Supply and demand. No one is forcing anyone to take the job.
And the camp is taking your child off your hands for the summer; isn’t that worth $150?
There are good reasons to support both sides.
“I quickly found myself bored by the shiur and left after about fifteen to twenty minutes”.
Wolf, I’m not with you on this one. First, the shiur was not so off the topic; they both dealt with Ishus. It’s not like the shiur was supposed to deal with Pesach but was changed to the Halachic Status of the Mustache.
Also, a good magid shiur/darasha should keep your attention no matter what the topic is and a bad one will put you to sleep, no matter what the topic is.
You got to be an idiot to marry one of them, an ?????? ????? ?????? , especially when there are so many wonderful Jewish Bais Yaakov girls around. This was basically a one time dispensation for a righteous soldier to satisfy his yetzer hara in battle, but the Torah discouraged him to marry her.
Those of us who are learn daf yomi (Chulin)now know what Rav Moshe zt’l meant when he stated in his t’shuva that Chalov Stam in the United States is like Chalov Yisroel and those who are a Baal Nefesh should drink the Chalov Yisroel.
So what is a Baal Nefesh? A Baal Nefesh is someone who goes beyond the Ikor Hadin which is determined by the reasoning of “Rove”, and follows that which is determined by “Mee’ute” which is lifnei m’shuras hadin.
Let’s not forget another tragedy. Aron’s parents and family have just had their worst nightmare actualized. You don’t wake up one day and become a child killer. They must have been suffering with him for most of his 35 years.
They did everything right; Aron went to yeshiva, to camp, had a bar mitzvah celebration with his Rav in attendance, everyone danced at his chasuna, and nebech he is a very very sick person and probably always was. So why was he born with this deranged brain; ask the third partner. And beware, because there are more around.
So sad. We suffer various kinds of tradegies every summer.
“Sadly, this is not the time of the Sanhedrin.”
And even if it were; no eidim and no hasra, he gets off.
Many don’t fold it at all…they sort of roll the talis and fold it after shabbos. According to the poskim who allow folding, it’s even on the crease because they hold that we are not experts today in knowing the art of folding that it should be so perfect.
“Personally, I know a few rabbanim who are meikil l’chatchila.”
That is, if you don’t count Rav Scheinberg shlita who holds that it’s a bizayon hatalis if you don’t fold it and put it away.
Health – “She is guilty beyond any reasonable doubt.”
You keep on saying that but there is no evidence at all that anyone did anything; only that Casey is an idiot.
Regarding your previous post; as much as we want to believe them, police are known to lie on the stand.
While Bais Din does a drisha v’chakira of the eidim to assure valid testimony; this does not rule out false witnesses.
Pikuach Nefesh overrides issurim, such as if you are a physician or Hatzalah member. Otherwise, cell phones must be turned off before entering a shul or attending a shiur.
Don’t assume anything. Some models will not have a soak cycle on the “no frills” end and you won’t notice it until after the unit is installed.
Generally, police testimony is given very little credence unless corroborated by other evidence. But what may occur at times in deliberations which result in contradictory verdicts for various charges, is that some jury members may be in favor of a guilty verdict on the most severe charges and others may want an acquittal on these charges, so an unofficial compromise is reached to convict on lesser charges.
However, all prejudices and preconceived notions are left outside the room. The panel will consider only the evidence before it and will make no assumptions. It is no wonder that many jailed individuals have been released many years after the crime when new technology becomes available to prove their innocence.
oomis1105 – read my post, there was no tape in her mouth.
“true anniyim display humility”
Real anniyim do not have azus and that is why a collector is a fake if he demands more money or if he throws back your money.
“A dead body with tape in her mouth”
Listen to the testimony of the medical examiner. There was no duct tape in her mouth. There was duct tape found with the skeleton remains. There was also a plastic bag found with the bones. There was no scientific proof presented at the trial which indicated that she was murdered, only circumstantial speculation, or guessing by the medical examiner. Laboratory testing of the remains produced no scientific evidence of murder. It’s no wonder that the jury acquitted Casey.
Using a cell phone during davening or when a Rav is giving a shiur (whether answering it or texting or looking at the text) is worse than those kids who text on Shabbos. The exception of course is Pikuach Nefesh.
Another descriptive word that I had for Casey which the Mod kindly deleted was slang for an individual with loose morals.
Mod, all I said was that the OJ case was very different since he had loads of physical evidence pointing at him. And that with Casey, all you have is the behavior of a selfish lying lowlife; but that’s not murder.
No, she’s not Jewish, so why are we so surprised at the way they conduct themselves? Even with Yidden, many a shiva house is turned into a moshav leitzim.
Shoprite spring water is $0.79 – $0.89 cents a gallon. Check your bottled water as many are merely filtered tap water (purified water) and not spring water.
“..but how did she know for sure the child was dead, unless she killed her herself?”
Casey did not testify, so we don’t know anything from her directly.
“Who says?”
Logic says.
“What physical evidence?”
Exactly, a guilty person will leave some type of physical evidence, and there was none.
As I said above, the job of a defense attorney is to place doubt in the minds of the jury. Casey did not perjure herself on the stand; her attorney did a good job and she was found not guilty. Yes, Casey did not act like a Bas Yisroel, but she was not on trial for that.
MDG is correct; circumstantial evidence is valid for conviction of an Aino-Yehudi.
