excellent forensic work
making ^ 4 it now
translation: making up for it now
yes i saw it. that was a clever guy
im certain you are right
finally a good suggestion
that is truly a taste of Gehinnom in this world
one accepted pshat of the fires of Ghinnom is that it is busha, severe busha from which there is no relief and of which one never becomes accustomed or hardened.
Rabbi Miller, tz’l emphasizes this point
and implied that for Yidden to se a glimpse into Gehinnom is part of the pshat as to why the Holocaust happened
i apologize to wolf by implying that he would poke fun at anyone. this is not something he generally does.
my personal suspicions are that this is wolfs personal brand of something akin to satire, and he does not really think he is going to Gehinnom but is poking fun at those who imply that he is, for believing such logical things and not being like a sheep and being led blindly without thought.
be that as it may, and wolf will certainly deny my pshat if given a chance, that is the end of this conversation, it doesnt belong here as wolf has said.
actually it gets erased from your screen (and immediately formed again) every time you scroll more than a pixel in any direction
interesting
not up my alley though
but of course it would be critically related to what the exact situation was, the type and extent of conjoining of the twins, and the cause of death to mention two
popa clearly was not making a Halachic distinction, but just painting a paradigmal example
because a seemingly hypothetical question was asked.
the question was in no sense rhetorical and therefore the poster either wasnt thinking tightly when he wrote the subject or doesnt know what rhetorical means
the poster meant “hypothetical”
I often repeat it to myself in stressful times and as I am falling asleep at night.
what a most wonderful, rare, and important idea.
and of course you meant “infer”
undoubtedly a rare slip, i know you know the difference
whats your best guess wolf?
and of course, every human being who comes from Odom HaRishon has a Tzelem Elokim. theres no room to argue otherwise
myfriend is correct
but once they are married FORGET THAT REGRET, immediately and forever.
learn to love him and NEVER EVER let anyone know that you ever regretted this decision, NEVER. and especially keep it forgotten if you are ever angry at him or disagree with him. please remember this and resolve NOW before the potential situation arises to NEVER bring it up
youre arguing about different concepts
it is well known that Jews have a higher form of Neshama than the people of the nations. this is a basic principle of Yiddishkeit mentioned many places especially the Ramchal.
is the behavior of Yidden better than that of the nations?
as a People, certainly, far better, far more moral, far closer to Hashem and his ways, far more gentle and kind and generous.
individuals? thats a whole different story. certainly the behavior of a particular goy can be considerably better than some particular Yid. mother theresa must have been far more beloved in Shamayim than bobby, but their potential was in no way comparable.
wolf i know how much you hate nitpicking, but still, knowing your mathematical prowess, isnt the convention usually to have point B between point A and point C.
(no smiley needed here i assume)
well, i may have exaggerated…just a little mind you….about my car.

please stop by the bourbon thread
leave me out of consideration please
bravo!
you might want to post that over here as well:

perhaps even more than Halachic questions
please, please ask a Talmid Chochom, especially one who is a Rav of a Shul and is experienced with such matters
thats BETTER than a car is to an adult (well most adults)
we won a trip to disneyland, no joke
not only the most civilized. they were considered as the paradigm of manners and kindness of all peoples in the world.
these opposite extremes undoubtedly were to teach the Jewish People a lesson.
unfortunately so many lessons that we have been taught over and over and over again, continually fall on blind ears and eyes.
nevertheless we are obligated to act with menchlikeit to goyim that we see, because this is what Hashem wants as Rav Auerbach said.
yes youre right
just dont forget this is a complex inyan and dont judge everyone who has a negative opinion or who is not negative but is trying to be mkaim the inyon of havdallah
its not as simple as you are presenting it
i added in to your spin, some additional basic yesodik principles which we must not forget
what do you care if the giver didnt give it any thought or you dont feel it is appropriate?
i give up
if you dont understand the concept of a gift and the menchlikeit of the receiver to be grateful and not judge the gift or the giver i will not be able to explain it to you.
I noticed theres quite a bit of anti Non Jew sentiment here as well as in the frum “velt” in general.
be very careful
this is your perception that it is anti gentile sentiment
do not forget, on the other hand, the very important Mitzvah that the Jewish People must keep separate from the nations, neither mingle nor assimilate nor even follow their customs.
and even though there is a mixture of true anti-gentile sentiment along with this in the velt..we are a people that has been tortured, decimated, persecuted, murdered in the millions, throughout our history by these nations. let us not forget this. we do not turn the other cheek.
nevertheless, of course we must behave as menchen especially in times of peace where anti-semitism is as strong as ever, but buried beneath a thin veneer of tolerance.
yes gifts can say different things
but as the recipient, you have one obligation
to be grateful
and certainly not to judge the giver
unless your attitude that it is not a gift but owed to you
rush limbaugh
i do have experience in this area
many years ago i was asked to do something by a relative
i decided not to and she went elsewhere
it turned out to be a disaster
if i had done it it would have been very painful for both of us each time we saw each other, forever!
and her immediate family as well.
in addition i think i would have felt ashamed in front of my whole family even though i knew it wasnt my fault
this stands out as one of the best decisions i ever made, with the help of Hashem of course
by the way, what a nice thread.
goq
its a gift
think about what it means to receive a gift
