    oomis- that approach is correct. one should, however, have in mind at the actual naming of the child that the name for someone not frum should not be referring to the grandparent but to some tzadekes with that name.

    rf- point is herzls vision of the future jewish people, by extension the vision he tried to propagate, and by extension the vision of a zionist state had nothing to do with yiddishkeit. no one is saying we dont love EY, we just cant understand why loyalty to a rasha and his Godless dogama mst be assumed in order to be allowed to love the land given to us by He whom herzl would soon happily forget.

    rational- honestly, health and katan have been arguing that the state caused the current hatred to wards jews, and you go back them up by citing four arab nations that all kicked out their jews, and all of them conveniently after the states founding. you jsut roved their point. and honestly, herzl took the jew out of judaism.

    CM- thats yeshivishly inaccurate. if you ask any RY over 50, they will tell you that the AH or the chayei adam can be relied on to use as a final psak. it isnt even kluhr the MB meant to decide every case he brings down. youre simply wrong.

    well, isnt that assuming too much? the direct correlation between the jewish communities ability to live in peace in egypt and their subsequent persecution to the founding of the state should show that that was the cause.

    how about the fact that jews lived in relativ epeace in egypt until the declaration of the state? thats a pretty decent rays that we can live under them in peace. i think the only shailah would be that theyd probably want to vent 60 years of anger and kill us all, so its not viable, but the etzem co-existence is possible.

    caddict- its not about how naive the recruits were. i also see soldiers here every day with payos. the tayna still stands. maybe they thought that upon induction everyone has to undergo one headshvae. maybe they though the rules changed this year. maybe they were afraid of being court marshalled and thrown in jail for who knows how long in this anti-chareidi country. point is: jewish state, jewish army, bye bye jewish payos.

    jfem- I heard fromm my wife and sisters that on simchas torah the ONLY thing theyre doing for a couple of hours is watching the men. not davening as part of a tzibbur. and there must be a reason why this idea is not frowned upon, even in yeshivish circles, but you can bet it would never happen the other way around.

    jfem- i know. im suggesting that what you are essentially asking him to do is ignore an issue that he probably dealt with for years and traumatized him; namely, bullying. If OI associates taller, bigger people with bullying then you can assume that although he may be able to interact day-to-day with people, he would not want a person with whom he associates bullying as his spouse. there, i think ive said it well.

    jewishf- im usually very against the whole looks thing as being the koveia for a date, but im really hearing mr illusion here. before anyone decides im lyin, th oilam should know that my wife is about an inch taller than me and i couldnt care less. that being said, this guy is expressing a different problem. i dont think its the fact that he needs to be BMOC, rather that after dealing his whole life being the smallest and probably the picked on dude in class (i commiserate, i was always the fatty) he wants someone to see him not as the little shrimp to be swirlied, but as someone to be looked up to and respected, and it happens to mean to him that she has to be smaller than him. he doesnt really mean skinny lie model perfect, and thats not even the nekuda. it just happens to be the same thing other people want for different reasons.
