    @WIY chickens are known to eat other animals: mice, etc.

    Ashkenazi: the women wearing sheitels normally wear a sheitel everyday

    Sephardim: the women wearing sheitels normally wear a mitpachat everyday, but borrowed a sheitel from their Ashkenazi neighbor/friend for the wedding party

    @Toi there are even Chabad websites that claim that their dead Rebbe is Moshiach. The Chabad of Central New Jersey has entire section dedicated to offering “proofs” that he is Moshiach. You are correct that noone comes out and condemns such nonsense.

    WIY: why blame Sephardim? That’s racist.

    lakewhut could be and is are two different things. Believing that a dead Rebbe is moshiach is idol worship, and there is no way around it.

    Joseph, are you not concerned that the leftist nonsense that the reforms worship will begin to pollute the minds of these indivduals, and thus make it more acceptable for chillul Shabbos and other such disgusting things to become mainstream?

    In addition to many divorces, Facebook is responsible for “half Shabbos.”

    What if the husband divorces the wife (with a get) over the burnt food, but then he later marries her again. That’s a mitzvah he would not have been able to do if the wife did not burn the food in the first place!

    Why won’t people call out some of the real people responsible: parents interfering in their children’s married lives.

    It could also mean that the shadchan was not invited to the wedding, or paid the going rate in full when the engagement was made.

    Some OOT areas might not be too nice, but others are VERY attractive.

    If you move to Cincinnati, the state gives you a $4700 private school tuition vouch every year per child (per the OU’s website). There’s also an eurv that encompasses a nice (yet affordable) neighborhood, some kosher dining establishments, etc. Sure it’s not NYC, but at least you can live a more comfortable life and not deal with so many liberals.

    AJ: No one against the school for “at risk youth” has brought up race. Why make the issue about race? The issue is that juvenile criminals will be invading a neighborhood. Criminals come from every race, so those making it about race are showing that they may have racist beliefs.

    I don’t think it’s wise to bring criminals into a neighborhood that is already being terrorized by youths committing antisemitic attacks that we read about here on YWN on an almost daily basis.

    huju: it’s been reported here on ywn that the yeshivot offered to pay the same as the charter school

    Time for truth: I honestly believe that MK Lieberman is attempting to bring unity to the people of E”Y. Having frum youngmen in the IDF presents a great opportunity for kiruv. While some may worry about their children going OTD when exposed to hiloni soldiers, provided the children had a solid upbringing in yiddishkeit, then there should be nothing to worry about.

    Now while I strongly disagree with the Conservatives, which is better to have in our neighbourhoods: juvenile delinquents (“at risk youth” is a leftist codeword for teenage criminals), or fellow yids learning in yeshivot?

    Note that I NEVER brought up the color of the “at risk youth[s]” skin, it was you that did so.

    “BTs should get most of the credit because they chose a difficult path in life. ”

    They actually do!

    rational, saying that everyone should learn yiddish is coming from a position of privilege and promoting Ashkenormativity. It erases Sephardim and their history from Klal Yisrael. Sephardim have been around longer than Ashkenazim, yet for some reason many yeshivot continually dismiss Sephardi minhagim. Yiddish only is not the way to go.

    Why not do the whole thing in Hebrew and Aramaic? The only people that would be lost is those that “learned” from Artscroll.

    CH: I agree. So why can’t we use those languages then. Unless someone was “learning” daf yomi with Artscroll, then they should be able to understand it all.

    If women were not suppossed to learn with the daf yomi, then why are women seats at the siyum hashas?

    I wonder how those supporting Yiddish only speeches would feel if there were speeches only in Ladino or Arabic instead.

    Going Yiddish only in an undercover way of rejecting Sephardim. Many Sephardim study along the daf yomi. The event should be exclusively in English to be available for all Jews.
