Whether Haredi is default for “original Judaism” is dependent upon your willingness to accept the Baal Shem Tov as a prophet or not, isn’t it.
Does “hippie” mean a pothead attending Phish shows? Just curious.
Moshiach isn’t NK. He isn’t Satmar either. He will not sit with those who would kill his people. He is supposed to be the lowest of the low, hated of men, dead at birth. Certainly not someone who would appear on television shaking hands with a wannabe Hitler like Achmadinejad.
ari-free: If people start worshipping him as Haredim are wont to do, then yes I might. Moshiach won’t let anyone worship him, but will guide klal yisroel to return to Hashem. As selfless as Moshe Rabbeinu himself. His kingdom will be known as the kingdom of truth, remember? He has to be someone that the kohen gadol is willing to anoint.
I expect the Haredim to fight Moshiach because he may not recognize their way of life. What if he shows up wearing a baseball cap? What the Haredim are waiting for is someone who will essentially stomp out all competing streams of Judiasm.
A republic is a form of democracy but is not a direct democracy where every citizen makes every choice. There has to be a constitution to protect the minority from being marginalized. The king doesn’t have to be a mere figurehead, either. The Torah provides for a bicameral leadership structure where the power is divided between Moshe and Aaron but that doesn’t necessarily mean absolute monarchy. It’s just that what the king says, goes.
As an American, I think the British parliamentary system is too indirect and doesn’t give the people enough of a voice. Of course I’d like to see a constitutional monarchy but in the meantime I believe Israel has enough citizens and regions for a small republic. The Haredi tzibur will simply not accept a non-Haredi king, so I think at some point they’re going to pack up and leave Israel to wait for their own Moshiach.
20$ approved. Just think of the &#@%$ (edited) I’ve said that nobody ever read. The mods know…
Sorry, I didn’t like the word you used and I couldn’t come up with a better one.
Anyone who disagrees with me or my rabbi is a rasha
Do not believe the propaganda that Satmar hasidim (in all their flavors) are sub-human perverse misanthropes incapable of dealing with the real world.You omitted illiterate, intolerant, uneducated, sadistic, exclusionary, perfidious, duplicitous, and racist.
That’s not funny. No wait, yes it is… but not the way the mods think.
Please change mine to “Occasional interjector and full time antagonist”
On the treife internet, bad grammar exposes your lack of education and makes you sound like an idiot in general. It’s very hard to take someone seriously who can barely spell or use grammar.
Woke up drunk.
Judaism is a vacant monarchy in which certain leaders need to be reminded that no one has been anointed anything.
I watch the Mets lose
May his neshama have an aliya
I blame the Jews. I mean, duh.
??? ????
There isn’t a single Mets fan in this thread? Not a single one. Oy, gevalt is klal yisroel in deep deep trouble.
