Charlie, here are plenty of self appointed publicity hounds who think they are doing the right thing ranging for the JDO on one end to Neturie Karta on the other.
Charlie, please explain the difference if any between Avi Weiss, Mordechai Levy or Moshe Ber Beck, they are all publicity hungry lunatics who thrive on getting under peoples skin.
why troll? or are you still ad delo yohah?
What does RCA, Young Israel and Agudah have in common? they all don’t legitimize the ordination of Chovivai Torah
AAQ, the common denominator of Avi Weiss and Bobby Fisher is both are / were Jewish and suffered from untreated mental health problems.
@ Nishtdan, some are tenkos the rest are lehasisWe had a fun and joyous purim seudah, we tried to cater 127 different cuisines but the caterer was unable to accommodate so we stuck with Hungarian stuffed cabbage, corn beef, and kugel.
@AAQ we didnt do sisha ragliaim we did shtay ragliam with rekudim.
We were visited by the local code enforcement to complain the gallows was a none conforming use and it exceeded height requirements, I told them that I retained CTLawyer and they left us alone.@AAQ, we are fully mask compliant for 24 hours, full face mask preferred, Just tried on my Dr. R Levine / Dr. Brackish Okun costume
@reb e, I did many term papers and two thesis that required a ton of research yet I still will seek out advice, lman hasholem I an dropping this topic and wish you simchas purim.
@reb e, with all due respect, I am not the one going around giving gratuitious opinions on how to pasken shailos BECAUSE I DEFER TO A RAV, I also defer to a lawyer / CPA/ MD. etc. The most you will see me do is give my opinion of politics or current events
AAQ,” actually 4 amot is about 6 reglaim or 2 meters …. basically privacy is as far as you can spit”
Exactly my point, reglaim is never mentioned in the torah, its a made up word@Reb e, the only thing that is bigger then your ignorance is your self aggrandizement, you should seek some help, whoops I forgot you don’t ask other peoples opinions
Avi Weiss always suffered from untreated mental health problems except that most of his people call it activism instead.
I am going to dress up as Dr. R Levine Dep. Secty. of HHS, the only problem is that some of the people who I showed it to thought it was Dr. Brakish Okun from Independence Day.
Our shul where where masks are generally optional is strongly encouraging everyone to wear full face mask of their favorite villan of 2020.@Yid1818, You want to do tshuva? stopping being a internet troll and open a yiddish sefer, every time time you post its of the trollish nature, now I know your a bored bucher but this is getting stale.
@reb E how about asking him [the rav] in the first place?
@Jackk, Sorry but John Sullivan of Utah is a Antifa and was arrested, that being said I think that the riot is a HUGH stain in our history.
“The coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. We are in contact with everyone and all relevant countries.CDC and world health have been working hard and very smart.”
Amazing how it took less then a month ROFL@Charlie Hall
“We are cooking Indian food because India is specifically mentioned in Megillat Esther.
In the past we have cooked Persian food
One of these days I will learn to cook Ethiopian food.”
FYI Kush was in Sudan/ Egypt, not Ethiopia
And you would need to cook 127 different types of cuisines@AAQ, I didn’t ask this shailoah to my Rav because it was not an issue for me, I have been davening indoor since May 2020, and when we davened outdoors the person saying kaddish said them all with no issues, just as I always ask for guidance from a Rav for halacha limiysah I dont ask “ah be tzu fragin”.
My issue is people jumping to conclusions without spending 5 minutes calling a rav to find out if they are doing is khalacah.
@Reb E, when you are at the level of learning of the Dayanim in Moshe Rabbaniu time you should have no issue of paskening your own shalios, even if your at the level of a contempary posek of our time, Rav Moshe Feinstein, Rav Moshe Bick, Rav Wosner, Rav Elyasiv, The Stipeler ZTL etc. etc. then you can pasken your own shailos@Reb E, a smart person is someone who is bitul his own yesh and relies on his ruv for guidance in halacha ie Moshe Rabbanu and Yshua ben Nun etc., I don’t have the azus to pasken shalois especialy in regards to halacha such as not saying a kaddish
@ CharlieHall, ” he and Manchin tried to get a gin control bill through Congress” how very purimdik, lol
@AAQ, “but what about bein adam l’havero? shisha reglaim as by CDC, or is it hukas goyim?” Sorry but not farmilar with a measurement called reglaim, the torah only uses tefachim and amos.
as to bein adam lchavero, the goverment has never been your chaver except maybe in Russia where everyone was a comrade.
