Also, the word is “k’felech”, “not k’pelech”

An internet.

“you should get married to someone that wants to grow in ruchniyus and as long as you do too, that will be what you look for”

I know what I’m looking for. I asked for a bracha to find someone like that.

A cookbook.

I’m not sure why you consider secularists ‘reikanin shebach’.

Nor am I sure why you consider their actions to be mitzvos.

“once the minhag has completley evolved to gifts, EEK and Lior will be defending the ancient heilege minhag of giving davka gifts on chanuka.”

No, I won’t be defeding altz the fact that’s heilige, because it isn’t, I’ll say “what’s the problem? Its a nice thing”. Just like I am doing now.

You need to clarrify what your point in participating in extracuricular activities is.

Depending on your motive, it is easier to suggest activities.

“No we don’t. In fact, there are safeguard in halacha to make sure we *don’t* kill someone for simply making one mistake.”

Are you talking about hasraah? If so, it would still only be a single mistake which would lead to death.

With what? With purple? Not a chance!

My intent is that goyim can dress however they want. the issue is for the Jew to look.

It’s because Jews were jealous of Christmas.

I call them Rashi.

I enjoy it. Because it is really interesting to see how somebody can…..

Music can be assur for a few different reasons.

1. Avodah Zara- It is assur to listen to music (even classical music) written for the sole purpose of worship of other gods. Church music for example.

2. Hirhurim- It is assur to listen to (most modern) music whose main theme is lewd discussion of relationships. It is a terrible thing to be influenced by those values which are so antithetical to our holy Torah. The Torah believes that these issues should not be discussed so publicly and in a way that portrays these matters as simply self- pleasure. It lacks any form of busha and takes away from the kedusha possible to achieve by using these tayvas at the proper time. Listening to this type of thinking definitely causes us to spend time thinking about these issues which is assur and it is also tremendously distracting as it tends to take over people’s entire mind.

3. What’s the problem with other music? I wouldn’t say it’s necessarily the best use of one’s time, but I don’t see the problem.
