There are no “rules.” Not every submission gets accepted for publication. Same as any publisher.
How do you know you can’t find it?
Noon. 25 canton street, sharon
He will go to ToMo.
Where is he now?
“Every Jew needs a rabbi. He’s your final authority. Ask him your questions.”
Joseph and I agree on something.
Where you disagree is “Every rabbi needs a rabbi.”
I think the key word in that sentence is ask. A lot of people try to consult their local orthodox rabbi, but are not successful because they forget to ask.
For example, suppose you want to know if it is muttar to use the internet. So you go to your local orthodox rabbi, and say, “the internet, azei.” And he has no idea what you want, so he just answers “the internet, azoi.” If you want to know, you have to ask.
im thinking this thread makes absolutely no sense but until someone ties it into zionism i will consider it an oasis…
Now that makes sense. It’s a moshol for zionism.
The zionists live in klal yisroel’s land, and have the gall to complain when asked to pick up part of klal yisroel’s expenses.
Maybe he participates on inshidduchim, and wrote the ongoing story?
Definitely not fair to hire a cleaning lady and then not pay her.
“1. Bet Shammai and Bet Hillel argued for three years (Eruvin 13b).”
Yes. Presumably much more cordially than CR posters do.
The gemara says beis shammai put armed guards at the door, and killed many people from beis hillel who tried to come in, and then voted on a bunch of stuff without beis hillel.
Cufflinks from I8Kermit with his initials or name in hebrew, or in the shape of a steak.
Over the years, I’ve noted that invariably a topic involving either Israel, Zionism or pizza, or ice cream, or shabbas abbas or shabbas imas or women rabbis or male maharats or hobbies for men, or questions on yoreh deah and choshen mishpat, or altah bochurs, or most heartfelt xmas song in your neighbor’s opinion, or inshidduchim story, or or all of the above, will pop up. Like clockwork, the same arguments, pro and con, get regurgitated.
So, here is my question to the pro posters: why do you respond?
A. The lesschumras, Avi Ks, rabbiofberlins, midwesterners, syags, VMs, DYs, YW Editors, Ferds, Freds, rebyidds, OneofManys, TwoofOnes, E pluribus Unums, Bar Shattyas, Head in the Sands, Now are you Happys, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, etc are entitled to their opinions
B. Their beliefs on this subject are strongly held and, as has been amply demonstrated ove time, will not be changed
C. Responding to their points invariably sinks to an unhealthy level of tit-for-tat.
My suggestion: simply do not respond. If no argument is made, the topic dries up . Responding only generates sinas chinam from both sides. By the way, this would also apply to the anti posters. If you don’t take the bait on a provocative pto post, they’ll go away as well
Cooking.
I’m not up to 16 yet. Finished first perek this morning.
They used to fight over who would do the terumas hadeshen, which pretty much boiled down to taking out the garbage.
Probably the open orthodox female kohanim.
I thought the one in Boston is the rebbe. He’s the one who took over his father’s shul, and chessed work.
“Can everyone now say outloud that OO founder and leader Avi Weiss is not frum?”
To say that would be motzi shem ra. Even his most bitter opponents had to admit that he is a kosher eid.
You’ve argued that before, and I have responded before that I doubt I am his most bitter opponent, and I do not admit he is a kosher eid.
Are you referring to a specific conversation or encounter when you claim that?
BTW, did anybody actually answer the question in the OP? What is the position of the YU/MO Rabbonim on OO?
You mean like the RCA?
Ask your local nonorthodox maharat.
Do OO weddings require a get? Maybe OO asked the Moetzes to say this to solve the aguna issue.
Did he then drink the bochur’s wine? Did he use him for an eid at the next yeshiva wedding?
the RCA did not put out a Kol Korea, It was a statement, but not a Kol Koreh in the same meaning as an Agugah Kol Koreh
I have no idea what you mean by that. My only interpretation is that you have this thing in your head that you think the chareidim do and you interpret everything we do int that vein, and anything MO do not in that vein.
The only difference was the words kol korei on the top and the fancy sounding whereas.
I can say whereas also. See. e.g. http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/wherein-popa-gets-his-deserts
Please tell me where the Chofetz Chaim did not count a jew who as part of a Minyan or did not drink wine touched bya jew
Um what? Are you kidding? You’re insinuating that the chofetz chaim didn’t follow b’feirush halacha?
The more modern communities and Rabbis will ignore because they do not issue Kol Korea’s. The communities dont work that way.
That’s a funny thing for you to say on the same day the RCA issued several kol korei’s.
It lives on to a large degree through his talmidim v’talmidei talmidov vch’, who have yeshivos for younger bochurim.
That’s fair. It’s really just the rest of the yeshivos which have become de-facto BMG feeders that are the tragedy.
There are many talmidim who do keep a strong kesher to their rebbeim from younger b”m years, but I suppose not to the same degree as CC talmidim.
Of course, a kesher with a rebbi is very important. And definitely 2 years of shimush and limud is enough to pick up the rebbi’s mesorah, so much so that you’ll want to leave and go learn somewhere else.
If BMG isn’t teaching a mesorah, as you claim, then Rav Kotler’s yeshiva is also dead. v’chaval al d’avdin.
I agree with the plumber. BMG is for older bochurim, whose hashkafos were already established in Telz, Chaim Berlin, Riverdale, Fallsburg, etc. and possibly further developed in Eretz Yisroel.
Ah, the old “2 years establishes you as a talmid for life” theory.
Do yeshivos like Mir in NY (or Torah Vodaas) not have non-BMG hashkofos?
You tell me. You’ve met any talmidim of mir in NY lately who stayed for more than a few years? And the people they’re hiring learned in mir, or learned elsewhere?
Torah v’daas is not a yeshiva, and never was. It is an institution committed to producing baal habatim.
ok, really though, this is a stupid question. CC has different hashkafos than Chaim Berlin, or than BMG.
It used to be that all the yeshivos had different hashkafos, but then all the other yeshivos except CC and chaim berlin weren’t able to keep their talmidim long term, and the talmidim all went to BMG, and then the yeshivos hired rebbeim from BMG and from other yeshivos, and so they all lost their hashkafos and replaced it all with BMG. And so the great yeshivos of Europe died, v’chaval al d’avdin.
If a girl wants to have BMG hashkafos, of course she should not marry a CC guy.
MDG: Why not just add preservatives in the dough? They work really well!
Which Bais Yaakovs do “Chofetz Chaim girls” go to?
Same as everyone else.
If your father is a rosh yeshiva you go to BJJ.
If your father is out of town teaching 7th graded you go to Bnos Chava.
Buy bakery and spray your own preservatives on.
Some people are very into externals. I assume she’s also the type of person who thinks anyone who isn’t shuckling very hard is not having kavannah.
This is first I’ve heard of it. And lol
Once heard a call come to posek about whether rat blood is nosein taam lfgam. So since the question was so specific, he asked that isn’t it battul b’shishim anyway. No, it wasn’t.
Bah popa v’heemidan al achas: Bring beer.
You will buy it from a friend or from a jewelry store that a friend recommends.
You will overpay.
You will get a “good deal” compared to buying from like Tiffany’s or something like that.
It’s the way it’s done. Rabbim shasu, rabbim yishtu, k’mishtei rishonim kach misthei acharonim.
Mazel tov!
I know the girl, and she’d have to be nuts to date your son.
I think VM is talking about hashkafa. I pretty much agree with him.
My yeshiva once brought in some kiruv wackos to convince us with their brilliant proofs. They were dumb. The presenters were dumb, and so their arguments were dumb. I can make much better arguments, but I spent 2 days making fun of them instead, because they were dumb.
