The purpose of any vaccine is to prevent infection, not minimize symptoms or make it “less likely” to kill those who get vaccinated.
No! No! No!
True achdus and shalom/peace doesn’t have to mean that we’re dancing together and hugging each other all day everyday. When ehrliche yidden accept other ehrliche yidden’s right to daven their nusach and go to their respective manhigim for guidance and/or blessings, that is the best achdus.
Rav Zalman Brizel ZT”L of Yerushalayim once said (I’m paraphrasing, not necessarily quoting) “My Rebbe doesn’t have to be the biggest Rebbe. He’s MY Rebbe”.
To the OP
Lubavitch is bo less guilty than anybody else. For them the only true achdus is all of Klal Yisroel being Lubavitchers. Leave is alone and maybe we’ll leave you alone.
@Reb Eliezer
It’s not the same thing. It’s based on it, some parts more some parts less.
Whilst you are correct in the pronunciation of the actual “shem”, when you have to avoid saying the shem “Elokah” is correct. Saying “ak” is akin akin to enunciating any “shem” and adding “chhhh” (or anything else) to the end, because you have effectively said the shem already.
Don’t confuse birchos krias shema with piyutim. Nishmas and the extended first of the birchos krias shema are most likely piyutim.
IMHO: The problem is that the younger generation is learning in litvishe yeshivos and they assume that if they daven nusach ashkenaz it means that they’re litvaks, the oiberlender shifted to chassidish.
You misunderstood him. He wasn’t belittling anybody. What he meant was that it has nothing to do with chassidish vs. non chassidish. It’s all about location, location, location.
Regarding the other names you mentioned, there is actually no way of knowing how the tzaddikim from 200+ years ago pronounced anything.
Crickets from the left wing of the CR.
“like he doesn’t let knapsacks”
This is a hardcore “Brisk” style yeshiva. What do you expect?
“Boys and girls should have to go on 5 first dates with different people before they go on a second date”???
Are you an ehrliche yid? This is a good idea? Young frum people should be going on dates that they know in advance isn’t going anywhere?
I didn’t say I believe that. I’m saying that according to those who say it’s doche limud hatorah and tefilla betzibur it should be doche kol hatorah kula.
I recall so many commenters saying that pikuach nefesh is doche limud hatorah and tefilla betzibur, and basically kol hatorah kula. Why don’t they find that pikuach nefesh is doche a possible chilul Hashem?
We’re not using the Goyishe calendar. In chutz la’aretz v’sein tal umatar is said beginning 60 days after Tekufas Tishrei. The Tekufos follow the solar calendar.
It’s not about the Goyishe celebration. It’s about Tekufas Teves. Once upon a time it happened to fall on December 25th which is still celebrated by most Xtians to this day even after the calendar was corrected.
Any POTUS has the right to issue pardons and clemencies at will to any person he so chooses from the day he is inaugurated until the day he leaves.
@BenK Might I suggest that you rent a private apartment for your son? Or homeschool him?
*Sarcasm alert*
Give us and all the yeshiva bochurim a break. It’s not the first time you’ve yelled at us about these issues. You aren’t going to change anything.
3) Furthermore, do you have any idea what Amudim is about, or do you just read some headlines and spew nonsense?
1) Why are you screaming at us? Take a chill pill.
2) I smoked for 21 years. I switched to vaping 6 years ago because I couldn’t breathe. Vaping saves lives. Stop believing Big Tobacco and their lawyers.
You need to start a really stupid thread like “I cut off my peyot”, then people will assume that your chassidish even though you wrote peyoT. You need it to be clickbait. Substance is meaningless!
Nobody is President Elect until the Electoral College votes.
According to you (OP) only a Republican has to be gracious in transitioning. Democrats are correct, nay REQUIRED to set up nasty roadblocks for the arriving administration to have to maneuver around for the next 4 years.
@Luna That’s how the system was set up. The House represents the population. The Senate represents the states.
