why does Yeshiva World block swearing and Obscene comments which is arguably only an issur derabanan according to some but neglect to block a definate min hatorah prohibition of lashon harah…… for lashon harah to be permitted there are seven conditions>>> “t music from an impure place ” who are you to say that. like story of Acher” who according to one peshat cut up innocent people, its ironic you mention him as the gemarah in chagigah recounts how he went off because a greek tune never left his lips, carlebach did not allow people into his choir who listened to non jewish music. all other cases of lashon harah i fully condemn, us mortals should not specualte pesakim of gedolai hador we follow, this is the primary reason that coffee rooms should not be seen as an orthodox tool as it is a nesting ground for lashon harah, i heard directly from a person who used to spend a lot of time with carlebach that shlomo once told of a frum person for coming to one of his concerts, he told him that the concerts are for people who need to learn aleph beis, this bachur told him he came to have “fun” and carlebach got very anoyed when he understood his intentions, soon after he went to a side room with him and was there for 2and half hours, later this bachur left with red eyes from crying he had been suicidal that night and carlebach saved him…. but the point is that the concerts where on a lower level to connect with people at that level… i have pleny more to say on that story but thats the headlines.
