I apologize if my lashon offended anyone. It was a bit harsh. Perhaps I should have delivered my message softer.
A person who receives support, advantage, or the like, from another or others without giving any useful or proper return, as one who lives on the hospitality of others, is according to the lexicographers of Random House a parasite.
Who is funding kollel’im? Certainly not the sycophants that fawn over the new million-dollar man that is footing the bill.
What is anti-semitic? I pointed out that kollel has become for many a welfare system. Everybody is learning in kollel now. At one point in time it was reserved for the best and the brightest. Is this observation anti-semitic?
The true chillul hashem is when little Moishey is forced to use the Torah as a kardom, because his parents were impressively uneducated and failed to give him a proper chinuch. He is still learning in kollel to this day. If one is learning in kollel lo lishma, it is time to move on with life. The ultimate chillul hashem is using the mesorah as a kardom. The ultimate kiddush hashem is the professional that can support a kollel and give daf yomi simultaneously.
Kollel is a luxury. Kollel two years after marriage, lo kasha, this is a luxury. Perhaps it takes money to determine what is and is not a luxury.
I apologize in advance if my words offended anyone.
Moral of the story. Marry of adults, not children.
