Modern Chasid

Twisted,

This is exactly my point! This is why i was saying that the Agudah should first focus on that before other things, specially this instance where they are trying to change a law that helps unfortunate yidden from corrupt batei dinim.

Furthermore,

asking the government to change a law in a way that it will be singling out Jews from others is a major mistake!! Why are we trying to make ourselves more conspicuous in this Galus!!?? this is how things started in Europe! Laws became specific to certain ethnic/religious groups as opposed to being a blanket over all citizens! Asking that the law be changed for us is only going to be detrimental to our welfare in this country!! If that proposal was passed, where would you draw the line? maybe many other laws should be changed in regards to Jews as well!

Lior,

The Bd jurisdiction is only accepted for the reasons I enumerated above! People accept the jurisdiction of BD expecting it to be a fair trial! But when the BD is skewed to the favor of one party (as in the case above) the other party is forced to go to the secular courts in order to fight it! They aren’t sore losers! you make it seem like people can tell if BD is being partial to one party BEFORE the case begins! How would people know this before the case begins!! these BD are supposed to be reputable places of Din!!
