Daas Yachid: “As far as serving the state, if you mean State, then i’m sure by now you realize that the founding of a secular state in E.Y. is a very painful thing to us.
I don’t understand. So you don’t agree with the state. No one forces you to live there. This isn’t Russia, you can move. I doubt most of you were born before 1948, so the state was there when you were born. What does that have to do with obeying the law of the land? I thought you believed in dina d’malchusa dina. Perhaps you don’t?
Daas Yachid: “If you mean contributing to the welfare of its inhabitants, need I remind you how Chaza”l categorize one who doesn’t believe that lomdei Torah contribute?”
Yes, please remind me. I am aware that in Sefer Bereishis, Yaakov Avinu did things for the general population which were not even Jewish. Are you on a higher level than he was?
