mdd1 – Ujm, I personally know an Israeli who went to the army frei and came out a Ba’al Teshuva in a black yarmulke. Etc.
And I know of a bochur who was trafficked as a slave to an Egyptian house of depravity, eventually was framed and sent to jail for 12 years, and emerged as one of the greatest tzaddikim of all time… I don’t know what color Yarmulke he wore. What is your point? There is at least one documented case of a woman who fell more than 10,000 feet from a plane that broke apart and lived to tell about it. Do you want to try that too?
