    “Just as we have women’s sections with a mechitzah, perhaps we could have one for armed men“

    Good idea! So when a terrorist or madman comes in with a gun he’ll be told he’s on the wrong side of the mechitzah and then is directed to the other side!

    “I did answer you you said at the entrance. I said no problem with a cop outside the door with a gun. To me that is at the entrance.
    You didn’t ask about inside the building at the entrance to a particular room where davening occurs.“

    Ok to me it isnt and since you understood that before and still haven’t answered the question it proves that you wouldn’t want police inside the shul either

    So it’s due to two reasons that you were irked that someone next to you was packing while davening

    1) he’s a civilian
    2) it’s in a shul

    Xctlawyer,

    You didn’t answer my question (or maybe you did)

    I asked

    “Would you be more comfortable if it was a cop at the entrance? It seems like you wouldn’t because “guns don’t belong in a shul”

    Inside the shul at the entrance like where people come in to daven

    And you answered

    “outside the shul door“

    In other words im right that it doesn’t matter who’s inside or outside be it police officer, private security, or mispallel

    “I wrote I was uncomfortable davening in shul with the person next to me having a gun.
    I consider a shul a place of peace where guns don’t belong.“

    Would you be more comfortable if it was a cop at the entrance? It seems like you wouldn’t because “guns don’t belong in a shul”

    “Please don’t twist my words. The fellow davener with a gun in his holster is not using a gun, he is carrying. Whether or not the gun is muktzah is not for me to pasken“

    Im not twisting words a gun in a holster is a potential use of the gun

    Aaq,

    I think you hit the nail on the head regarding the emotional side

    IMO xctl was traumatized by his store owner that missed and killed a child, seeing a death (especially unintentional) can do that

    In the same vein we say כל הרואה סוטה בקלקולה יזיק עצמו מן היין because he can be like that

    So too here I think xctl is saying he feels uncomfortable around civilians using guns even if they’re good law abiding citizens because of an unintended death

    That’s only where the police officers are, everywhere else they drive dangerously and it stops the police from catching dangerous drivers which would really teach them to stop

    You can’t just not allow a post because you don’t agree with it

    You don’t know how deep your question is

    I work with wraps and there are some wraps that are Hamotzi and some are Pas Habah Bkisnin and really the place that sells the wrap should specify the bracha (or if it is pas Habah Bkisnin or not)

    Yes, is there a problem with that?

    “That is making things even clearer: after consulting and having a milchemes mitzva, Yehoshua is still told that he needs to learn – at night, after fighting. Not that you can do one of them and Hashem will count. Not that you can even have one group fighting and another shteiging.“

    “And, according to your opinion, it is possible for a gadol to declare that going to the Army is equivalent to learning?
    Then, I suggest 2 approaches:
    1) follow RZ gedolim
    2) respectfully approach your gadol and ask whether he is amendable for such declaration l’ darkei shalom. Maybe, just a tryout for a week before end of bein haazmanim.“

    Aaq,

    We don’t go “gadol shopping” unless that’s your type of Yiddishkeit 🙄 and it seems like “דרכי שלום” seems like what the daati rabbanim are doing agreeing that they’re not obligated to go to the army

    It seems like a lot of people on this site are all or nothing type of people either sit and learn 24/7 or go fight

    Aaq,

    “you suggest transformation between different substances upon Rabbi’s decision?”

    Can you rephrase that in simpler English?

    “When malach told Yehoshua that he came because Jews were not learning during the war – Yehoshua could just say that when I order the fight, it counts as learning?! Or why he did not designate bnei Levi to sit and learn?“

    I don’t think Yehoshua was the same scenario because he could’ve asked the urim vteumim and that was a milchemes mitzvah

    “He says “there’s not a Jew in the world who deserves punishment” that does not mean there is no שכר עונש”

    So if a person gets “punished” he’s telling Hashem that the person doesn’t deserve it? He knows better than Hashem?

    In feldheim’s translation of מאמר הגאולה from the רמח״ל quotes the מלבים (in a letter to Rav Tzvi Hirsh Kalischer) that the Jews will gain permission from the great leaders of the world to have ארץ ישראל then they will settle there , then Moshiach will come

    “First, what source in Torah do you have that makes this a meaningful distinction. Is your implication that a government that keeps Torah law is a “Jewish” government? So, which governments are the ones keeping more Jewish law?“

    You obviously don’t understand what makes something more Jewish than something else

    Hakatan wrote

    “bottom line, there is nothing “Jewish” about the zionist state, certainly nothing more Jewish than New York State or Lebanon.“

    “I don’t think NYS or Lebanon shuts down their buses and their government offices on Yom Kippur”

    I didnt compare Israel to NY or Lebanon, Hakatan did, i didnt say Israel is a Jewish state im just showing that it’s “more Jewish” than Lebanon or NY

    I love how Lubavitchers have to turn themselves into a pretzel

    They take all these proofs that moshiach can come from the dead but argue on them that it HAS TO be their rebbe as opposed to whoever the other person is (anyone should pick the besht over the rebbe)
