i responded with:
“big difference what you call it. orientation implies (to most people) acceptability, an equally valid alternative placed alongside normal “orientation”
sorry about the thread “
YW Moderator-80MemberSJ responed with:
“Wrong thread Mod.
OK so call it taivah instead of orientation. “
YW Moderator-80Memberhis “orientation”?!
no such Torah concept
a purely fictional invention of modern secular society as a sly pseudo-scientific manner to condone BEHAVIOR that is an abomination before Hashem and calls for the worst kind of death.
do some have this taivah more than others. absolutely. Hashem created different strengths of taivahs and middos and tachunas in everyone. should people behelped to resist this taivah? absolutely
but to live such a life is an ABOMINATION, HATED, and DESPISED by Hashem, our Creator, the Creator of the entire universe and everything within.
i accidentally posted this in a different thread

YW Moderator-80Memberi think your answer is perfectly applicable fabie
i was really referring to someone with difficulty fasting
by “perfectly healthy” i meant without any medical diseases that the IV would be treating,
just to make the fast easier
i had no idea people have actually asked shailos about this.
YW Moderator-80Memberwhat is a Gezeira Demalchisa?
a gezaira from the king? meaning HaKodesh Borchu?
YW Moderator-80Memberyes
YW Moderator-80MemberA female murderer is condemned to death. She has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven’t eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for her?
YW Moderator-80Memberdoc
blinky is obviously referring to your answer
she asked what comes next, not what is missing.
maybe i can go back and edit her question to reflect my answer
kind of like how the Dubno Maggid explained why his mashulim were right on target.
YW Moderator-80Memberi immediately thought that the letter “a” was missing from the word “standard”
unfortunately that wasnt the question
YW Moderator-80Memberdoctor
i was responding to your previous post trying to be funnily facetious
alas it appears i failed
sorry

I could not agree more
YW Moderator-80Memberpost deleted as a seriously failed attempt to be humorous. we do not tolerate poor humour on this website, corny humour and puns are allowed though
YW Moderator-80MemberG’mar chasima tova to you and your family. I ask mechilah for anything I wrote that was out of line…..
G’mar chasima tova to you and your family.
mechila isnt necessary, but moichul lach
YW Moderator-80Membersuperficial
it was rewarding for me to hear words spoken from someone who has a good grasp of the value of the Yeshivah, and what is really the “real world”
September 17, 2010 4:03 pm at 4:03 pm in reply to: Clearing up a few myths regarding Tznius problems #696803YW Moderator-80Memberdont be silly WIY
we all know that women arent interested in appearing attractive to men. this is a basic fact since the beginning of time. women dont try to attract men. its against their nature.
YW Moderator-80Memberno more so than a hard candy or cough drop (perhaps worse than a button as if you are using a cough drop you probably have a cough, and a cough consists of a large and forced inhalation preceding the exhalatory component of the cough)
YW Moderator-80Membersqueak agrees one should not put a Sukkah on a fire escape, and one does not have a right to do so.
he only states that the reason of sakanah is not alone enough, as the sakanah is no greater than a myriad of other activities we do on a daily basis, even though there is an equivalent or even greater degree of sahanah
YW Moderator-80Membersqueak
im not sure but i think you are misunderstanding the concern of sakana here
im getting the impression that you believe the poster is saying it is a sakana to live in a Sukkah in such a precarious location.
but i believe the poster is saying the sakana is to everyone, in the event that the fire escape needs to be used in the event of a fire.
or maybe you are not misunderstanding the poster
YW Moderator-80Memberonly when i can get a compliment out of it
YW Moderator-80Memberyes
i would start on hydration today and not wait until tomorrow
it takes a while for the body to equilibrate
thanks Mod-80 for bringing this back
youre the best
YW Moderator-80Memberany further thoughts?
YW Moderator-80Memberfrom feivel last year, wherever he is
YW Moderator-80Memberprof
i figured you meant lav dafka, just wanted to clarify for SJ
i believe that most Poskim hold you should do mechira even if you have no chametz mamish that you know about. see haifagirls response from her Rabbi (whom i happen to know and is completely reliable)
but im not sure if your conclusion is correct as charlie would be mevatel the blios, and then he wouldnt own them during Pesach
YW Moderator-80Memberthe custom today is to light a Ner Briah for every married male living in the home, in addition to Yahrtzeit candles.
some also leave a candle in the bedroom to remind the married couple of what is forbidden.
some also light a further long lasting candle to be sure to have an “old” fire for Havdalah
YW Moderator-80Membersj yes i myself am familiar with two doctors that have a heter from a prominent Posek to drive (or be driven) on Shabbos, under certain circumstances
YW Moderator-80Membersj is right
the custom is that you DO NOT sell your keilim. if you did you would have to toivel them as they previously belonged to a non Jew.
what you sell are the absorptions within the keilim, but not the keilim themselves.
the problem of Kashrus however would only be a problem if the goy actually removed the keilim from your control and sight.
