Reply To: Jews owning pet rocks

Sam, we know that Horo’as Sha’ah can’t be used for Avoda Zara. If so, how was Moshe Rabbeinu supposed to talk to the rock? I think this is proof against what that person said.

On the other hand, this rule might only apply to real, original Avoda. I say this because we do find Horo’as Sha’ah to use Avoda Zara animals on a Bama. I think this was by Gilad.
