brooklyn19:
<em><strong>your text here.</em></strong>I’m merely stating I’m not giving any chiddushim of my own.
Wolf,
So by your own statement you admit that a believer in evolution by definition thinks man descended from a non-human animal (ape or whatever name you want to give it), and as such evolution by definition is Keneged HaTorah.
Thank You chasid-of-Hashem.
Does anyone make these Chanuka dounts after Chanuka?
000,
For the umpteenth time, it is not my vort. The QUOTE “The essence of Modern Orthodoxy is the same as the Reform and Conservative” was said by HaRav Aharon Kotler ZTV’L, as stated in Mishnas Rabi Aharon (vol. 3, Hesped on the Brisker Rav).
anon,
but brooklyn19 decreases in age with each passing day. Why, just yesterday she was 24!
squeak, I never knew you were the truck driver type.
lkjhgfdsa, did ya change your screen name after donthaveinternet revealed herself to all?
I found Joseph and other’s comments on the “modern orthodox” jews repulsive and offensive.
ROB,
You found this offensive?: “The essence of Modern Orthodoxy is the same as the Reform and Conservative.”
Like I said when I quoted it, it is not my vort. It was said by Maran Hagoen HaRav Aharon Kotler ZTV’L, as stated in Mishnas Rabi Aharon (vol. 3, Hesped on the Brisker Rav).
So the issue is between “ROB” and HaRav Aharon Kotler ZTV’L.
(And since you have previously made clear you do not find the Reform and Conservative movements very repulsive and offensive, why does it bother you that the Gedolim have lumped the MO together with the Reform and Conservative?)
Wolf,
”Crisis”? What ”crisis”?
I said ”so-called crisis.”
The solution to this so-called ”crisis” is more Torah learning, more Kollel yungerleit, more Yeshivas, and more Yiddishe kinder.
SJS,
If Feivel, squeak, brooklyn19, intellegent, Zalman, Will Hill, or any one of a number of posters here said that, it would be food for thought and worth seriously pondering. But coming from you or your cadre of posters, I accept it as a high compliment and a hearty laugh.
Please keep them coming.
Feivel, Just a quick suggestion; its customary to italicize the quote, and use regular characters for your own comments. Following this usually makes it easier for others to follow, since it how many readers are used to reading comments.
If anyone wants to attack me, take your best shot, I’ll take all punches. But if C’V someone starts up with Talmidei Chachomim and Gedolei Hador, I will be first in line for the defense. No hold bars.
If you feel a need to attack someone, use me as your punching bag. NOT THE GEDOLIM!
and Chofetz Chaim Hilchos Loshon Hora 8-4.
Being mevazeh a talmid chochom is pure apikorsus. See Sanhedrin 99b, Rambam’s psak, Kesef Mishna, teshuvah 3 – 14.
Rabbosai, yossiea is rasha merusha who is mevazeh Gedolim berabim, in multiple threads on this site.
mdlevine, In subsequent posts to the OP, chaimss has expressed appreciation for the valid halachic issues raised my the comments here.
yossiea, I don’t address myself to reshoyim such a yourself who are mevazeh Gedolim berabim, as you have done on numerous threads on this site.
Arye.in.Tenn,
Thank you for your input. The points you raise (including mixing with females) are very serious, and worthy of great consideration.
mdlevine, In the OP chaimss solicited posters ”thoughts on this”.
chaimss,
And what heter is there if, say, you are deployed to Somalia or Haiti on a ”peacekeeping” mission (”Peacekeeping” is the only one thing Democrat Presidents think the U.S. Military is useful for.)
Aside from the fact no Yiddishe lives are at risk during a Somalian or Haitian ”peacekeeping mission”, no American lives are even at stake, and you are risking your life (pekuach nefesh) in vain and are violating Shabbos Kodesh for some krumme savages halfway around the world. (I doubt your Warrant Officer [or Comimissioned Officer be it as it may] will exempt you from working in the Somalian hinterlands on Shabbos.)
(Now all the attack dogs can start yelling at me for being such a frummie, and how dare I raise such illegitimate halachic questions with such an idealistic potential Officer!)
Modern orthodoxy is about compromising halacha. Rav Aharon Kotler ZTV’L, in Mishnas Rabi Aharon (vol. 3, Hesped on the Brisker Rav) states that the essence of Modern Orthodoxy is the same as the Reform and Conservative.
chaimss,
just me raises another pertinent point. Aside from the Pekuach Nefesh problems, once you are in the service (and even while you are training), are you able to maintain Shabbos Kodesh 100%?

yossiea, You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. In fact, there are far more followers of Rav Miller ZTV’L alone, then there are MO altogether.
Be bold and state the truth. And the truth of the shikker King is that he was a philanderer, a drunk, a liar, a plagiarist, and a cheater.
squeak,
What peyos?
“Enlightened”,
squeak said it better than I could. Thank you squeak.
646, I don’t intend this disrespectfully, but your comments here (as in many other threads you comment in), show a great level of immaturity and inability to see an issue thoroughly.
yossie,
IF you only had a clue how widespread and varied Hagoen HaRav Avigdor Miller ZTV’L following is.
I’ve heard Gedolim lament that Yeshivos give the bochorim off on Chol Hamoed.
SJS,
And I know of plenty of kids who played with matches and didn’t get burned.
Are you giving your 13 year old a box of matches to play with?
Wolf,
How many quotes shall I provide you, of you calling the CR posters (in general and specifically) idiots, in so many words on your blog?
Wow, all the girls are defending me…
brooklyn19, in ’48 it got much worse of course, but the zionists riled up the Arabs as far back as zionism exists — late 1800’s.
yros – There is more than one mishpacha at the Sheva Brochos.
No Virginia, there is no Santa. The zionists have caused the great anger of the Arab against the Jew, that has now resulted in the last 100 years of violence. Prior to the advent of zionism (circa 1898), as bad as it may have been to live in an Arab country, is was MANY MANY times better than a Yid living in a Christian country.
Wolf,
The OP solicited comments on the matter. There was no castigating.
Now why don’t you do your usual shtick, and go to your blog and make a post making fun of all the uncultured idiots of the Coffee Room, as you are wont to do.
”Enlightened”,
The Gedolim Shlita are sure to thank you for all these wonderful ideas that they didn’t come up with on their own.
000, From the Gedolim.
Indeed. The zionist army is probably the MOST morally corrupt military in the Universe.
If the choice is someone will either be modern orthodox or be completely frei, obviously better for him to be MO than for him to be completely frei.
Wolf, you asked a different shaila than the OP.
squeak, The OP of this thread solicited comments on the issue. (As an aside, where above did I state it is impermissable?)
intellegent, Thanks, you make good points of course. But pay Feif no heed when he acts like a troll.
Wolf, That is a good shaila.
Rabbosai, Cell phones and children is a large part of why Kids go off the derech and the teens at risk issue.
You are playing with fire. If you give your kids phones now, don’t cry later when they C’V become ”at risk” and R’L go off the derech.
Yank,
I hope your brother keeps away from the worst kind of shmutz that permeates within the zionist army. The absolute worst.
