AAQ: Rambam paskens a Beis Din can execute 100 people a day, if the situation warrants it.
ujmParticipantAre there any others that haven’t been mentioned, or newer services?
ujmParticipantHang signs all over the walls imploring people to return Seforim to their correct shelf, immediately after use.
ujmParticipantIMHO, with a stress on the “H”, the reason for all the unnecessary stress people experience in shidduchim is because the tzibbur has moved further and further away from how Yiddishe shidduchim have been done for time immemorial. When Tattes were Tattes and when kinderlach were kinder, two Tattes would get together and agree that my Yankel in Cheder is a perfect match for your Shaindel in your Yiddishe shteeb. A few years after the Bar Mitzvah we’ll make a nice little chasuna, with the Seudas Mitzvah on Friday night after Shabbos davening.
I don’t know if we can get all the way back to that ideal, though that should be the goal certainly, but surely we should move back as close to the above scenario as practical and feasible.
ujmParticipantWould it be fair to say that (more often) males are closer to their brothers and BILs than to their sisters and SILs whereas females tend to be closer to their sisters and SILs than to their brothers and BILs?
ujmParticipantVideos can have highly inappropriate content. Once you permit “kosher” videos, you lose a large degree of controlling/stopping emails from containing non-kosher videos.
ujmParticipantYou’re very very far from the only one. Many people are in the same shoes.
ujmParticipantAny Jew qualified for public benefits should accept every penny he’s legally entitled to. Regardless of his employment status.
ujmParticipantIt seems to me that the OP’s scenario is not significantly different than if a guy is very interested in the girl from around the corner but he becomes aware that the interest isn’t reciprocal.
ujmParticipantReports on the death of books and paper are greatly exaggerated.
ujmParticipantSwallow and move on.
ujmParticipantDaMoshe: Did you ever get an answer from your Rabbi for Avram’s question?
December 30, 2021 11:39 pm at 11:39 pm in reply to: 🦠😷Raise Your Hand if You’re in Quarantine!😷🦠#2046829ujmParticipantTake it easy, Biden reduced your sentence to only five days.
ujmParticipantN0m: What’s your comment have to do with my point or address it in any way? There will be good and not good therapists regardless if they service both genders or only one gender. But if they service only their own gender, they’ll have less opportunity to sin or have Yichud.
Your example of the male therapist specializing in troubled girls makes my case. If the community wouldn’t tolerate opposite gender therapists, he would have been denied the ability to have inappropriately acted as you described.
December 30, 2021 10:50 pm at 10:50 pm in reply to: The world should take action on Israel’s treatment of charedim #2046813ujmParticipantN0m: Yes, the statement is a blanket one.
ujmParticipantn0m: I don’t see any coherent rational in your comment why if our communities had firm expectations that male therapists would only service males and that female therapists would only service females, how that would entail any significant loss, while its benefits, whatever their limitations, are clear.
December 30, 2021 7:43 pm at 7:43 pm in reply to: My Poasts/Comments are not getting Approved. #2046782ujmParticipantn0m: how old be you?
ujmParticipantYseribus: You’re blinded to the serious dangers of opening up the Pandora’s Box known as the Internet.
December 30, 2021 6:39 pm at 6:39 pm in reply to: The world should take action on Israel’s treatment of charedim #2046752ujmParticipanthuju: Mechalel Shabbos, treif fressers, are not included in being considered our brothers in Klal Yisroel, and the associated benefits and considerations that entails.
ujmParticipantn0m: Why not?
ujmParticipantRomain, what you’re describing is called “fat fingers”.
ujmParticipantAbout that controversial topic, n0m, I had submitted several days ago a very pareve response to your Titanic-type scenario, on the old thread. But the mods apparently, in their infinite wisdom, deemed it insufficiently feminist to even permit the halachic thought to see the light of day.
ujmParticipantVery simple solution:
Jewish male therapists should only take male clients, if individual privacy is required for sessions, and Jewish female therapists should only accept female clients.
And, then, they can all be therapists. There are enough of both genders to cater to each one.
Problem solved. Next topic, please.
December 29, 2021 8:37 pm at 8:37 pm in reply to: The world should take action on Israel’s treatment of charedim #2046334ujmParticipantfollick2: the irreligious authorities don’t carry the benefit of being considered part of Klal Yisroel.
ujmParticipantMy birthday only occurs once in four years. And sometimes not even once in four years.
