
and what would be the rational of such a thing?
it’s the 3 weeks
@coffee everything could be discussed but not something beneficial to someones else?where’s commonsaychel with the Wikipedia page on trolling?
@health
the only reasonable way of phrasing your argument is that slavery is okay. naturally the question of reparations doesn’t begin. and the notion of slavery not being okay, even in this generation, also doesn’t begin.I am not going to debate whether or not it’s okay. the only question here is if reparations is Wokism or not, a question predicated on slavery is wrong. there is no way to say slavery is wrong in this generation but never was. and if you think there is please explain it using rational reasoning –not excerpts of a college ethics class.
@health
I never took any ethics course in college, chasdei hashem. but by any sane method of reason, morality doesn’t change. (of course circumstances and outside factors change, which can cause a difference in application of a moral, but never the core moral.)
I hope “moral” means “morality”. if not you can correct the above sentence to what I meant to say.@health
if you’d like to make an argument condoning slavery, this generation included, fine. but if the premise is that slavery is wrong, then it was always wrong. just because in generations past it was accepted to do wrong doesn’t change its wrongness.there are some good anti-reparations arguments presented here , most or all regarding the technicalities.
here is a partial list of ridiculous arguments:
it happened a long time ago
the slaves are dead now
in Asia there’s still slavery going on
there are blacks who enslave blacks (although this may be a good argument to the particular reparation plan)@philosopher where is the contradiction?
does this topic serve any purpose?
