iac: When I say Torah I’m using it in the broad sense to include what Chazal teach us.
LC: It’s a privately owned bus who has the right to set their own (religious or otherwise) seating rules.
It’s an Anti-Semitic self-hating Jew traveling together with her Yarmulka wearing boyfriend sitting next to her.
Her name is Rosa Parks.
CTL, if one is capable of being a legal scholar it seems to me he’d also be capable of being a Torah scholar, would he have chosen to so apply himself to it.
iac: Meir Kahane said outright, in those words, that he’s safer in America than in EY.
The Torah kind. Eved Knani.
I’m glad my question led the OP to clarify his intent to move, which was a necessary piece of missing information to address his original question.
Okay, the other kind of slavery.
iac: The Gemorah about marrying a Bas Talmid Chochom.
The Torah endorses the concept of slavery.
The BMG statement is far different about the President than the RCA statement.
CTL, the Torah tells us to judge the girl’s father and brothers, and insure they’re upstanding Torah Jews, before agreeing to marry her.
Not everything is, or should be, about control.
Avi, at certain points in davening you’re supposed to be at pace with the shliach tzibbur in order for you to be considered to be davening with the minyan.
Not all of them had cherry trees. And those that did have, some had their slaves chop the trees.
Do you plan on walking from Brick to Jackson twice every Shabbos?
It wasn’t just Chareidim who overwhelmingly voted for President Donald Trump. Other Orthodox Jews did as well. Including Modern Orthodox Jews.
And if he runs again in 2020, you’ll see pretty much the same Orthodox Jewish voting patterns breaking for him.
Look what happened to Meir Kahane, big shot founder of the Jewish Defense League.
He thought he was safest in America.
What’s a boy to do if he’s is an am ha’aretz?
yytz, you’re dead wrong. The white supremacists, the KKK and the Neo-Nazis are all many decades old and none of them are part of the alt right. None of them, at all.
Stop believing everything the liberals put in Wikipedia.
There are more than a few secular Jews who are members of the alt right.
The KKK/NN are marginal nutcases, extremely few in number and with zero mainstream support. The left-wing Anti-Semites are far more dangerous, far more numerous and with lots of mainstream Democrat support.
All Brits sound the same to me.
But, yeah, the Ben Acher Ben was for Yekke’s question of “My question was why they all stop at the Chasam Sofer, but don’t continue one extra generation to his shver, R’ Akiva Eiger.”
yytz, you’re incorrect. The “alt right” has always been people OUTSIDE of the KKK/NN/WS nutcases. And the rally was alt right.
If he’s a Talmid Chochom? Of course.
If she’s a Bas Talmid Chochom? Of course.
I hear that MO Yidden are fully accepted to daven, and (gasp) even to join, *any* shul in the area.
This is just like the last time the media and their Democrats accused the President, with his Jewish son-ln-law and grandchildren, of being anti-semites when they blamed the threats against the many JCCs as being his fault.
Until it all turned out to be an Israeli kid and an African-American Obama/Hillary supporter.
It is a perverted lie peddled by the media that some have brainlessly eaten up and swallowed that the President praised WS/NN/KKK as being nice people. The President did not say any of the white supremacists/Neo-Nazis were nice guys. He said that within the rally there were NON-white supremacists/NON-NN that are nice guys and were there to only protest the removal of the monument. Whether he is factually correct or not (and I believe he was factually correct on this point), he certainly was not referring the white supremacists as being nice.
chymee: You make some interesting points that I could even agree with, but nothing you wrote — even if all true — explains why there’s more girls than boys in shidduchim in the Litvish velt.
What the President stated was that the rally was organized by and contained participants who are NOT NN/KKK/WS but are Confederate statues supporters. And that the idiots from the KKK/NN, who the President condemned (not that he has to condemn every idiot in america who protests) latched unto the pro-Confederate statue rally.
Lilmod Ulelamaid: That comment you quoted from me was intended to be a response to Geordie, not the OP.
Yekke,
if most terrorists are Muslim, is their being Muslim irrelevant to the issue of terrorism (i.e. in regards to prevention)?
If most crime is committed by men, is that fact irrelevant to the issue of crime (i.e. in regards to prevention)?
The Torah says you’re wrong, ZD. Shabbos 55a. People benefit from zchus avos for many generations.
It was nice seeing you last time.
The Antifa/Black Lives Matter/Extreme Left-Wing have killed multiple police officers and other innocents. They are far more dangerous, far bigger and far more respected and accepted by the Democrats and mainstream media, despite their virulent Anti-Semitism, than the tiny marginal nutcases of white supremacists/neo-nazi/KKK goons who no one in the media or political class kowtow to.
The President did not say any of the white supremacists/Neo-Nazis were nice guys. He said that within the rally there were NON-white supremacists/NON-NN that are nice guys and were there to only protest the removal of the monument.
Why would a Swiss-German speaker understand Yiddish any better than a German-German speaker?
Avi, According to the Israeli CBS census you’re wrong. Israel has more Ashkenazim than Sephardim.
The RCA are a bunch of wannabes who look for any opportunity to issue a press release to remind people they exist.
Very well said, popa, about the Charlotte situation.
lot112: All the other issues you mention wouldn’t contribute to the real issue of their being more girls than boys looking for a shidduch.
Most Yidden, both in Eretz Yisroel (per the Israeli C.B.S. government census) and certainly in the world at large, are Ashkenazim.
CTL, much of what you said is because millennials, overwhelmingly, choose urban areas of living, such as NYC, LA, SF, Chicago, etc., over suburbia. And land and space is at a premium in urban areas.
That is accurate to a certain extent. It is accurate that Chasidim most frequently marry the same age. By the Yeshivish more frequently the groom is a few years older than the bride.
CTL, do you believe welfare benefits should be curtailed to poor non-(FT)working blacks?
CTL, yet you do mind the even smaller amount of government entitlement benefits collectively given to “black hat” Jewish families.
There’s a disconnect there.
