there are many issues, just a few quickly
a pet is Muktzah on Shabbos.
in some circumstances walking a pet with a leash can be carrying.
you cant feed a pet with mixtures of meat and milk, you have to be very careful reading the labels.
i didnt say those things apply today.
you asked a question implying that the behavior of Yidden should never be dependent on the goyish holidays
besides who exactly is the “we” that should not “allow” such a thing?
if our zadies and alter zaidies conducted themselves in such a manner, if ones Posik intructs him to conduct himself suchly, if this an ancient Minhag of Klal Yisroel, who is the “we” that shouldnt allow it?
i dont keep it, but your question needs questioning.
I don’t understand why we are allowing ANY Jewish practice to depend on the date of a non-Jewish holiday.
is there not a Gemorrah not to greet goyim on the days of their “holidays”?
have the Jewish People not had the practice of staying indoors during their holidays, throughout the centuries, because these were the times when their murderous instincts were most aroused?
bend your topic a little !?
for me staring wednesday
thats kind of like saying: can you tell me how to fix a car?

<em>text</em>solitary esophagus!? did you put that in there?
i believe that the Ur Casdim inyan we are told is literal. the har c’gigis may not be.
im not certain about this
there is no chiyuv to believe their literal truth (or the literal truth of any particular aggadata).
this is not true. some are literal, some arent. which are which are told to us by Chazal. those they tell us are literal we have an absolute chiyuv to believe.
everyone please read oomis post carefully
she says put him ON a washing machine
please dont read this as IN a washing machine (as i originally did)

sorry
sing this to the tune of the Chanukkah song:
“paul newman…..not Jewish, but his father was”
adam sandler was wrong
wrong thread
but we are moderators nor software engineers
posters cant change it. what do you want to change it to?
(ill be gone for a few hrs..learning, IY’H)
i cleaned my bandana by banging it between two rocks in a lake. thats how they did it on tv
totally ruined it
no giardia then. no one ever got sick from mountain water. were talking in the general area of 50 years ago. no such thing as permitted camping zones. you set up your tent wherever your heart desired. usually at least a thousand feet or so from the nearest party in your group
med school? morons!
mod school rejects go to med school
we mod from moderator central a huge skyscraper located in CLASSIFIED
VIN? never heard of it
i was 13 when my father. A’H took me on a sierra club backpacking trip around the grand tetons. i have no idea of the route but we only saw two other people the whole time (a week). one scraggly young guy who was proud that all he had with him was some beer and a copy of nietzche.
the other was a ranger who was looking for a rogue bear. the bear found us, scared some people but no harm. i was chasing it for a while. i think i would have tried to pet it if it would have let me. i wasnt too smart.
we didnt bring water. we drank from rivers. i suppose you cant do that anymore
they’re busy moderating, not posting, that is their job after all.
and they’re shy
some men some women some married some not.
our pay is the satisfaction of a job well done.
and i think we get a free t-shirt or mug or something at the end of the year.
once THERE was a little old ant, thought he could move a rubber tree plant
no one here will dare to admit they were wrong and they see the validity in the other side
why dont we admit both sides have validity in their own way according to the way one lives his life and end this
just a suggestion
thats a good question sj which each person has to decide
as in almost every matter one has to decide the exact parameters of where and how to apply it
but you make it sound like some kind of a refutation or something
there is no difference
rubbing alcohol is rubbing alcohol
good question!
usually somewhere in the single digits
there are plenty of existing threads for mods questions
please ask there
this isnt going to work unless a moderator stands very close attention all the time eliminating duplicate posts and rapidly approving
i cant
and
happened
varies extremely widely. between a few seconds to a few hours. depends on how many and which moderators are on
you should be able to answer this question yourself
this thread was supposed to be deleted. im going to close it now.
if you have other mod questions there are already other threads for this.
its up
if you post and its approved, and after its approved you edit it, it goes back up for approval again, but it might take longer to get noticed the second time
just the way the software is built
sorry
Okay
this is a highly controversial topic. fine.
the deleted posts from both sides are piling up.
please keep this about the issues and NOT about your “assessment” of those that disagree with you.

first of all in my opinion it WAS sonething “bad” which is why it was removed.
second of all you are correct in that “EDITED” can sometimes make it look like something worse was removed than actually the case. my preference would be to not write: “EDITED” on the majority of edited posts unless it was a very significant edit
unfortunately there are a number of posters who think they know how to moderate better than the moderators and like to inform of us of their ideas. many have expressed total outrage at the practice of editing posts without such indications. so therefore we incidate the edit in all cases (except spelling or the like.)

the parents chinoch of their children should be primary.
they may wish to instill a certain kind of respect for adults partly by the mechanism of titled names.
or perhaps their chinuch should be that the children should respect whatever preferences the adult prefers, in your case to be called by their first name.
the first is much easier for the child, more consistent, and my personal preference.
but in any case the primary determining factor should be what the parents have decided is best for their children
mrs shira is a nice compromise
it seems the coffee room is not a venue where satire is sufficiently appreciated.
you get people who are only too happy to correct your spelling errors!

if you will please explain your number-word, ill undelete it. i may have misinterpreted it
“megillahs” are not prohibited, just recommended against as it is usually too big of a tirchah for the mods to read them
DHs post was probably too short to be included in our admittedly nebulous definition of what is a megillah
nice psychobabble klach
you wouldnt enjoy flying? just for a start.

hence all the posts that have nothing to do with the subject are still up
my earlier post was a comment not an instruction
wolf
i changed my mind
i think its a good kasha
and i believe i have the answer
you know the Gemorrah re a granary of produce. you can ask for the amount to be larger than it actually is (changing the past) but NOT if you already measured it and know how much is there.
so Hashem DOES change the past in certain circumstances but CHOOSES not to do so in other circumstances, apparently when it involves rewriting our daas.
exactly Gavra, Hashem deals with us according to the reality that he has given us. Thats why the question is not a question. But wolf was asking specifically according to Hashems reality so to speak, and according to his question physics is not a limitinf factor.
i think were going to get nowhere here fast, we might already be there
i believe wolf is, quite properly, asking the question according to actual reality, which is Hashem, not according to “physics” or “metaphysics”
huff
(not I, one word only)
i dont see the kasha
of course Hashem can change the past or future. as far as His “Willingness” to change one but not the other…*We* do not live in all time at once. to *Us* the past has already occured and obviously from our perspective, cant be changed. the future, if there is such a thing, has not yet occurred and anything can happen, from our perspective it is not fixed, we have Bechira.
it makes sense to us to daven that someone should have a refuah. would it ever even enter our minds to daven that a certain person should never have become ill 2 weeks ago?
