qwerty: The debate is over because Shmei couldn’t and/or wouldn’t answer Candace Owens’ question.
I may be mistaken, but haven’t you said in the past that the debate is over for a number of reasons. Maybe you should apply to become a mod, but in the meantime using language like “the debate is over” is infantile.
And I still don’t see why we should care at all about a question asked by CO yemach shema. We reject yoshke because he was a rasha (as is CO). We also don’t generally believe in a second coming, but according to one explanation given by Rashi in Sanhedrin 98b, Daniel, who has most definitely died, may return as Mashiach. So there is that possibility in regards to Daniel.
We mainstream Yidden also reject the suggestion that the LR is Mashiach, and for any number of reasons, as I have outlined in posts on earlier threads.
The Lubavichers aka the Three Stooges use the phantasmagoric as fact to substantiate their idolatrous beliefs and Benedict ARSo
I prefer Quisling.
appears to be joining their ranks.
For those of you who may not be aware of qwerty’s logic, because I know a little how to learn a gemoro with the Rashi on it, and I have come to the conclusion – supported by the Rif on Ein Yaakov, and apparently cited by Artscroll – that there is an opinion that Yaakov Avinu is still alive, I am on Menachem’s phantasmagoric and idolatrous side in all arguments.
I have a question for you. If I agree with Menachem’s spelling on a certain word, or if I like the way he divides his posts into paragraphs, and I then touch your wine, will it become stam yainam or actual yayin nesech?
ARSo
ARSo?! What happened to Benedict?
is now convinced that Yaakov Avinu is still alive. Let him tell that to his Rav. The Rav won’t ask if he took his meds, he’ll have him put away.
Tell me, in your great humility and non-arrogance (not to mention your amazing writing style) have you now been forced to reveal that you have Ruach Hakodesh? You have no idea who my Rav/Rebbe is, yet you know what he will ask and what he will do! I think I’ll drop him and start coming to you for advice etc.
Yes, the Torah(Tanach, Gemara, Midrash, etc. is replete with references to the supernatural, but it’s our job to discern the truth within. Generally speaking, we’re expected to eschew the fantastic in favor of the mundane. Hameivin yavin.
Yep, hameivin yavin. And that clearly excludes you!
To the rest of the onlookers, am I totally out of the ball park when I think that qwerty has ‘certain unpleasant’ issues?
