Avirah would he let it in circumstances knowing that it’s treated for anxiety today?
It’s a societal problem that people in the yeshivish world like to make believe isn’t happening among Jews or how prevalent it is. It’s happening to Jews of all background..
OU-D milk lasts weeks
Yeshivaguy CY milk out of town is often not fresh.
Buying CY milk out of town makes no sense. You don’t have to buy spoiled milk.
You mean in my opinion? Well, my opinion is not important. But anyway, this gentleman asks what should we say about the Neturei Karta in Eretz Yisroel -about the shitah – the derech of the Neturei Karta in Eretz Yisroel? Now that’s a question for which I am not suited. The truth is that the Neturei Karta have choshuveh talmidei chachomim among them. But it’s true that among those who are not Neturei Karta there are also very choshuveh talmidei chachomim. So you really want me to stick my little head between them – between Rav Amram Blau, zul’zein gezunt, and between, let’s say, Rav Chaskel Abramsky, who’s not Neturei Karta?! Or HaRav Shach, the Rosh Yeshiva in Ponovizh. He’s also not Neturei Karta.
In general, though, we must know that there is no question that almost everything that is fundamental is germane to all of them – to all of our Torah leaders. They really have the same ideas. They just differ on minor points. The truth is that these points are very minor. Like someone once said, and he was right, “All yeshiva people, all over the world, are really Neturei Karta.” It means that we all agree with the Neturei Karta – the only question is should we do exactly this or that. For example, when it comes to voting, some Gedolim say that we should vote in the elections in Eretz Yisroel in order to give more power to the Orthodox – to the Agudas Yisroel party. And others say that by voting you are signifying your consent to the atheistic regime. So this – and other minor points – are delicate questions and it is up to greater people than me to decide.But in general, we have to know, that more or less, everyone is in agreement. Among the good element everybody is in agreement.

Ever consider changing your approach or what you’re looking for? You need to find things in your life that bring you happiness and personal feelings of success so that you have positive things to share about yourself on dates. It’s not easy but there are ways to do better for yourself.
GH When the European colonists left the middle east there were vacuums that were filled by new age religious extremists. Israeli military gave them fuel for their agenda.
So learn to love and respect differences?
You’re right. Some people in what they call MO Machmir or YU Right Wing have woken up to the Avlah and choose to either go to Landers or CUNY and learn at a mainstream Yeshiva at night morning or both. Unfortunately til today YU is seen as the standard for much of MO. Is it better that these kids whose parents leave them little choices how to spend their post HS or Israel years at an away fully goyish college or better to go to YU and at least have a kesher with a Rav?
Democrats contest every midterm and presidential election they lose.
Technically the Baal Shem Tov didn’t follow the mesorah of his predecessors. There was a cherem on Chasidim because of a concern that it’ll lead to a new Sabbatean movement. Mods this is fact in case you want to hide the truth.
wow, you got me all figured out
Just like there are different kav within the yeshiva Velt, such is the way within MO. Some follow the teachings of holy Yidden like R Moshe Feinstein, R YB Soloveitchik, and Rav Herschel Schechter and some follow Rabbi Dr Norman Lamm. The more Zionist leaning MO follow Rav Kook. R Kook and R Soloveitchik all learned in Litvish Yeshivas.
GH let the men do the talking. Stay in your lane.
Curious George is a monkey.
Prices of everything have gone up.
Rav JB Soloveitchik knew shas and Poskim and went to university in Berlin. He survived Europe.
You have to be careful that you’re doing it in a way that’s Lshem Shomayim. Chabad isn’t Karaite.
We learn from Korach not to get involved with Machlokes.
And people who vote Democrat like the NY Askan machine are on the same team.
Huju they tried this through the 1950s. The results were disastrous.
What are your thoughts on the Halachic Prenup @ctl?
“Making a public school explicitly Christian is slam dunk establishing a religion. I don’t get how that’s even being questioned.”
Ten Commandments doesn’t make it establishing a religion; they’re values. They teach evolution too. You’re the one who’s moving the goalposts around by saying that it establishes religion when it doesn’t. Religious ideas or expression aren’t establishing a religion.
“I filed one in CT against a charter school taking public funds that starts the day with the Lord’s Prayer”
Because you’re a Democrat who takes the wrong position on every issue.
You’re day job is supposed to uphold the laws of the constitution but you use it to destroy it and replace it with a Democratic agenda.
AAQ correct about states rights. That’s why we can have dry counties in Utah and if a Mormon is chalishing for a drink, he can head over to Nevada and overindulge himself.
You’re taking courts/Democrat interpretation of the constitution. It might look like it but it isn’t.
The origin of the expression “separation of church and state” is found in a letter from Thomas Jefferson written to the Danbury Baptist Association in 1802. The Danbury Baptist Association had written a letter to the president voicing their concern that their state constitution lacked specific protections of religious freedom.
The Danbury Baptists wrote in the letter, “what religious privileges we enjoy (as a minor part of the State) we enjoy as favors granted, and not as inalienable rights. And these favors we receive at the expense of such degrading acknowledgments, as are inconsistent with the rights of freemen.”
Jefferson responded to the Danbury Baptists by referencing the Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment.
“I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should ‘make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,’ thus building a wall of separation between Church and State,” Jefferson said.
The metaphor of a “wall of separation” was not intended to say that religion should not influence opinion on government issues. Rather, it was used to affirm free religious practice for citizens.
Separation of church and state” is a metaphor paraphrased from Thomas Jefferson and used by others in discussions regarding the Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution which reads: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…”
Not ben Franklin
Neville separation of church and state is based on a letter Ben Franklin wrote that the courts used to destroy religion in the US. True statement.
Expression of religion isn’t establishment. Also true statement. Expression of religion is protected by the first amendment. Both of these have been destroyed by the Democrats you probably vote for.
Separation of church and state isn’t a constitutional amendment. Ten commandments in a school isn’t establishing a religion. Religion can be expressed in schools just like they celebrate various Christian and Muslim holidays.
Today that’s much better than bringing in people in drag to tell them to have gender reassignment surgeries and that their parents are bad for discouraging it… This is new York a Democrat degenerate cesspool.
Yes we try to stick to our minhagim regardless as much as possible.
If he doesn’t go then there could be a risk of danger to Jews in that the news will say that the Jews are disrespectful of the culture
It’s part of the job he’s a member of the house of Lords.
Mayonnaise with diced jalapeno isn’t a dip
Democrats rigged the election when key states changed their rules for counting votes on election day causing suspicion on the integrity of our election systems.
