    People might say the mi shebeirach, but no one can omit it. It’s not a standard part of the text about which you could call not saying it an “ommission.”

    I get you, mod, although I specifically took that example because it’s the liberals’ cardinal sin.

    Let’s try again.

    nfgo and CTLawyer, would you agree that assault should be legalized? If you think it’s wrong, you don’t have to assault anyone yourselves, but at least let it be legal for those who want it.

    As for halacha requiring Jews who own businesses to give preference to hiring Jews. Dina Malcusa Dina.

    DDD isn’t m’chayyeiv you to hire/not hire anyone.

    If you choose to live in the USA you agree to abide by the laws. This isn’t Tzarist Russia or the USSR where Jews were kept in by force. If you don’t like the laws, work to change them through the political system or leave.

    Besides for your logic, or lack thereof, isn’t the subject at hand which of the two philosophies–liberalism or conservatism–are better? In which case, that response to Avi K, who was criticizing certain laws, was either irrelevant or inadequate, or both.

    No one’s forcing you to post in the coffee room. If you don’t like the posts, either get the mods to delete them, or leave.

    I don’t want any part of a gay marriage for myself, BUT I support extending civil rights and opportunities to all US citizens without discriminating on the basis of sexual preferences. Civil marriage is a contract between 2 adults and it gives certain tax and other benefits. It has nothing to do with religious marriage and the accompanying rules.

    It has nothing to do with marriage, either.

    You should definitely wear a tallis. There’s nothing wrong with unmarried boys wearing a tallis (there’salready at least one thread about the subject, which I’m too lazy to link,) By all means, wear a tallis, and be zoche to all the blessings that come from it.

    As an aside, it would be best if you can meet an Orthodox rabbi who can guide you. Also better if you can find an Orthodox shul to daven in.

    However, if one is really angry, one votes against a party that is stupid enough to choose Mr. Drumpf. Such a party- and its voters- don’t deserve to be in power-ever.

    Some would say the same about Her Royal Majesty and her subjects, the Democrats.

    Mr. Drumpf is the most unqualified and dangerous man to run for President.

    Some would say the same about Her Royal Majesty.

    Check out what he said yesterday about the national debt and US Securities.

    Check out what she said–and remember it, because whatever she says is a once-in-a-lifetime-opportunity. No two times are ever the same.

    If he ever gets o the White House,he will cost this nation trillions of dollars in extra interest costs and drive the reputation of the United States into the mud. We would be just like Greece.

    Some would say the same about Her Royal Majesty.

    About 2 months ago, I was talking to someone and he commented that as things stand, it looks like it will be Trump vs. Her Majesty, and pointed out the irony of it: Democrats are often referred to as the “Mother” while Republicans are the “Father.” Now, we’ll actually have a mother democrat vs. a father republican. Furthermore, Trump will likely attack Her Majesty about all the scandals, all of which are true and factual. Clinton will likely say that Trump is a bully and “unfit”, etc. Hence, Trump will be dealing with fact, while Her Majesty will be spewing emotions, characteristic of their genderal roles, so all in all we’ll have a real Mother-Father fight.

    Looking at the exchange between dovrosenbaum and ROB, I think it’s living up to his prediction.

    That can’t have been his reasoning, because he already said he wouldn’t be Trump’s running mate.

    I like Cruz, and sure hope he’s not Trump’s running mate. It would be very hypocritical if he runs alongside trump, and it’s not like if he’s on the ticket Trump stands a better chance against Her Royal Majesty.

    charliehall, ‘??? brings the ??????, the ??”? and ????? bring it from the ???????.

    We don’t usually pasken by Toseftas that contradict an explicit Mishnah,

    there isn’t any explicit ???? regarding this; there’s at mosst a ???? in ????? (explaining a ????) which the above ??????? reconcile with the ??”?’s position.

    especially when there is an unopposed Bavli that supports the Mishnah

    if you’re referring to the ‘?? in ?????, it doesn’t say anything explicitly; the ????? actually brings an alternative ????? which supports the ??”?’s position.

    Even ?????? that there is an explicit ???? not like the ??”?, the legend about a 3rd ????? during the talmudic era will do nothing to resolve his position.

    1.4: No proof. Nor any real way to prove it. It’s not that there is a third Gemara. It’s that there was a third major Yeshiva that is more Yerushalmi-based than Bavli-based. It has no proof. It’s just a theory that answers a lot of questions.

    A lot of unasked questions.
