after a post yesterday i realized that he does not think seriously of his own posts
i dont know if hes having fun or its some kind of pathology but he is pure troll
although personally i do agree with SOME of his posts.
thank you cherrybim
Automated (very) External (or Emergency, i forget) Defibrillator
adorable has a good point also
for ex:
someone posts: hey i got this great email, take a look, LOL OMG!!!!
doesnt necessarily require a f/u by the original poster (and hopefully there wont be one)
no one has to respond
it IS impolite however not to
which i think is the point of the op.
its not a game
there are certain kinds of Jews who will seize any opportunity, no matter how flimsy, to call those more frum than them hypocrites.
i keep seeing this “iirc”
i finally figured out what it meant
i heard a fascinatining tape by him on my mp3 player yesterday,
the best part was missing though
please note in my above post that marijuana does NOT have to be smoked in order to experience its effects.
“Medical marijuana” is just a fraud, pure and simple. Smoking marijuana has no medical use whatsoever
could be, but where do you see that in the article you posted?
besides which that article is about a *synthetic* version of *one*
of the many active components of marijuana (albeit the one that scientists currently hold is the primary component that gives the cognitive effects). where is the evidence that consuming marijuana via the lungs, or orally is not effective in treating nausea and other medical conditions?
you have to be very careful and knowledgeable in interpreting consumer medical website information.
he apparently took your advice
we contacted him
i dont know about the sources in wikipedia.
as i said im personally skeptical, but there are many great people who are not.
it may indeed be a fraud, but unless you are familiar with the type of communication with an autistic child called “facilitated communication” that would be a pretty uninformed statement.
personally i am skeptical of the technique but am not certain.
additionaly there have been cases of “autistic” children who actually may not have been autistic but something more like “idiot savants” (excuse the expression please) who would “come out” of their autism on occassion and spout extremely intelligent ideas. i dont recall where these cases were documented. i heard it on an npr program (in my old liberal days)
in the Goyish society in which we live and whose values we so easily absorb and make a part of ourselves (without even realizing it), (unless we are very careful, work very hard at it and learn and practice Mussar), having couples over is obviously perfectly fine and it is laughable, very laughable that some fanatic Jews living in the dark ages caution about this.
this is exactly the Nisayin we are all facing today.
unfortunately the vast majority of us, as is evident from threads like this, are failing miserably.
so go ahead defend yourself
and you can feel guilty as well if that makes you feel so
im sorry i was referring to mosherose
that post pretty much confirms all our suspicions (at least for me i was leaving it as a suspicion, to most posters here it was probably a certainty)
that you dont believe half of what you say, which somehow is always provocative as well.
i think troll is the term reserved for this
no i have no problem with someone making such a statement.
you can follow any Rav you wish.
someone can tell you you should conduct yourself anyway he would like.
you dont have to listen.
you dont have to feel guilty.
no one is making you do or feel anything.
nor do you have to defend yourself
if you would like to though, go ahead
Why do you thing there is this prohibition on something that is less harmful than alchohol and tobbacco, and in fact has postive medical applications?
because it has been associated with a subculture of heroin use, violent crime, and other anti-social behavior.
yes i support its medical use
when my kids were little and they were interested in the beautiful poured whiskey shots on the Kiddush table, i told them it tasted terrible. if they were still interested i put a drop of it, from my finger, on their tongues. today none of them like whiskey.
The Boreh caused grass and rabbits to sprout everywhere. could this include other worlds. i suppose so. no reason to think so but i suppose it could be.
but He only created ONE Odom.
only ONE creation did He breathe into of Himself. only ONE creation that has Tzelem Elokim.
we’re VERY smart
mental telepathy
we’re very frum

some of your questions are discussed here:
i dont recall anything like that, maybe someone else will.
if beis din sentenced someone to death and he escaped before the sentence was carried out, how long can elapse for his capture so that beis din can still carry out the sentence?
once there is a gmar din, there is no time limit.
if the crime was committed as a young man and now he is 95,ill and incapacitated and the Godol HaDor, the sentence will be carried out.
i found this online:
“The BI’UR HALACHAH (OC 315:7) explains that an umbrella is not similar to a folding chair, because such a chair unfolds right into position. An umbrella, however, is different, because the metal rods keep the umbrella locked in the open position, and these must be clicked into place when unfolding the umbrella. Because of this, opening an umbrella is deemed constructing an Ohel, and not merely putting an object in a different position. “
sounds to me like our modern umbrellas
in addition ive asked two Poskim about this issur and i was told the problem is the issur of ohel
that of course is in regards even to an umbrella that was opened before Shabbos. even more so is it a problem to open an umbrella on Shabbos
the Bi’ur Halachah writes that one is prohibited to carry an umbrella on Shabbos because wherever a person walks while he carries the umbrella, he makes a new ohel in that place (since he is holding the umbrella for the sake of using it as an ohel, which protects the space underneath it).
Rabbi Avigdor Miller, z’tl, held strongly and said time after time that the death penalty is a strong deterrent to murder. he also said many times that the best rehabilitation for a murderer is the electric chair.
he was incensed at the liberal attitudes of todays society because that itself was the cause of much of crime. i dont know if he read all the statistical reports but he was a man of great Chochma and felt one was a misguided fool to listen to the liberals who had mercy on criminals.
all of his statements were based soley on the Gemorah and the Mesorah.
there are always two sides to the story.
you make abundantly clear the corrolary to that rule:
it is rare that one side is able to appreciate the other sides side.
these stores have reasons for their policies and there is nothing wrong with utilizing them, as long as you are honest.
my father, O’H, bought a craftsman vice from sears roebuck with a lifetime guarantee. 30 years of heavy use later he brought it back because the gripping surfaces were worn out. he told them that was the reason. he didnt make up some other reason. he didnt demand a refund. he simply asked does your return policy include normal wear. they proudly answered yes and gave him a new one, (which sold for about 5 times what the original cost)
ive told this story over many times, as has my brother, better than any advertising they could pay for, and i imagine thats what they had in mind when deciding on such a policy
sorry
there are always two sides to the story
wolfs point that Beis Din did not use the kipa whenever they would have wanted to, in no way is affected by knowing in which cases they WOULD use the kipa.
besides, wolf is not obligated to “back up his view”. he just was pointing out a logical assumption based on the case he stated.
if YOU are aware of the guidlines that the Sanhedrin used, please let us know
“I’ve seen far worse behavior among frum Jews on Purim than in any other ethnic group”
this is a racist statement that should be deleted.
happiest i think very highly of you
i dont even recall what post you are talking about
achosid has nothing to do with the yw editor, nothing
there was no baiting
that was another poster who likes your articles
im sorry happiest your last comment really doesnt make much sense
ask any psychiatrist and theyll tell you that 98% of their patients have a mental disorder. that doesnt mean that mental disorers are rampant. ask any orthopedic surgeon and he will tell you that 40% of his patients have fractured bones. that doesnt mean that fractures are rampant.
true
similar reason why, when i have a cold in the winter i sit outside for a long time with no coat hat or gloves.
i figure the germs cant survive in freezing temperatures.
no
i meant ill delete the link
use a word like that again and you will no longer be welcome to post here.
please link to it
i dont remember
but i will delete it after i see it