September 15, 2010 6:25 pm at 6:25 pm in reply to: A moment of truth- why do we really judge others? #712063YW Moderator-80Memberwhat the OPs intent was, clearly referred to unfair and negative judging without a toeles. my comments were directed to this.
the thread has seen recent responses to a different question (the one in the title) about why, stam, we judge.
just to clarify
YW Moderator-80Memberthank you so much sj
im sorry i expressed my frustration so loudly
YW Moderator-80MemberMod80, I disagree that the man is responsible. It doesn’t matter what I have, its not your right to take it away. I just may be more likely to lose out in some way.
nevermind, try and read it again with no agenda. i didnt say he had a right to take away what is someones elses. i said exactly 100% the opposite of that.
read this: THE ROBBER IS 100% RESPONSIBLE!!!!!
THE FACT THAT HE WAS TEMPTED IN NO WAY, NO WAY AT ALL REDUCES HIS RESPONSIBILITY. HE IS RESPONSIBLE 100%!!!!!! HE IS EQUALLY RESPONSIBLE IN BOTH CASES
the victim also bears responsibility because he acted negligently, BUT THIS IN NO WAY, IN NO WAY, NOT AT ALL, NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT REDUCES THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE ROBBER!!!!
YW Moderator-80MemberMod80, with all due respect, there are quite a few Orthodox Rabbis who permit sleeves above the elbow. Even if your rabbonim disagree with them.
no comment
YW Moderator-80Memberi *think* we all can agree on the following, basically.
and i believe this will show we all pretty much agree on the parallel issue, its just a matter of not understanding the whole of what each other is saying:
scenario 1. man in crowded street takes out his wallet and openly counts his hunderd dollar bills. soon after, it is stolen from him by robber.
scenario 2. robber stam takes a mans wallet
in scenario 2. the robber is 100% wrong. the man bears no responsibility.
in scenario 1. the robber is also 100% wrong, and his punishment should be exactly the same as in the other scenario. however the victim is also partially responsible for what happened to him, ALTHOUGH IT IN NO WAY REDUCES THE ROBBERS RESPONSIBILITY.
YW Moderator-80Memberthere are also “rabbaim” that “poskin” that their congregants may drive to temple on Shabbos.
September 15, 2010 5:25 pm at 5:25 pm in reply to: A moment of truth- why do we really judge others? #712051YW Moderator-80Memberi think there is not a lot of doubt here
stam people generally find fault in others because that is the easiest way to increase their own evaluation of themselves.
YW Moderator-80Membernot sure what nm means, but changing the names is easy, the software is set up for it already. i havent messed with names for a long time. any new name changes since then, you can probably blame 42
YW Moderator-80Membersorry to disappoint you, but im no squeak, my verbal sparring skills are more mundane
YW Moderator-80Membersqueak
i was referring to style, not content
YW Moderator-80Memberby the way Mark Twain, (as well as many others), made his career as a humorist and writer almost exclusively via sarcasm and cynicism, in a humorous way. popas posts often remind me of Twains style (also squeak)
YW Moderator-80Memberi have nothing against popa
as a matter of fact i like the persona
i didnt post anything nasty about him
hes not a child
i pointed out the character of those two posts that another poster did not catch and that i believe popa intended
i dont believe popa would disagree with my assessment
if not, popa please stand up, and ill gladly delete my “nasty” posts
YW Moderator-80Memberaidle
im sorry, i didnt mean ALL his posts
just those two (and occasional others)
YW Moderator-80Memberhe was embarrassed to be named after a butler?
YW Moderator-80MemberAndrogen insensitivity syndrome ?
YW Moderator-80Memberalfred
YW Moderator-80Membercherrybim, try reading his posts as being sarcastic and cynical. the meaning should then emerge
YW Moderator-80Memberhaifa i “think” youre right that the Poskim say that everyone should do mechira.
im not sure your logic is exactly correct though.
do you sell chametz that you dont know about? im not sure but i believe you only sell that chametz of which you are aware. we rely purely on bitul for the chametz we dont know about (again, i think)
the blios in the kailim. certainly they are included in the sale, but in truth i believe that’s just sort of thrown in for good measure, does anyone actually want to buy the blios. just try someday to sell them to your goy neighbor, how would you even extract them from the pots to sell them. how could one make a kinyan on them?
i think it may be complicated but your question to charlie is a good one. id be interested in the answer.
YW Moderator-80Memberdental hygienist
good pay
set your own hours (individually contract to dentists)
always in demand
YW Moderator-80Membernot the restaurant business though
one of the worse rates of success of any business enterprise
besides requiring, usually, massive amounts of time and energy
September 14, 2010 6:13 pm at 6:13 pm in reply to: Places to do Tashlich in Boro Park or Flatbush? #696148YW Moderator-80Membersorry blinky, sometimes when there is a lot of activity a good post might get overlooked temporarily
YW Moderator-80Memberi believe charlie said that they get rid of all their chametz so there is nothing left to sell
It really hasn’t been a burden to eat it all up, or give it to a non-Jew.
