Well said.
Chacham: Did the Tzitz raise his taainos to Reb Moshe? What was the response?
Stay put, young man, stay put.
mmm22: IOW, the girls dress to be ogled at weddings for the shadchanim?
hello99: That much would be pretty obvious.
The message is for us all.

I’ve heard of loads of girls names and have never been tempted to tell someone it was a pretty name.

I still think it’s a pretty name.

What gives? You never heard the name before?
Doesn’t the Gemorah say 99% of people die early due to ayin hora?
And when the boy does get baited by her short dress and perfume and jewelry, does the Yeshivish boy wait to stalk her as she leaves the wedding (constantly checking the other side of the mechitza to see when she is leaving) and ask her out as she walks out? Or should he just walk over to the other side of the mechitza and pull her from the dancing to ask her for her number?
Bullseye! Bullseye! Bullseye!
Maybe Yeshiva boys should go to public school for secular studies, since we all know how great American public school pupils come out in knowledge of their studies.
Unfortunately we live in a time where girls & I mean girls, not married women must use bait to catch the fish.
Are you kidding? They can be nichshal men “to catch the fish”? What’s the heter for that and who issued it?
BTW, in the Yeshivish community how many marriage do you personally know that came about from a girl dressing to be stared and met a boy (who was looking at the other side of the mechitza) at a wedding? Do you also suppose removing the mechitza at the wedding? How else will these girls looking (and dressed) to be looked at be able to “bait the boys” at the wedding with their choicy dress?
And, do you really expect married women to dress less attractive at a chasunah than unmarried women? (As a realistic matter, not idealistic.)
Earthquake and Tsunami
by Rabbi Dr. Abraham J. Twerski
According to the Torah, there are seven Noahide Laws that are binding on all human beings, and these constitute the Natural Law according to which the world operates; these are:
Prohibition of idolatry
Prohibition of murder
Prohibition of theft
Prohibition of sexual promiscuity
Prohibition of blasphemy
Prohibition of flesh taken from a live animal
Requirement to have just laws.
All human beings, religionists and non-religionists are required to abide by these laws, which underlie the Natural Law according to which the world operates. Violation of these laws is tampering with Natural Law, whose consequences can be catastrophic.
Is this an injustice? Yes, just as it is an injustice for a pedestrian to be killed by a reckless driver. Such happenings occur because G-d does not interfere with the free choice and behavior of human beings. Just as we do not fault G-d when an innocent person is killed by a reckless driver, we should not fault G-d when innocent people, victims of hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes and tsunami, suffer from the reckless behavior of those who violate the Natural Law.
No one is singled out to suffer the consequences of tampering with Natural Law. Violation of the seven Noahide Laws by people on one continent may result in a disruption of the Natural Law according to which the world operates, and the consequences of such disruption may occur on a distant continent. The disruption of the Natural Law which affected Indonesia and Haiti may have been caused by violations of the Noahide Laws by people the world over. No individual or group of people can be singled out as responsible and as being punished.
The seven Noahide Laws are the basis of decency and morality. Every human being should behave according to them.

It’s over. Not much happened.

Thank You Mrs. Hall!

I’m a guy, and I couldn’t tell the difference between one type of dress or another.
There is most certainly a message from Hashem in all this.
Sam- Many states had anti-sodomy statues for hundreds of years.
Sam- It has NOT always been legal to do this sin. The Supreme Court only overturned the anti-Sodomy laws about 6 years ago. Those law made the actual act illegal. Furthermore, the “civil union” laws are itself a recent innovation of the past few years, that ought to be done away with together with the toeiva marriage laws.
Being near a closed window is unsafe?
Very timely.
Same in Brooklyn (currently).
Sam- No, people have NOT accepted it as legitimate these days. EVERY vote by the people in the U.S., came out against toeiva marriage. Even in California. 29 States voted in Constitutional Amendments banning such a sick farce marriage.
Which is very wrong.
The hurricane’s path is going down the I-95.
The gemora (Chullin 92a) that says that the nations of the world, however sinful, corrupt or perverse, still have the merit of at least three behaviors, one of which is “they do not write a kesubah for males.”
Yerushalmi Berachos, perek 9, halacha 2, (64A):
Rav Acha taught:
[Earthquakes happen] because of homosexuality.
Midrash Rabah, Parshas Bereshit, perek 26, paragraph 5:
Rav Huna taught in the name of Rav Yosef:
The Generation of the Flood was not blotted out
of the world until they made official marriage contracts
Sam- The Gemorah specifically writes that governmental non-recognition of homosexual “marriage” contracts is what saves the goyim.
The mandatory evacuation order in NYC for Zone A was given on Friday, before Shabbos. The legal deadline to evacuate was 5 PM Saturday. But it was known before Shabbos already.
Popa is absolutely correct. It is very tragic that girls dress up for a wedding to attract strange men. Yet it unfortunately not only true, but very prevalent. This crime is done by both married and unmarried girls.
When, and what, technology allowed predictions of hurricanes – and when was it developed?
popa- No one that has it will profess so. If one professes so, it’s a good bet he doesn’t have it.
Sam- I didn’t say they are Nevi’im. Ruach HaKodesh is a different level than nevius. But R”H exists in every generation.
yitayningwut: It’s good you weren’t blown away.
Sam- Your logic to require sunglasses would logically extend to require burkas.
Our Gedolim, today, have ruach hakodesh. They can tell us why the earthquake and hurricane happened, and what we must do.
Until when did no one know beforehand that a hurricane was coming?
Sam- WIY doesn’t need to justify taking his stance that is backed up by gedolim, which you acknowledge it is. WIY is correct in his criticisms here, as the gedolim you refer to make the same criticism in the OP’s situation.