Size of the party is permitted as per US Supreme Court rulingYup a much of amaratzim pakening their own shailos, an even better idea encapsulated your whole house and protect it with a electric fence, I am not paskening just giving a eitzah, just my gesture of ahavas yisroel.
Amarizim who think they know how to learn are rightfully canceled
@AAQ, I asked a shialah and told to make it gevoah chameshim amos
@rational Try tuning up your car or replacing your own roof, its less dangerous paskening and not being qualified.
@yt, well duh!
@Godal: Lets see, Dems who were out of town during a crises? not hard to find
1. Dinkins at a tennis match clueless at about the Crown Heights riots [or so he claimed]
2. Bloomberg [ a dem who flew under a GOP flag of convivence] in Bermuda during a major snow storm.
3. DeBlazio out of the country during a heavy snowstorm.
4. DC Mayor Berry at the Superbowl during a 4 feet snowstorm
just some quick examples@Reb E,
Does reading some medical journals make you and expert on infectious diseases?
Does reading case law make you capable of arguing a case before the US Supreme Court?
Does learning some seforim make you capable of paskening shailos?
the answer is a resounding NO on all 3.We are going to have a huge sudah like achavorosh with everyone showing up and drinking whatever they want, then we take a loudmouth feminist and dispatch her, then we we take a break and fast for a while, we then will set up a gallows in our back yard and hang up some people and then party again
@Reb E and AAQ, my Rav is a bucky bshas and has 3 heter horas and certainly does not waste his time on the internet, he sits and learns in his every free moment, yet when it comes to a serious issue like skipping a kaddish for whatever reason he would not hesitate to ask a rav who is on the next level just to make sure his reasoning is correct.
The laissez-faire attitude of I can open a sefer and pasken for myself when it effects others is a sure sign of amahrztitz.
PS As to the motivation ever heard of the expression “the road to hell is paved with good intentions”@Reb E, why burden your Dentist or Car Mechanic you can do it yourself
@GH lets see the bigger hypocrite is: “What is more hyprocacy is Cruz preaching small government, self-reliance, neighbors helping neighbors, etc. When the going get tough in Texas, the tough get going (to Cancun) leaving their neighbors and constituents to freeze in the Dark.”

Just ten random examples of Democratic hypocrites in the fight against covid.
Please be intellectually honest and admit the above ten are the bigger hypocrites.@gadol, lets assume you 100% right on this what is the common denominator to Cruz flying to Mexico? and how does that make him a hypocrite?
I listed over 60 instances of various Democratic elected offices [ President, Senators, Congress people, Governors, Mayors Etc. who preach one thing and practiced the complete opposite in regards to Covid, NOW THAT IS TEXTBOOK HYPROCACY@Reb E, do you also do DIY root canal or limit yourself to paskening your own shailos?
@charlie hall,
“Cruz has opposed efforts to make Texas power suppliers and T&D companies in the ERCOT portions of the state, comply with the same reliability requirements as non-ERCOT Texas utilities and those in the other 47 states subject to FERC jurisdiction.”
Energy deregulation was pushed by both parties in Texas including Gov. Ann Richards, Around 1992 Texas governor Ann Richards started planning policy and technical initiatives for renewable energy, convinced that most of the previous attempts at energy independence had been little more than “a declaration of war in one place or another.”
Richards’ initiatives fed into the 1999 state electric market deregulation, signed by then-governor GW Bush, which included a 2,000 MW target for wind energy. By 2005, then-governor Rick Perry signed a bill that more than tripled the requirement with a goal of 2015.
So hardly a GOP plot.
And you have yet to respond to the very long long long list of Democat Covid hypocrites.
PS there are millions of NE snowbirds who are guilty of the same the that Cruz did, flee bad weather@Reb Elizer, that’s very nice and how that have anything to do with the subject at hand of skipping kaddish without ask a shaila?
Huju, you want hypocrisy? here is a long list of Dems:

Far different then the liberal pols who were preaching social distance and no travel and doing the opposite. here is two prime examples:
Exhibit #1
The finance minister for Canada’s most populous province resigned Thursday after going on a Caribbean vacation during the pandemic and seemingly trying to hide the fact by sending social media posts showing him in a sweater before a fireplace.Ontario Premier Doug Ford said he had accepted Rod Phillips’s resignation as minister hours after Phillips returned home from a more than two-week stay on the island of St. Barts despite government guidelines urging people to avoid nonessential travel.
