Cherrybim, where can I find R’ Moshe’s heter?
Sam2, I am referring to digitally altered recordings having the din of instruments, not to considering any playback of a recording of the human voice to be an instrument, which is indeed a minority opinion.
(The pun was not intended, but it works.)
Pba, some (most? all?) poskim hold that it has a din of music.
Correct, Goq, not at all pimple.
Josh, the declaration was read the day before the mandate was set to expire.
How often doed it actually come out on 5? The last few years, it hasn’t.
(Yes, that was me.)
I know of families that had to take on major loans in order to pay for the ring
Can anyone tell me how much a typical ring goes for?
147, a gutten chodesh to you too.
73, yes, but as he points out, he has a signature style.
ICOT,
1) Maybe I’ll try it. The thread I referred to is not required to be clicked on before signing on.
2) 🙂
The minhag hamakom is to violate every single rule in the “[sticky] [closed] ****RULES OF THE YWN COFFEE ROOM – PLEASE READ**** thread.
He’s been quite busy. The mods were asleep for a bit, but seem right on top of it now.
I assume there’s an “I agree to abide by the conditions…” button
1) Where?
2) I’ve never heard of “kinyan clickiya”.
In other words, if the ones who set 5 Iyar knew A’T BA’SH, there is absolutely zero mathematical significance.
See, all of these zionistic days lead to “kochi v’otzem yadi”.
Sam, I think closing that thread kind of backfired. 😉
Thank you for that info, ZD.
We should say Hallel with two brachos (at least) to commemorate the day Dan’s Deals opened.
But it’s not a celebration. It’s a random date to commemorate.
I thought we agreed that it wasn’t “random”.
BTW, I forgot to quote your words in my last post. My words,
“Yes, I believe that is true. If the focus was on the “gevurah”, I would rethink trumpeting my disagreement.”
were in response to,
“if you were ever in any Dati Le’umi or “Modern Orthodox” day school, you’d know that the entire day is somber and about the deceased and the survivors, not about the fighting.”.
Please understand though, that chareidim take holocaust commemoration no less seriously than other Yidden; plenty of books have been written, videos released, and programs run in yeshivas and Bais Yaakovs. Holocaust studies are an important part of our kids education. We just don’t specify a day other than 9 b’Av, and recognize, and care about, the fact that the date which was chosen was not at all random, but nefarious.
It was easy. I googled “incorrigible”.
Pashtus according to many Rishonim (though not all) is that there is no Inyan to learn 30 days before any holiday except for Pesach and Sukkos. Also, if I recall correctly there are a few Rishonim (maybe only one?) who say that there is no Mitzvah to learn 30 days before a Yom Tov D’Rabannan (assuming that such a thing exists).
I certainly don’t recall any rishonim who say to learn the halachos of Yom Haatzmaut.
Today all is takes is $1500 for an plane ticket and you are there in 12 hours
Maybe we should celebrate the 28th of Kislev.
You can make gematria do whatever you want it to. A gematria is true if the idea behind it is true, and meaningless if the idea it represents is a sheker, despite the numbers matching.
Sam2, I just meant that 147’s profile includes many references to Yom Haatzmaut.
Writersoul,
It was popa’s idea to bump them, and I bumped another three or four.
It should be fun to have seven threads about the same subject going on at the same time. 🙂
?
DY. Do you know that this particular person is not deserving of these accolades?
No, I have no idea one way or the other, and I should have said so. I apologize.
bump
bump
bump
bump
…please link to some old threads about this then close this one. This is clearly just to start fights.
I agree.
and, of course,
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/why-i-hate-yom-haatmaut
🙂
That doesn’t mean that I should grossly disrespect those who died and survived by trumpeting my disagreement with the seculars on this issue.
I agree with that. As I wrote, I am appalled at the possibility that some severely “misguided” (to use a too forgiving term) individuals made a BBQ davka on Yom Hashoah, davka near Yad Vashem.
Yes, I believe that is true. If the focus was on the “gevurah”, I would rethink trumpeting my disagreement.
But the choice of dates still has a treif’e mekor.
Gavra, to tell you the truth, I don’t really know what those who hold it’s a chiyuv hold; I suspect that it’s not literally an ikuv, it’s just an extremely important aspect, with more than just medical purposes attached to it.
DY – you wrote ” the Zionists theme of Kochi veotzem yodi” So you were indeed talking about Zionists rather than Zionism.
I distinguish between those Zionists who ascribe to the Zionist theme of kv”y and those who try not to. I believe that all Zionists are in error for associating with Zionism.
I am also not merely repeating what I have been “conditioned” to believe, I have seen too much pride in the strength of the Israeli armed forces to deny this theme’s existence.
Why? After all, if it is part of the Mitzva then it needs to be done by a Bar Hachei?
Who said anything about not being a bar hachei? You are assuming (I think) that Avraham Avinu didn’t do MBP because it’s a physical impossibility; even so, I am tayning, he could have had someone else (maybe Eliezer) do it.
I say buy what you can afford, but buy real.
Yeah, I hate the imaginary stuff. It’s so overpriced.
Onions
Onions? Vos epis onions? (for popa)
Small and significantly limited is still too much in the view of many
You misread that. It’s the evidence which is small and significantly limited, not the amount of herpes cases caused by MBP, none of which were proven.
Perhaps we sould NOT use pesukim to learn halacha?
In a vaccuum? Absolutely not! (and you know that, so I’m surprised at you)
In case you’re going to be really stubborn about this, I’ll point out two things (there are more):
1) Those who require MBP also learned Chumash.
2) MBP doesn’t have to be performed by the mohel, it can be someone else.
In case anyone missed it (and popa’s link to it):
Sam2, if it were pikuach nefesh as you erroneously state, nothing would make it considered “necessary”.
It would be assur to drive to the zoo with your kids, because it’s not strictly necessary.
We have a Havtacha from HKBH that Mitzvos won’t be life-threatening
You should retract your opinion, because some hold that MBP is part of the mitzvah.
I find it ironic that you think this is the stupidest thing PBA has ever said.
ZD, However I do not belive that video tells anything or if it even occured on Yom Hashoa. It was likely done to inflame Anti-Haredi Sentiment
Your even-handedness is noted and appreciated.
Decide who you want to live with, not who you DONT want to live with
Well said.
MCP and interjection, why is the standard “going off”? I have much higher aspirations for my kids than that they merely “don’t go off”.
Frumnotyeshivish, part of my job as a vertical mechanech is to shield my kids from the things they shouldn’t be exposed to.
If I don’t guide then to a pure environment to the best if my abilities, I am being neglectful in my role as a vertical guide.
Gavra:Can’t do that. If the parent wants to give his/her child a fighting chance in this crazy world, who are we to tell them no? Especially if no other school will take them, you may as well send the child off to be a monk.
If the parents are not likely to expose their kids to the things which I don’t want to have my kids, in turn, exposed to, then I’m not advocating exclusion. If they are, then it’s their own choices which are “not giving their kids a fighting chance”.
Please don’t forget my disclaimer; I am assuming there is another shook for that child.
RABBAIM, no one in this discussion is advocating dividing schools according to kollel/non kollel lines.
PBA: Safek Sakanah is a Kol Shehu. Even Echad Mini Elef.
Don’t drive then; for that matter, don’t leave the house. I certainly hope that you don’t light Shabbos or Chanukah candles.
Yichusdik and Artchill, I am not talking about soldiers or even Zionists. I am talking about Zionism, which is pretty much institutionalized kochi v’otzem yadi.
