It’s painful to be able to read only half the conversation here.
Does S”A say it is only a Middas Chassidus?
m80: Who fixed your caps-lock button?
That may be, but for the majority of people to chap-up Shachris in a minyan of 34-37 minutes? The vast majority are skipping, mumbling, swallowing, and chewing up the words.
There is no way to properly daven at those breakneck speeds.
mike: I am doubtful there is even a single case of an Orthodox Jew who was never exposed to TV or movies that c’v intermarried.
Rav Moshe writes the Conservative movement is apikorsus, and it is assur to even go into their temple.
Sam: When popa challenged you on that point above, you conceded his point and modified your assertion.
Shituf (i.e. yushke worship) is avoda zora according to the Noda B’Yehuda.
So you must start Krias Shma with the tzibur, in order for it to count that you davened with a minyan, and start S”E while the tzibur is still saying S”E. Gotcha.
Sam: Clarify that please? I’m okay if I start S”E before the tzibur finishes S”E? (And does that include the Sh”atz’s repetition?) And does that “loophole” (bad word, I know) only apply if I started with the tzibur, or does it also work if I came late but caught up to S”E while the tzibur is still saying S”E?
I would love Artscroll Gemorah’s on the Kindle.
minyan: Make sure you tell them that you are Jewish and that’s why you are returning it. Otherwise it may actually be impermissible to return.
because he finds gender separation to be immoral
me2: And what if he eats non-kosher meat because he “finds shechita to be immoral and inhumane” and would rather eat animals that were stunned.
yungerman1: If I am up to the tzibbur by Shma, but said Shma too slow and only got to S”E after the tzibbur, I might as well as have davened at home??
aries- Taos Akum is certainly not theft. That is halacha.
The ???? in Toras HaOlah 3:56 writes that you should throw the bread in the water.
Uh, young boys and girls mixing. I would keep away with a 10-foot pole.
The people here who say that it’s spiritually inappropriate are the ones who weren’t in it!
Uh, that’s because they were wise enough not to go. If you know it is a spiritual danger you don’t go to double-check. Nor do you need to go to Mass on Sunday to know that it is spiritually destructive.
How does travelling with an adult alleviate a spiritually inappropriate setting?
Also, I’m not sure what teachers she is referring to (who said she is eligible not that they are advising it) since she said her beis yaakov wouldn’t allow it.
Can someone call Hatzalah or 911 if they c”v slip and break an arm — but there is NO sakanas nefoshos?
Can one have their child (under what age?) be mechallel Shabbos for them?
mak: If it’s a bad environment for a beis yaakov girl, it is also a bad environment for a yeshiva boy.
Originally, the OU was formed by the same rabbis who created the JTS. Henry Pereira Mendes helped create both the OU and JTS. Rabbi Dr. Bernard Drachman was president of the Orthodox Union and professor at the Jewish Theological Seminary.
Conservative Judaism was a break-off from Reform Judaism after it came to a head in 1883, at the “Treifa Banquet” at the Highland House entertainment pavilion where shellfish and other non-kosher dishes were served at the graduating class of Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati.
I don’t think you ought to “panic”, but you should get married as soon as possible. And surely not push it off for college. You can get your “MRS” :). It’s better to get married younger for many reasons.
Strauss-Khan and Knox were accused of two very different things. Knox was accused of something far far worse than Strauss-Khan.
ultra is e.g. Satmar, Torah V’Daas, Mir, Chaim Berlin, Belz, etc.
What’s the deal about the Wal-Mart SuperCenter that’s supposed to open in Monsey?
Meeting a head of state, whether nuclear (Russia, China, etc.) or not, doesn’t make one a “moser”. You need to learn the halachas before throwing terms around. Even meeting Eichmann or Hitler wouldn’t make someone a moser.
yungerman: You don’t need to spend in excess of $20,000 for a 9 month overseas excursion to teach independence.
Feif: Never heard that. Do you have a source for that?
Men are strong and intellectual. Women are emotional and excitable. Men take it much better than women.
C’mon, Wolf. There is only one poster (mr) who ever told you that, not “posters”. And that poster takes particular objection to *everything* (without discrimination) that, specifically, *you* do.
The Times doesn’t just lie about the Middle East. It lies on domestic stories as well as most of the stories it publishes. Some lies are bold and some are subtle.
I always take any story I read, whether on this websites news section or in the mainstream media, with a grain of salt. Er, make that a large dosage of salt. For the very reasons mentioned in the OP.
I forgive you, Goq, for your denial too.
I’m mochel you, Goq, for your attack on me on the other thread.
My goodness! After the feminists started demanding to do men’s work, now they want men to do women’s work!?
This is what Paraoh did to us in Mitzrayim. Let’s not go backwards.
Goq: I thought you said previously that you can’t (for some reason) ever get married. So what kind of dates are you going on? (I don’t mean to be inquisitive, I just couldn’t understand your above comment.)
If it was his indiscretion, it was permissible for him to remarry her (since they needn’t have gotten divorced in the first place.) But if it were her indiscretion, he was required to divorce and her and prohibited from ever remarrying her.
Halacha delineates under what circumstances a Beis Din is able to require a husband provide a get upon a wife’s petition for it. In the absence of meeting halacha’s enumerated circumstances for that, she is not entitled to demand one.
old man: The halachos pertaining to this are the same today as they were 100 or 300 years ago. The halachos do not change based upon the goyish (or other) social mores of the moment and place.
The RAN in Nedarim (90b) writes that a woman does not have the right to forbid herself to her husband, because she has no right to take herself out of her husband’s domain since she is bound by a contractual agreement to stay with him. He also is bound by a contractual agreement (in the Kesuvah) to remain married to her. But the husband has the power to divorce his wife whenever he wants.
The knees must be covered at all times. But let’s put that aside for a moment. Anyone who doesn’t cover the knees, will display above the knee, which you acknowledge is 100% assur. If her knees are uncovered, unless she remains standing like a statue all day, she will display above the knee.
The girls father should always give at least a brief farher in whatever mesechta the boy is currently learning, to insure he can learn. (If he is supposed to be a good learner, then the father might consider giving the farher on a surprise mesechta.)
Their knees (and above) are not always covered (sitting, walking, etc.) when they are in public.