“Travelling over the holidays was the wrong decision, and I once again offer my unreserved apology,” Phillips said in a statement confirming his resignation.
In a video posted on Twitter on Christmas Eve, the sweater-wearing finance minister was shown drinking eggnog beside a fireplace with a gingerbread house and a little Christmas tree.
“I want to thank every one of you for what we are doing to protect our most vulnerable,” Phillips said about Ontarians hunkered down at home because of the pandemic over the Christmas holidays.
But Phillips himself had been enjoying a Caribbean vacation since Dec. 13 on St. Barts, a French island popular with the rich and famous, even as his Twitter account had suggested he was in snowbound Ontario.
Opposition parties and health officials had called for Phillips to be fired from Cabinet. One party released video of a Zoom call showing Phillips participating — also while wearing a sweater — with a picture of the legislature as his backdrop, but with sounds like waves heard in the background.
The incident created a political problem for Ford, who acknowledged on Wednesday he knew Phillips was outside the country before it became public because Ford said he called Phillips “shortly after he arrived” in the Caribbean.
Ontario began a province-wide lockdown on Saturday and Ford has been blaming travelers for bringing the new coronavirus to the province.
“This is a devastating blow to the government and Ford personally because, as he has admitted, he knew that Phillips was in St. Bart’s and did not upbraid and order him back immediately,” said Nelson Wiseman, a political science professor at the University of Toronto. “Ford only did so once the news of Phillips’s absence became public,.”
Exhibit #2
More political fallout as a result of these exclusive photos FOX 11 obtained showing Governor Gavin Newsom attending an expensive dinner party. Tonight, we’re learning more about who else was at that party including two top California medical officials.Not only do they call into question Governor Newsom’s explanation that the dinner was outside they also reveal that two high-level members of the California Medical Association were there at the dinner with the governor and has become a national symbol of do as I say, not as I do.
FOX 11 spoke to Jamie Court about the photos and said, “Well I was shocked, first of all, that they were so close together, and it didn’t appear they were outside.”
Court is president of the progressive organization Consumer Watchdog and his shock didn’t end with what he saw in the photos, but who he saw in them.A closer look reveals that Janus Norman a top lobbyist for the California Medical Association who is sitting right next to Governor Newsom.
On Newsom’s other side is the CEO of the California Medical Association Dustin Corcoran.
Neither of them, as a matter of fact, no one at the table was wearing a mask or social-distancing despite the CMA funding an ad campaign this year urging people to wear masks.Court says, “The message is to forget the pandemic, sit as close as you can, no face-coverings, no masks, no social-distancing, this is the state’s medical association, they speak for the doctors in the state, and their chief lobbyist and the president are sitting shoulder to shoulder with the governor as though its’ any time in American history not in the time of a pandemic.”
@AAQ, how far do you take this lunacy?
Do you DIY root canal after read a manual??
Do you DIY auto repair after reading a manual?
Do you attempt to repair major appliances after reading a manual?
Do you build your own house after reading a manual?
Or do you just limit yourself to paskening your own shailosThe gematria of the yeshiva world coffee room is the same as free exchange of thoughts and opinions.
Ah Frelichen Purim to allInteresting choice of a hobby, but each to his/her own
@Ct Lawyer, as a officer of the court you know the term of Caveat emptor, so anyone who sends the children to yeshiva knows the compliance or lack there of
Or about let each yeshiva make it own rules and everybody else butt out
@AAQ,
“Still this is funny, as apparently you subscribe to Daas Torah and I do not”
This has nothing to do with “Dass Torah” that you unartfully put down, this has everything to do with deferring to someone who knows the subject matter better then you do.
I don’t sign a contract before a a lawyer reviews it even though I deal with torts daily as per of my job,
I would not buy a house before I check it out with a check it out by a stuctual engineer even with my engineering degree because that is not my focus of my specialization.
I don’t read a manual on root canal and do it myself or read a repair manual and fix my own car, I defer to Endodontist and trained mechanic on my make of car.Like it or not, a Rabbi is a expert in Halacha and each case is different, I am proud to acknowledge my limitation and I strongly suggest you put your ego aside and do the same.
@always ask, “a good question – when do we need to ask, and whom? I heard and read enough questions about kaddish that I don’t see my situation as unique or risky. These questions do not seem to depend on the particular person, unless someone is uniquely OCD or disorganized …”
I assume you run your life where there are shades of gray the same way, a quick read and dont consult an expert.
