“watch the way you talk to me.”
All of the ruder statements I made were direct paraphrases from your previous post. What goes around, comes around. And anyways, I have preciously little respect for those openly advocating against the Shulchan Orach.
“im not saying dont follow halacha. the halacha is NOT to get drunk”
Wrong. The halacha is absolutely to get drunk. And if you are telling people not to get drunk, you are telling people to ignore the halacha. Sorry, no two ways about it.
“The halacha is ad dlo yodah! go ahead have a drink! but dont intoxicate yourself.”
Tell me, what exactly do the words “ad di’lo yodah” mena? It means drink until you have no idea what’s happening. Sounds like getting intoxicated to me.
“tell me something how old are you? are you one of those people who find it cool to drink?”
What difference does it make? This halacha applies to every jewish male over the age of 13, whether they think it’s “cool” or whether they think it’s nauseating. We must follow the halacha. Period.