December 29, 2021 8:33 pm at 8:33 pm in reply to: The world should take action on Israel’s treatment of charedim #2046321ujmParticipantBravo! The OP, Romain, is 100% correct.
The US should put sanctions on Israel for its human rights violations against Chareidim.
December 29, 2021 1:10 am at 1:10 am in reply to: Protecting the innocent and false accusations #2045938ujmParticipantN0m: Would therapy in a glass see-through office/conference room that is completely sound-proof to the outside, that has people milling about outside able to see but unable to hear anything, be convoluted? It would seem the privacy is preserved.
ujmParticipantB_T OP: You’re 100% correct.
ujmParticipantBored Teen: Thank you.
Now brace yourself to be called a sock puppet and misogynist (like you said) by the folks who cannot believe there are sane folks out there who don’t subscribe to their feminism.
ujmParticipantThat was popa’s most precise comment in the CR, ever.
ujmParticipantI just moved to Provo, Utah, to continue my shlichus from a new locale.
ujmParticipantAvira, Yasher Koach. Sometimes I can relate the Emes but can’t explain the details as well as you.
December 28, 2021 1:36 pm at 1:36 pm in reply to: Protecting the innocent and false accusations #2045711ujmParticipantTLIK: EXCELLENTLY stated. On the button and 100% correct.
ujmParticipantCS: we can follow all shittos by having an 8 oz piece of kokosh hot out of the oven with a cup of cold milk
ujmParticipantCheese blintzes and cheese latkes probably came directly from Har Sinai, considering how good they are (if done right).
ujmParticipantA Yid shouldn’t be a foodie.
That said, agreed, farina is delicious.
I’ll pass on sushi.
ujmParticipantOkay, then, let me say my point:
If you have inside information about this case take it up with the bais din
ujmParticipantAvira, isn’t 1/5 and 1/10, in mathematical terms, considered to be a percentage? I’m saying the same percentage for everyone. But that means the rich (individually) pay more real dollars than the middle class. And proportionally so.
ujmParticipantShe did not say that. She thought the mod comment was yours
ujmParticipantThe underlying issue is our kehilos’ inability to enforce a taxation on all Yidden, including gevirim based on their income.
ujmParticipantTry google
ujmParticipantEven with the context of what this thread is discussing, Syag is dead wrong. She openly admits above that the case against him isn’t certain (she says “there is less than 5% chance of it being false report”; the likelihood is much greater than she’s willing to admit, but her admission is sufficient.) Yet she’s willing to publicly condemn him as guilty by calling him a potential pedophile in an open forum and even goes so far to condemn anyone else who dares to defend the reputation of a man she admits may be innocent.
ujmParticipantCA, after my last post I checked some other sites and found what this thread is about. Prior to this I hadn’t heard the news.
ujmParticipantSyag, what in heaven’s name are you ranting about? This is a generic conversation not regarding any particular case. If this is discussing a specific situation, I have no idea which one. Nothing indicated it was.
ujmParticipant“I doubt you have any idea how many more people have committed suicide as a result of being the victim of such crimes than as a result of having been accused of them.”
And that gives you the right to potentially falsely accuse in the public arena?
ujmParticipantN0M: If I start wearing a yellow jacket, purple pants with orange socks and a maroon Yarmulka, the majority will acclimate and appreciate my style, and perhaps follow suit?
ujmParticipantLet’s all pray that Biden lives until January 20, 2025 and that his dementia doesn’t become too much worse that the communist socialist far-left Harris gets anywhere near any real power.
ujmParticipantDaunte Wright’s absence from this world is no loss to civilized society.
ujmParticipantMike Pence would certainly make an excellent candidate and superb President. I should have included him.
Scott Walker is also excellent.
December 26, 2021 10:03 pm at 10:03 pm in reply to: Why aren’t autistic people that are orthodox open about their diagnosis #2045060ujmParticipantThere are Asperger’s people all over the place. 1/3 of them don’t even know they have Asperger’s, 1/3 of them know but don’t care or do anything about it and the last 1/3 runs around getting treated.
The very idea that Asperger’s is part of the autism spectrum itself is relatively newfangled.
