and dont call me einstein,
a half-wit
you have no idea of the life of a moderator
i have to be always on the alert, as the defense department frequently calls me in if their war simulation computers are acting up. they shut them down temporarily and i run the simulations in my head.
as Rabbi Miller, tz’l has explained many times it is because the Yetzer Hara has raised a huge kitrug against Talmedei Chochomim.
In addition, those that have not absorbed and nurtured a true Torah Daas see darkness as light and light as darkness.
the same reasons why Jews themselves have always been hated.
not that im referring to you of course 105
for certain moderators with subpar IQs
we were forced to the old system of using their age
ive answered that question before
the moderator number represents half (due to our humility) the IQ of the moderator
i am very proud of these Jews who acted as courageous soldiers of Hashem
yes popa, way
its not an oxymoron
megilas is the construct form of the word.
you can properly translate “Megilas Esther” as “the revealing of the hidden”
and that is not an oxymoron either as revealing something hidden just means that it WAS hidden but NOW is revealed
im pretty sure the Rabbis are pocketing those extra millions
probably to pay for their private islands they own and live on in the summer
oh i see you ae talking about maps
i thought, for some reason we were talking about a globe
another way of looking at it
if north or south is on top, it stays on top as you rotate the globe.
if you place north on say the left, then as you rotate the globe the area of the earth on top is constantly changing
you cant have east on top as east is not a place, it has no location, it is only a direction.
north and south are locations (as well as directions towards those locations) as defined either by geomagnetism or the rotational axis.
you can walk “towards the east” for an infinitely long distance.
you can only walk towards the north until you get there (about maybe 6,000 miles from the equator, also a place)
what a coincidence!

another possibility is that, hard as this is to believe, they thought they were being funny
BTW, the explanation as to why so many posts said the same thing is because they were posted when the earlier ones were not yet approved.
cutiepie
72 said it all
okay im up! tone it down please
FWIW
i have no idea where elishas post has come from
there was an autism thread on which the poster “chance”, whom elisha is referring to, promulgated that vaccines cause autism. chances last post was in the beginning of november.
of course
just be careful you dont become rigidly fixed in any particular direction.
there is also a place for criticism, for Tochacha, for guidance in improving, for discipline.
i hope the Purim postings dont look something like this:
i jst wntto say idoNt’thimk im durnkkk dmkcjjcm
i think popa has found the crux of the problem.
but still i think it is good for someone who has a fair degree of Emunah to discuss it, both cognitively and emotionally, including his own possible questions and how he deals with them, with someone who wants to find that which he knows deep down is the Emes.
i wasnt trying to win any argument with anyone
i was trying to explain the Rambam , as i understood him, to someone here who mentioned it.
but, in any case, some will find meaning in it, and some wont. it all depends on what one is looking for.
of course by “logic” (which sounds like some kind of unchanging ultimate Truth) what you really mean is human logic, formulated by puny, human minds and culture.
yes, Hashem is not bound by our understanding of the universe.
i believe the Rambam was addressing the question about the supposed conflict between free will and Daas Hashem (the fact that Hashem knows what will happen)
i dont know his exact approach but it was explained to me something like this:
Q: it is not possible for me to reconcile free will with Daas Hashem. this is an unresolvable paradox and it really bothers me.
A: does the conflict between free will and Salvanism bother you as well? Do you find a paradox there?
Q: of course not, i have no idea what Salvanism is!
A: and you think you understand the Mind of Hashem, His Daas?
also being over ANY lav or even minhag, in public during a shmad,
some wait 5 1/2 hours (rov of the sixth)
robitussin?
apparently youve never had it smeared with chicken schmaltz and a little salt.
a punk bovine who gets a target tattooed on his neck
a bovine looking for work in a slaughterhouse
someone who buys oxycontin on the street
someone lighting a match in a hospital room where everyone is on oxygen
someone trying to climb mt everest without oxygen tanks
thats one important factor to consider
daas: you are correct.
and yes
i for one dont want women using the airplane restrooms for nursing.
its hard enough to get an open restroom on a plane when you need it
yes, as should funding for all arts.

i agree with your general assesment of this topic but for different reasons
i dont know about the Halacha, but when someone volunteers to do a job he has a certain responsibility to make sure he does it properly. after all the job is important to the one that asked for it to be done, and had he known the volunteer would do a subpar job he might have arranged for a different person to do the work.
so, at least in a moral sense, you do “owe” something to the “employer”
did you make any mention of the water you would drink at the event?
what about the use of their tables to place your equipment on?
did you stand on the floor? although minor, i imagine your walking might have weakened the structure of the building to a small degree?
do you know exactly how much it contributed?
perhaps you should hire an engineer to find out?
did you speak to anyone there not 100% necessary to your job? did that distract them temporarily from paying attention to the event?
i think your Halachic problems are just beginning.
a guy wants something that shows that his Kallah is thinking about him and knows what he likes.
you hit a raw nerve
it was feeling crumby?
it had a chip in her knee?
it was burned?
chipped tooth?
wanted to feel butter?
there were actually about a hundred smileys.
i deleted most of them because they were messing up the page
my parents were not Moderators. my father tried, but couldnt get in. he had to settle for being a nuclear physicist.
in my case i got in without clout
im not sure how exactly
the Board said something about previously unheard of intelligence, or something like that.
