I’m wondering about the DE thing. If something is DE, does it have to be Cholov Yisroel for people who are makpid on Cholov Yisroel?
Some are and some are not makpid. Don’t bring a DE item as a gift unless you know they are not makpid.
Bottom Line: According to the Chofetz Chaim, it is assur to speak Loshon Hora about not-Frum Jews.
They are not bichlal amisecha.
I meant that saying someone is stupid is unnecessarily more insulting than saying someone is not intelligent.
The fact that you used that example suggests that in an equivalent example to what Abba_s said, you would not seem correct, so you exaggerated.
It was l’toeles, because his explanation was more reasonable than yours.
When someone has commitment issues, they are not dating for marriage purposes, although they often think they are. Perhaps Abba_s should have made that more clear, as well as making it more clear that he was speculating. Personally, I think it was obvious, and his statement was not motzi shem ra.
I agreed with you that it was worded poorly, but it should be obvious that it was speculation, not fact.
I think that depending in on the context, saying someone may not be intelligent may not be assur.
The fact that you had it worded in an insulting way doesn’t change the halachah if it was not said that way.
He said that the boy was dating not in order to get married.
You’re making it sound worse than it is. He said the boy has commitment issues, not that he is stringing people along intentionally.
There’s no way Abba_s could know the real reason. It was obviously, even if worded wrongly, merely speculation.
Ordinarily, motzi shem ra is saying something negative and false as fact. Do you have a source saying that speculation falls under the issur?
Are you saying, they shouldn’t lest they misinterpret.
If someone is likely to misinterpret, then they should learn with a rebbe or learn subject matter which they are unlikely to misinterpret.
And yes, my question has to do with the facts related in the gemara.
So find someone who can teach you.
If it was incorrectly transmitted from the oral, well, that is a problem,no?
Who said anything about an incorrect transmission?
The fact is people do learn on their own and without someone to explain things, they will either take it literally or refuse to believe it literally.
You need a rebbe to guide you on that.
My question is that given that reality, I imagine even back in the time of the gemara there were people who would learn certain passages in wonderment.
I’m not getting what the question is (I don’t imagine it’s about lions), but I think that’s incorrect; at the time the Gemara was compiled, everything was transmitted orally.
To require having a rebbe, because there’s no way the mesorah can otherwise be transmitted properly.
In fact, originally, it was assur to write down (other than as one’s personal notes) Torah sheba’al peh, and was only permitted out of sheer necessity.
You’re welcome.
Yes. It is ???? ????.
Context would be helpful. Perhaps it’s ???? ????.
Because both get their heads bitten off by women.
Rav Moshe Feinstein says that someone who is not Frum is not necessarily and apikorus.
And therefore?
This was also written by the Chofetz Chaim:
??? ???, ??? ??? ???? ??? ???????, ??? ???? ?????, ????? ????? ??????

The Chofetz Chaim is not referring to a mechallel Shabbos b’farhesya.
I meant no, because she doesn’t know it’s an aveirah, she thinks it’s a chumra which the right wingers are claiming is obligatory.
Either that, or struggles with her yetzer hora.
Either way, she doesn’t lose the status of amisecha, unlike a m’challel Shabbos b’farhesya.
If someone considers herself Frum but ignores the prohibition of wearing short skirts or speaking Loshon Hora, even though she knows they are assur, I would think that she would be considered “not-Frum” technically.
No, because of what you just quoted on another thread:
?? ????? ???? ????? ??? ??? ?? ??? ??? ?????? ???? ????
Rav Chaim Kanievsky in Derech Sicha page 217 says that even a tinok shenishba is not bichlal amisecha for L”H.
Because it usually involves two shviggers.
Every sale automatically includes a ‘warranty’ according to halacha. The fine print on a warranty would only be to exclude the company from being responsible ‘as per our agreement’.
No, it would also define the expected durability of a product.
No
No one cares that DaasYochid has more than one wife?
They’re not too happy about it.
Basic warranty covers failures occurring dzue to defects in material or workmanship which occur during normal, reasonable use.
So if the canvas ripped because of the poor workmanship of the poles, is that covered?
I read wikileaks all the time, and so do my wives.
Start by checking the wording on the warranty.
What is the source of this info on the eruv?
Probably more important to ask who supervises/oversees it.
It simply means “black”.
I’m pretty sure that email address is for the shadchan who was interviewed in the article, not Mr. Rechnitz.
I reread it. You’re right.

He does not say straight out that it’s not a chiyuv; he says straight out that we do not force.
Is following an eitzah tova to avoid chashad optional? This he doesn’t say, and neither did Rav Leff, unless he knew that you were in a situation of chashad (chashad can be avoided without necessarily getting married – see ???? ???. http://beta.hebrewbooks.org/rambam.aspx?mfid=37532&rid=3160)
He posted his email address in his shidduch catastrophe article, but I don’t know how often he checks it.
I need this like a loch in kop.
There’s plenty of basis to think there’s a lot of voter fraud, more heavily to the Democrats’ side.
Of course Dunkin has treif available. The issue is whether the utensils are washed together with the coffee making equipment in hot water, as they are in Starbucks.
The Supreme Court needed to decide because Gore filed a suit.
Yes, there’s a big difference between saying the system is rigged and calling for a revolt.
Not treif entirely, since there are shittos to rely on, but certainly not l’chatchilah according to many (including the posek I asked).
So give him a month after the election to do that.
(If he doesn’t, how exactly does that affect anyone?)
I guess that depends on how you define “concede”. As far I can tell, he and the Democrats still insist that he won, and the election was stolen by SCOTUS.
You mean like Gore?
He can learn, and get even more s’char than a kohen gets for doing the avodah.
Taking out from the Shulchan Aruch that he holds its not a chiyuv is a huge stretch. ??”? certainly doesn’t seem to hold that way (cf. ??? ????, however, see ???? ?????).
I will try to check A”H later.
How is saying a spouse should not be prioritized the same as saying their needs should be at least as important as your own?
And the age thing is not the only reason for the Shidduch Crisis, although it may contribute to it.
How are you defining “The Shidduch Crisis”?
http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/defining-the-shidduch-crisis
My point was that I think your spouse’s needs should be at least as important to you as your own (as in, “my knee is hurting us”).
That’s not what you said. You said,
Also, I don’t think a spouse is something to be prioritized altogether. “Ishto k’gufo.” Does one prioritize himself?
What does the Shulchan Aruch say?
Regardless of why you made the comment, it’s not correct. Ishto k’gufo doesn’t mean that when one does something for their spouse it’s not considered a chessed.
Is he assuming there’s no chashad? Why?
I suppose things might be very different here in E”Y. Here they didn’t even there was a crisis (“Mashber Hashiduchim” is an American import)
In Eretz Yisroel the boys start shidduchim younger than in the U.S.
Avi, why would you think that a language being used by a population of probably well over 100,000 people (and ka”h rapidly growing) is dead?
