☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant
How can something be legal in NY if it’s a federal crime?
Is it not possible that the FDA has political motivations for not approving?
Also, what was edited?
December 30, 2015 9:05 pm at 9:05 pm in reply to: Genetically Engineered Animals and Kashrus #1119596☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIf you put lipstick on a fish, it’s still smells.
But it talks even more than it used to.
December 30, 2015 8:56 pm at 8:56 pm in reply to: Genetically Engineered Animals and Kashrus #1119593☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant“it’s not the reason that it’s kosher”
The Torah explicitly says that it is. Twice.
??? ??? ????????? ?????? ?????? ????????? ???? ?????? ??? ????????? ????????????? ????????? ??????????? ????????????? ????? ?????????:
??? ??? ????????? ?????? ?????? ????????? ???? ?????? ??? ????????? ????????????? ?????????:
So if I take fins and scales and implant them on a treifa fish, does that make it kosher?
December 30, 2015 7:40 pm at 7:40 pm in reply to: Genetically Engineered Animals and Kashrus #1119587☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantOK, so then for Ashkenazim, we’re back to the turkey question and your previous favorite answer doesn’t really help then.
We don’t retroactively asser it.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIt’s not just about having something in common, it’s about being compatible and being able to have a good marriage.
Say two people have hearing issues. You would say they have something in common, and that’s true. But what if they are different hashkafically, or one wants to live in a big city and the other hates big cities, or some other difference? Should they marry each other just because they have something in common?
December 30, 2015 5:01 pm at 5:01 pm in reply to: Answering work email while wife is in labor #1119621☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantMaybe you need an epidural
This thread is not that painful.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantOK, I think I got it. Are you saying that people need to be realistic that if they have issues, they’re generally only going to be set up with people with similar issues?
December 30, 2015 4:49 pm at 4:49 pm in reply to: Answering work email while wife is in labor #1119618☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI have a strange feeling this story isn’t true.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI don’t know, but enjoy them.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantShopping, not all issues were created equal.
December 30, 2015 3:39 pm at 3:39 pm in reply to: Genetically Engineered Animals and Kashrus #1119573☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantApy, my first question would be why they that an individual as Rav Hamachshir rather than a known organization.
December 29, 2015 10:31 pm at 10:31 pm in reply to: Just curious ����. What does everyone do for a living? #1119700☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWhy is it assur to cook shrimp?
December 29, 2015 8:26 pm at 8:26 pm in reply to: Are the girls causing their own shidduch crisis?? #1120668☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThen you need to clarify in a major way, because price is generally based on supply and demand. A retailer can’t raise his prices above market prices (for the market in which he’s competing in), on metalt’lin, but those prices are usually set by s&d, completely consistent with halachah.
A shadchan’s services, BTW, would not be subject to ona’ah.
December 29, 2015 7:50 pm at 7:50 pm in reply to: Are the girls causing their own shidduch crisis?? #1120666☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantYour first sentence is not true, which is not a stirah to your second sentence (which is partially true).
December 29, 2015 7:48 pm at 7:48 pm in reply to: Just curious ����. What does everyone do for a living? #1119698☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant(or on Yom Kippur)
December 29, 2015 7:47 pm at 7:47 pm in reply to: Just curious ����. What does everyone do for a living? #1119697☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant(or basar b’cholov)
December 29, 2015 7:47 pm at 7:47 pm in reply to: Just curious ����. What does everyone do for a living? #1119696☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant(on Shabbos)
December 29, 2015 7:46 pm at 7:46 pm in reply to: Just curious ����. What does everyone do for a living? #1119695☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIt’s assur for a man to cook.
December 29, 2015 7:31 pm at 7:31 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119186☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantGavra, I would guess so.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIt means you didn’t go to the user’s actual profile.
Is this what you were looking for?

December 29, 2015 6:58 pm at 6:58 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119181☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI don’t think anyone thinks 4″ is literal halacha
Unfortunately, that’s not true.
Sam, precise source, please?
ZD, lol.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantTell him – he neeeeeeds to know!
We promise, we won’t look, only popa will.
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participanthh should have said “nearly universal,” but it was implied.
I agree, and I wonder if, as hh suggests, it has become binding. I would think so.
December 29, 2015 5:39 pm at 5:39 pm in reply to: Just curious ����. What does everyone do for a living? #1119691☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWhat did you make?
I’m a diner. Last night I ate food.
December 29, 2015 5:34 pm at 5:34 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119169☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantNo, worse, they are examples of Halachos that are outright ignored.
That wasn’t the question.
I believe the ridiculousness of that Shittah was proven here.
I disagree.
December 29, 2015 5:05 pm at 5:05 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119165☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantAm I the only one who can’t make out shimen’s last post?
December 29, 2015 5:02 pm at 5:02 pm in reply to: Do You Allow Your Spouse To Read All Your E-Mails? #1120075☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantHow about text messages?
December 29, 2015 4:59 pm at 4:59 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119163☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantGavra, I don’t think zmanim or tzeddakah are examples of people thinking or saying it’s just a chumra.
Modifying to add homburg misses the point. Nobody thinks halachah specifies a specific type or types of hat.
December 29, 2015 4:54 pm at 4:54 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119161☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantNobody says it’s assur, so what’s your point?
December 29, 2015 4:52 pm at 4:52 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119159☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantZD, what about it? So there’s a difference of opinion.
