Reply To: What is up with "yeneh machalah"?

depends what kind of communal project you’re talking about. I just heard a speech by a famous rabbi we all know and love, who said that cancer, if you think about it, is ONE CELL IN THE BODY THAT DOESN’T GET ALONG WITH THE OTHERS CUZ ITS DIFFERENT. IF WE’D STOP BEING SO STUCK UP AND JUDGMENTAL AND WE START BEING KIND TO PEOPLE AND HELPING PEOPLE, NO MATTER WHO THEY ARE, EVEN IF THEY ARE DIFFERENT, THAT CAN STOP CANCER OR YENE MACHLA OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT. WE HAVE TO STOP JUDGING PPL JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE SICK, THEY LOOK FUNNY, THEY AREN’T AS FRUM, AREN’T AS WEALTHY ETC ETC…HASHEM DOESN’T DIFFERENTIATE LIKE THAT. SO WE HAVE TO STOP DOING IT TOO. that’s also a communal project, and it could prevent cancer. doesn’t hurt to try…
