popa: Let me rework that: Domestic violence rates (and divorce rates to a slightly lesser extent) can provide a fairly good *comparative* guide to which communities have better successful marriage rates.
Disagree.
Two communities with equal marriage success could have wildly variable rates of divorce depending on how much the society looks down on divorce, and could have wildly different rates of domestic violence depending on how violent the cultures are.
It’s like if you’d try to prove that catholics have happier marriages because they have less divorce. They aren’t even allowed to divorce. (You weren’t actually talking about catholics, were you?)
A happy marriage is where you eat the last piece of cake because you know she’d want you to have it.
I think divorce rates in fact are a good indicator of a communities rate of successful marriages. Another good indication is the domestic violence conviction rate reflected in the local court records or police blotter.
I don’t.
Both of those things have many other factors also involved. Probably you can say a marriage that ended in divorce was unsuccessful, but you can’t really get any more data than that out of it.
And probably we can imagine domestic abuse is not compatible with a successful marriage. But if you think it is a natural corollary of an unhappy marriage, that is very concerning.
Depends on the type of sickness and how sick you are and the type of medicine.

What if you’re in the same room as someone who was hypnotized to plant wheat every time someone says “bread”. Can you say hamotzi in his presence?

That’s ok. I’ve never heard of a yeshiva that does it more than half hour a day.
Even if you hold that opening the fridge is assur, lichora there is a loophole. If you ask someone else to open the fridge and he doesn’t know that there is a light that will go on, he is misasek.
This happened to me a few weeks ago, and I had that same theory, and I asked my rav. He disagreed. He said it was not misasek. Misasek, he said, is when you don’t know you are doing something. Unlike here where my sister in law would have known she was opening the fridge.
I didn’t really understand what he was saying though. Seemed to me that my sister in law would not know she was turning on the light.
I thought this would be a discussion of the shabbos app that I invented.
It automatically turns off the screen, and the typing, and browser, and email, and twitter, for shabbos.

I don’t believe anyone is an older single before they are 30.
If you aren’t old enough to learn kaballah*, you aren’t old enough to complain about who was called out 40 days before you were born.
*Popa is clearly not old enough to learn kaballah or nigleh, v’duk.
Lol. What you mean is that you weren’t aware that there is a HIPPA also.
Health information privacy protection act I think. Or maybe patient protection.
