    Simple Answer: The outside world doesn’t like us.

    YOU CAN MOVE TO ISRAEL WITHOUT JOINING an apikorisdig movement that opposes Yiddishkeit. You can settle there without having to be DatiLeumi.

    Hashem knows what is best. SYAS was not working for me after a 2 years of being a member. It may work for modern-leaning people who prefer w matchmaker. It is not psychologically healthy for a man to constantly be seeking women.

    It is a Mitzvah to live in Israel.

    One’s interested in making Aliyah shouldn’t be dominated by physical reasons like the Tsionist movement. It should be dominated by the spirituality of the holy land. “Spiritual reasons include the kedushah of Erets Yisrael and it’s kehilos.

    I wouldn’t kind raising a donkey in Israel. I wouldn’t mind harvesting grapes in Israel. I wouldn’t mind spending the rest of my life in Israel.

    I support any arm that’s protecting over a million Jews (even if it’s an enemy country like the USSR).

    Goyim have the tendency to violently oppose us, so sometimes, an armed group of defenders is a necessary evil.

    Phone-Dating is still a thing.

    I was already doing that even before Corona season.

    We haven’t hit Lag B’omer. Who knows? The משיח could come before the 33rd count of the Omer, and we could all be in Israel.

    1. You are part of the Jewish Nation, so being involved in the theological complications involving Catholicism is not allowed.

    2. You need to go to the communities that have more converts like Atlanta, GA. These places also have many Ba’al Teshuvah people.

    3. I am a Ba’al Teshuvah, and I found a way to “fit in” while still having a sense of self. However, Judaism, like any community, requires an understanding of one’s collective existence since no religion is individualistic (including Catholicism).

    4. Catholicism means “universal”. They are trained to accept converts, but that doesn’t mean they are on the our side. They are on their own side.

    5. Many people have converted and integrated into certain communities.

    6. Don’t be fooled by the “Hasidic Jews accept converts mentality” because they’re just following certain Mitzvos that there culture has. They might not be open to the stuff that many Yehudim are into. In fact, it might make sense for you to be in a Yeshivish or Kiruv-oriented Synagouge.

    If you are all on your own properties, it’s fine.

    Keep on the Social Distancing.

    Stay away from the Red Zones (areas where the Corona Virus is high).

    In America, I may have to abstain from dating in or near NYC for a time.

    You can still have a phone date or be Dalet Amos from the woman.

    Perhaps Frum people need a wake up call no to be Fake with Frumkeit.

    I just davened with a physically spaced-out outdoor Minyan. It felt so special and satisfying to daven with a minyan. That’s not something I normally feel. The mere ability to do a mitzvah has become special.

    Sometimes we take the little things in life for granted. We don’t even stop to think of what we truly value.

    Exactly.

    Some fake frum people obsess over how much they don’t like Tzionism but seem to ignore the tragedy of Communism. The average American Jew doesn’t know what it’s like to be scared of being put in a Siberian Concentration Camp for KEEPING SHABBOS.

    I find Western Jewish culture to be embarrassing in what it chooses to hashkafically oppose; it makes no sense!