I think it’s a poel yotzei
1) Why would there be lulav fragments in the siddur? The most likely would be aravos which are the most fragile.
2) Why is this topic still showing up on the home page?

Please open your own blog and stop opening new anti Trump threads. We know you don’t like him.
Thank you,

Covid will go away regardless of who is at the helm, Biden and the Dems wouldn’t be more effective in fighting it. We need to keep the current President on to rebuild the economy.
As George W. Bush said When I was young and stupid, I was young and stupid. (I left out the quotes because it might not be a perfect quote). Yeshiva boys are young and they’ll do stupid things. Nothing you say to them will change it. This topic has been discussed in Yated’s chinuch roundtable and many other places ad nauseum. It’s a pointless discussion.
What are “Literal” democrat staffers? Are they working for the Literary department or the Literacy department? A different department that I can’t name? Please clarify.
BLM started under the Obama Administration with Obama as a founding member. If he had condemned the original riots in Ferguson the US would be in a much better position today and not heading towards that very dangerous possibility.
YWN started as a blog and it still is a blog.
Trump was more than willing to work with the democrats when he was first elected. They chose to not work with him.
Your first argument is pointless. Biden has nothing in common with traditional Republican values.
@n0m The President can’t legally do anything to stop the riots (he tried). Biden won’t even condemn the riots
@1 (Regarding the original post) If moving to EY is important to you, no election outcome in the US should be a factor in your decision to log out of the coffee room and move. You can log back in after you’re settled in.Dear moderator please pin post #1892468
Our community doesn’t have gangs and murderers. Cops issue more parking and traffic tickets in our communities. That has to change. We shouldn’t have to suffer just because they’re bored and have illegal quotas which they deny having.
Reform is around for two centuries? Really? Where are the descendants of the original Reform Jews? Are they Jewish? Do they even know?
@RebEliezer
Everybody has a legal right to try and get a restraining order against another person or try to stop them from publishing a book inthis case. If you prove it in court gezuntrtheit.
You obviously get all your info from CNN and MSNBC. If you were to open your mind you would find that conservative and pro-Trump voices are silenced much more often than liberals. Twitter, YouTube and Facebook are known for silencing Conservatives and deleting their accounts. They call it hate speech.
Some people are offended by the way Frum Yidden dress. It’s called freedom of expression. Until somebody acts upon Confederate or Nazi beliefs by owning slaves or operating a death camp it’s constitutionally protected.
Be as liberal as you want. Hate my President as much as you want. Remember, they can come after your rights as well.
The former ME who concluded that it was murder is payed to find murder always. Epstein committed suicide. He decided it was murder.
I was talking about the site fee.
Registration is free but if you want to accept a shidduch it costs money. There’s no way of knowing what’s available. You don’t get to make your own searches. Matchmakers do the searching and will try their best. I’ve never had any luck.
Rashi makes the Gemara available to the masses. Chumash as well. My father’s Rosh Yeshiva discouraged bochurim from learning masechta nedarim so they shouldn’t think that they could learn without Rashi. But then, your name says that Mesorah is meaningless to you.
@N0M
If you learn without Rashi, you make up your own pshat.
People should probably still be wary for the time being, but come 2022 (hopefully sooner) if you’re still crazy about it they will be opening Corona Mental Wards.
Haimy thinks we’re supposed to have power and clout. We aren’t entitled to anything. We’re in Golus! We ask Hashem for things. Then we GROVEL at the feet of whichever goyim are in power. It doesn’t matter if we are doctors or lawyers or bankers. To the goy we are still dirty jews. I’m not into quoting the Lubavitcher Rebbe but sometimes it’s necessary. When asked if the Holocaust could happen again he said “overnight”. Bloc vote is meaningless. Frum (supposedly frum) elected officials are powerless. We shouldn’t be in any position of power. That’s what puts us in the crosshairs. This golus is a vicious cycle. We’ve had clout in the past but that didn’t take us out of golus. We should try improving our clout where it truly counts.
