Joseph:
I will stop responding to your ridiculous baseless accusations towards me in your comments. You have demonstrated a propensity to put words into my mouth, then challenge them with the implied accusations of my being anti-halacha. That is pure rubbish, and you should be ashamed of yourself for such gibberish. I am not, not have I ever been, a proponent of secular courts over beis din. I am not soft about mesira and arkaos. I only listen to your accusations with the words of the gemora where the Tanna or Amora states יהא חלקי בין מי שחושדין אותו ואין בו.
Yes, those cases that are ajudicated in courts as per Shulchan Aruch are exceptions, not the rule. I have abserved many cases going to court, and only support that when there has been a direct psak beis din or poskim. Other cases get there with heter via Shulchan Aruch. While these are exceptional, many are not rare occurrences.
Have I ever discussed you scenario of a bounced check? Or did you concoct that to insinuate that I would run to court, and then complain about my anti-halachic behavior? Come on, a bit of honesty here. There is white collar crime that can qualify as מצער את הציבור, and could warrant intervention of the secular courts. personally, I have never had any such involvement, neither directly or indirectly. But it has happened, and I was privy to discussions among poskim on the subject.
So your efforts to paint me on the wrong side of halacha are both dishonest as well as foolish. I will not engage in further dialogue with you on this. My time can be spent on things with real value.