Chaverim should be call Malochim. Sms007, you are married to a maloch.
Casey did not sit shiva, but that does not make her guilty. Some people cannot cope with personal tragedy and go into denial and act accordingly.
If it was a premeditated murder, Casey certainly would have acted the grieving mother part.
And it doesn’t appear that Casey was that sophisticated to dispose of all physical evidence.
Things have gotten too shticky.
Was there also an engraved return card; or was she only invited to the chuppa?
For those who remember, it was simply called “The five and ten”. Woolworths in New York; Authenrites in Pennsylvania.
The predecessor to the 99 Cent Store was the 69 Cent Store (70’s).
Then there was Odd Job, Webers and G&Sons.
But my favorite all time discount store is Amazing Savings.
anon1m0us – “I stand by my statements that 1) There are enough of the male and female genders for everyone. 2) People need to expand their dating circles beyond their 4 amos.”
You make a lot of sense with this and all your statements.
S’fardim may have a different minhag.
Something smells funny.
Goq – one can use the same excuses for anything and everything; i.e. “You don’t understand, I need to work on Shabbos. Or, you don’t understand, I can’t give Tzedaka. Or, I can’t get married right now.”
But that’s not Yiddishkeit. Yiddishkeit is having trust in Hashem’s promises that when you do your part, Hashem will look after you no matter what.
I’m back and I hope the Mod will let this through.
Singles, don’t sell yourselves short! It’s never as bad as it appears. I know because I was there. No money, no parents at the wedding which was extremely basic and small; I felt so alone. Actually, you don’t really need a lot of money to marry and when I did, we did not have the organizations which exist today that help the chosen and Kallah to get started.
Feel down and depressed and alone? There is a girl out there who will be there for you and you for her. But don’t look for a stereotypical Hollywood type; there are a lot of frum women who would love to marry a kind and sensitive person such as you.
So it is my sincere belief that you have very little to lose and everything to gain by making the move and sharing the rest of your years, happy and with your life long companion.
Deleted.
Please reference the title of this thread.
None of my posts are designed to be hurtful. Can you honestly say that we not advocate shmiras shabbos to persistent “frum” shabbos violators because it’s offensive? And we make special threads for them? And give them special privileges? And if you disagree, your mandate is to stifle my posts?
adorable – If my posts weren’t being deleted, you would know that my comments are directed at most men only, and not all men. Females are the victims and have my heartfelt concerns.
Edited
Will this post be deleted as well?
Yes
(BTW,It was not 95 that deleted your two posts.)
I left the other posts up because they were reasonable. And although they caused some anguish here they were not designed to be hurtful. This was not the case with the two deleted posts.
No issur at all.
These are all teirutzim, excuses, and confirm what I stated.
I hate to say it, but you guys sound like another group of individuals who have banded together for acceptance.
Note: This post allowed through despite its offensive content to show how absurd this poster’s position is. -95
Sounds like you want to take your marbles and go home.
“you should consider the possibility that you are wrong”
Wrong about what? Wrong about strongly advising single men to get married? I do it all the time and no one has taken offense. I do it because I know it’s the right thing for them to do. Wrong that I don’t consider them a group to be pampered and appeased? They deserve more credit than that.
Bad example. Chana did the right thing; she did marry and tried to have a family.
I have had singles coming to my table for decades, and are still coming. I know singles and they feel very comfortable being with me in my home. And as much as I love them and feel their pain, I still believe I am correct.
Any day that I don’t have to go in and work with the chaleryaz is a Tom Yov for me.
Then I couldn’t disagree with you more.
Life is hard for everyone but the Torah does not want you to use that as a reason to exclude yourself from the tzibor. There are always legitimate cases that are the exception, but they are not an example to follow.
Popa_bar_abba: “Isn’t it enough to be single in real life, why do you need to be single on YW also?”
Popa, I couldn’t agree with you more.
In general, there’s a single’s mentality that become established and makes it all the more comfortable for singles to remain single.
There is a reason why the Ashkenazi custom is that a never married male does not merit wearing a talis, nor can he be a shaliach tzibor on the yomim norayim, and other instances where only married men are permitted to be included in Jewish rites. The point is that a male who has not married is not a completed person; not in learning, not in his avodah and not in his sensitivity to the suffering of others. And there is a selfishness and a “me” orientation with single males.
So no one is doing singles a favor by providing them additional comfort zones, such as: their own minyanim in shuls, special discounts in shul dues, their own thread in the CR, etc. They need to feel that their behavior is not ok and they will only find acceptance when they marry and become mainstreamed into the general frum population.
There are numerous fine frum women who would love to marry a frum fellow. Find one and marry her.
And if you only ate lokshin and never had steak, you would be happy with what you have since you wouldn’t know any better.
Chalav Yisroel Ice Cream costs more.
A George Forman is not a grill; no grill flavor…more like a baked flavor.
If guys insist on a skinny girl, give ’em a skinny girl and get fat again after marriage.
Can’t beat Allure Homme Sport.
“cherrybim, Shoprite sells CY ice cream? Which?”
Shoprite sells the regular cholav yisroel brands but they are never on sale so they are, therefore, not my favorites.
Also, regular cholav yisroel ice cream does not come in most of the flavors made by the other ice cream brands.
Shoprite has a terrific sale on ice cream all the time, each week with a different major brand. The brand on sale for the week that I buy is my favorite.
