☕ DaasYochid ☕

Daas, that’s only chumash, and it’s bedieved; the rambam says it’s better not to do it, but if she does, she gets schar. For anything else, the rambam doesn’t say that she gets schar at all in the context of limud hatorah, and it’s in fact assur to teach Torah shrle baal peh.

If she gets schar, it’s obviously a mitzvah. She’s eina metzuvah v’osah, but regardless, it’s a mitzvah (like mitzvah aseh shehazman grama). The Ranbam is not mechalel between Torah shvaal peh and Torah shebichsav in this regard.

The fact that we shouldn’t be teaching them is a separate point which doesn’t negate the first point. The chiluk between Torah shebichsav and Torah shbaal peh is said regarding this din of teaching her.

Avirah, there is a mitzvah, just not a chiyuv (except for learning practical halacha).

Saying something negative about someone for the sole purpose of not keeping everything pent up may be muttar if all of the conditions of lashon hora l’toeles are present.

Of course there’s room to exist and be human, but part of being human is controlling yourself and not “expressing yourself freely” when the purpose is to put someone else down.

Again, though, if the purpose is really for emotional health, speak to a rav about the circumstances and conditions undir which it is permitted (and proper) to say what you need to say.

The Chazal he brought actually did support his point.

It just doesn’t support your exaggerated version of his point.

He’s making a simple point that we shouldn’t raise expectations unnecessarily. Not sure what you are reading into his statements that is bothering you so much.

I’m opposed to shidduch pictures because, although someone needs to find their spouse attractive, I think putting pictures on the resume puts the focus on the wrong thing.

Just because someone wouldn’t or didn’t take the high road doesn’t mean we shouldn’t.

Please be דן לכף זכות that he realized his mistake and did תשובה.

Who, jackk, or Rabbi Reisman?

Also, I didn’t realize it was April 1st.

Bump (for nostalgia’ sake)

Its really not a serious question. Without having minimal language, math and science skills, young men and women coming out of yeshivos and BY’s will be functionally illiterate, unable to perform basic functions of paying bills, booking travel arrangements, communicating with medical and service providers, etc. You cannot keep the next generation in a cave forever.

That’s your theory coming from your very closeminded view that education has to take the form you are accustomed to.

But it’s demonstrably untrue, as chassidim who receive a very poor secular education (which I’m not agreeing with, but it’s none of mine or anybody else’s business) make more money than the average, and are able to communicate just fine, even if their grammar isn’t perfect.

(and 3)

Even as Lakewood Vaad tries to use Rambam.

Strawman. I didn’t ch”v say we never pasken like the Ramba”m. But, the halacha from the Ramba”m you keep citing in your anti kollel diatribes is one we don’t pasken like. Happens to be that it’s an apparrent stirah in the Ramba”m anyhow.

I can’t figure out why AAQ keeps pretending that we pasken like that Rambam.
Plain and simple, we don’t. See all meforshim, and I’ll just repeat one more time that R’ Moshe writes that one who can learn but doesn’t because he wants to be “machmir” like the Rambam is following the advice of the yetzer hora.

Bravo, Syag, for your valiant attempts to get AAQ to see his hypocrisy and blatant bias, but I’m afraid (just as this post) that it won’t make a dent.

What about the famous Rambam?

There you go again, taking the Rambam out of context, and even more so out of historical and halachic context.

RK: Doesn’t follow.
The opposite – since we can’t know HKB”H’ specific ratzon, the “discoverable principles” may not be what we think they are.

The biggest scientest cannot predict the course of events in human history, on a micro or macro level.

Why the assumption that it’s a general parenting style rather than one specific case?

Please respond to the rest of my comment

That’s the part which is interesting.

Ideally, abortion should be legal when halachically appropriate, but not when assur.

We are unlikely to have the law written that way, so what the appropriate position for a Torah Yid to take (and the public position of our institutions) is something for our gedolim to decide.

@yserbius, we are still waiting for a specific source.

I noticed that when challenged, you changed from “Rav Moshe ZT”L said in his teshuvos that we should not fight RvW” to “I believe he also did not like the so called “Pro Life” movement”

I don’t know if he did or didn’t, but that’s the kind of statement you need to back up.

Everyone is a big tzadik relative to someone under
them

Except for the last one.

If everything you wrote was repeated in this thread, why are you all bent out of shape that they deleted it once?

I think you’re running wild with the conspiracy theories if you think the moderators on Yeshiva World sell NYC tap water.

From JAMA:

Efficacy of Ivermectin Treatment on Disease Progression Among Adults With Mild to Moderate COVID-19 and Comorbidities (The I-TECH Study)

Key Points

Question

Does adding ivermectin, an inexpensive and widely available antiparasitic drug, to the standard of care reduce the risk of severe disease in patients with COVID-19 and comorbidities?

Findings

In this open-label randomized clinical trial of high-risk patients with COVID-19 in Malaysia, a 5-day course of oral ivermectin administered during the first week of illness did not reduce the risk of developing severe disease compared with standard of care alone.

Meaning

The study findings do not support the use of ivermectin for patients with COVID-19.

in the olden times הגולל נוטל שכר כולן, Megilla 32, gelilah was greater than everything.

That’s because the person who did Hagbah rolled the Torah.

0.79 fatalities for driving per 100 million traveled miles on urban roads
< 0.5 for flying commercial
but higher for using general aviation – 10

You’re making a huge mistake, because if we banned driving, people would travel less and be safer.

That’s how lost chasidim hold

What do chasidim who have found themselves hold?

If the therapist cannot control themselves when the patient is vulnerable, then he is not a good therapist.

Having a yetzer hora doesn’t mean one isn’t a good therapist.