December 29, 2015 4:44 pm at 4:44 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119156☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantGavra, they didn’t literally mean black fedoras. Wearing a hat is a reasonable discussion, but nobody really thinks it can’t be an up hat. 😉
Negiah is probably unfortunately true for many, I don’t know about zmanim and tzeddakah, can you be more specific?
I think the frummer MO people such as Sam and DaMoshe would say that negiah is not sanctioned in any official way, it’s just individuals.
December 29, 2015 4:37 pm at 4:37 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119152☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantBy the way knees should be covered is not chumreh….
He didn’t say knees covered, he said four inches.
December 29, 2015 4:36 pm at 4:36 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119151☕ DaasYochid ☕Participantmany forbid things like Sports, Music taken from Non-jewish sources, Many frown upon non-jewish foods.
Do many say they are literally forbidden, or object on hashkafic grounds?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantLol
December 29, 2015 4:00 pm at 4:00 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119141☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantGavra, 4″ is a good example. No pictures is pretty iffy, and black fediras is an outright straw man.
ZD, both straw men. Nobody I know thinks those are halachah (depending on what mode of dress you mean).
December 29, 2015 3:41 pm at 3:41 pm in reply to: MODERN ORTHODOXY: The Fundamental problems #1119136☕ DaasYochid ☕Participantmany things people say are Halchas are actually Chumras or hashkafas
For example?
And vice versa.
For example?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantTuition
December 29, 2015 3:19 pm at 3:19 pm in reply to: Are the girls causing their own shidduch crisis?? #1120659☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI should have started with the difference between “are” and “our” (from the marvelous thread “Is all the kvetching are own fault?” – which makes me gag not kvetch)
I’m sure that was intentional and that the effect was desired.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantLots of people with issues are married.
December 28, 2015 9:03 pm at 9:03 pm in reply to: Are the girls causing their own shidduch crisis?? #1120651☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWhy don’t you read my posts? I told you years ago that I read your posts, but I disagree with them.
You are saying that what Boaz did should be replicated. I am showing you from the gemara that you’re wrong.
Please don’t answer until you read my post!
December 28, 2015 1:50 pm at 1:50 pm in reply to: Do You Allow Your Spouse To Read All Your E-Mails? #1120049☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThat’s a good point.
I know quite a few people whose email address is shared (ex: [email protected]). When there’s an expectation that the spouse has access to the account, it’s fine.
December 28, 2015 6:26 am at 6:26 am in reply to: Are the girls causing their own shidduch crisis?? #1120646☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI wouldn’t say there’s absolutely no such thing, but based on not having what to talk about, or not being comfortable, I think it’s a mistake to not give it another chance.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI agree that having any “system” can have negative consequences for those outside the system, but overall, despite some silly (maybe that’s an understatement) cultural things, as I said, the kollel system has raised the bar for everyone.
I think if someone’s approach to learning is the same (I know a bunch of people who work but are in the beis medrash with chavrusas or learning themselves for hours a day, and Sundays and work holidays for longer) the kids will be just as well off. Those people would love to learn 12-14 hours every day, but can’t because they need to support their families. Shouldn’t everyone want to?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIf anyone had more to add to the answers already given to the OP, I’m sure they could have.
December 28, 2015 3:21 am at 3:21 am in reply to: Are the girls causing their own shidduch crisis?? #1120644☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantEveryone uses that as a reason that shidduchim should just go on and on and on- because it “might” work out.
Maybe they’re right. Anyhow, I didn’t take it that far, I only discussed a second date.
“we had nothing to talk about and sat there in awkward silence for two hours.”
Some of those have also worked out.
And you ignored my point that every time I said no after one date, the boy did, as well.
So, he also made a mistake to say no after one date.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI just don’t see why it’s necessary to make a “better” Torah home.
Forget necessary – is it better?
and as we’ve established, the side effects of that system are pernicious.
Speak for yourself; I never established that.
What about the main effects? What are they?
so is it your opinion that people who learn in kollel are frummer and better Yidden with better middos than people that don’t? It sounds like it.
It is absolutely my opinion and observation that people who learn more, kollel or otherwise, are on the whole (sure, with too many exceptions) bigger b’nei Torah, with all that encompasses. It so happens that the way our society is structured, there’s more opportunity to learn while in kollel, but it’s the learning itself which is the cause.
I don’t think it’s any kind of chiddush that learning Torah has a positive effect on a person or on his family.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantExcellence, here is a translation (from R’ M. Broyde) I found of part of that teshuvah:
[hearing the] shofar and [waving the] lulav and recite blessings [on these performances]
However, it is obvious that this applies only if her soul yearns to perform mitzvot, notwithstanding the fact that she is not commanded to perform them. However, since it is not with this intent but rather stems from her protest against God and His Torah this is not the act of a mitzvah at all; quite the opposite, [it is] a forbidden act, for she commits heresy, thinking it possible for the laws of the Torah to be changed even in a grave matter.
December 28, 2015 1:30 am at 1:30 am in reply to: Who composed the World Famous Sholom Aleichem? #1119726☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI believe the reason we object to the current songs is because of the musical style.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantHe calls them ?????? ?????. What does Rav Schachter call them?
December 28, 2015 1:19 am at 1:19 am in reply to: Do You Allow Your Spouse To Read All Your E-Mails? #1120043☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWhich part of my one word answer did you have trouble understanding?
The part which doesn’t fit his agenda.
