    I know that Alexa doesn’t use the word “yid” because it’s derogatory but I know a lot of people who want to be referred to as one

    Benny Friedman for example 😃

    “Dear Qwerty,

    “The Gemara explicitly said that Nevuah ended during the 2nd Temple period and will not be restored until Moshiach comes.”

    There is no such Gemara.“

    I’m not trying to defend qwerty but there is a Mishnah to that (can’t remember where, something about זהירות, פרישות, רוח הקדש, אליהו הנביא something of that sort

    Sechel,

    There were other “tzaddikim gemurim” (one was even Shlomo’s son I think) so they should be moshiach (they’ll come back from the dead to do all those things)

    Qwerty,

    What’s my handle?

    I asked the Lubavitchers on this site to which none of them answered the question

    I would really like to know their opinion

    I was wondering this today

    Do Lubavitchers believe the Rebbe is/was perfect?

    Do they believe that Moshiach will be perfect?

    Bump

    So I’m going in a couple of weeks and wanted to see gedolim in Bnei Brak (Rav Moshe Hillel Hirsch for one) how does one go about doing it?

    I also heard that there’s a tram that goes from the airport to Yerushalayim, does it make sense to take that back to Tel Aviv and then take a bus to Bnei Brak since it’s closer?

    “i love all misnagdim, im sorry if anyone gets offended by the term snag, its just short for misnagdim“

    Sechel,

    Use your sechel

    Misnaged comes from the word נגד against, in other words either your a חסיד or against חסידים litvishers don’t consider themselves against חסידים anymore

    What a way to show אחדות by calling people that don’t follow your way “the people that are against us”

    Thank you haleivi

    I want to comment I was reading an article in the mishpacha from a few weeks ago about a baalas teshuva and how she went to an in town community and they made her feel like an outcast (sorry if I’m not being too wordy, if anyone wants to give more details כל הכבוד)

    This is what sinas chinam is

    Orthodoxrabbi,

    So you’re using the source that he can come from the dead by a person that says his father is moshiach but you’re arguing that his father is moshiach?

    He would say the rebbe isn’t moshiach because it’s his father

    “i think every chabadsker loves rav shach“

    Well you’re mistaken

    I’m sorry

    I know a Lubavitcher that put up his middle finger when Rav shach’s name was mentioned

    If you loved misnagdim you wouldn’t call them snags it’s like a person that’s calls Jews the k word and says he loves all jews

    To get back to the main topic at hand

    How is אבילות (not getting a haircut, not getting married, and not listening to music etc) supposed to help

    If the problem is שנאת חינם the things we should be doing is more chessed not אבילות and why the connection to ספירת העומר with the תלמידים of rabbi Akiva

    Thank you yungermanS,

    In order to solve a problem you have to figure out what the problem is, and it seems like we haven’t figured out the problem because we’re still here and we’re still doing the same things

    I highly doubt if we really knew what the problem is then the gedolim wouldn’t help us fix it

    “And yet he also says bar kochba was a melech and rabbi Akiva thought he was moshiach. How strange! The Rambam pashut says a king and ur gonna tell me bar kochba was a king without fitting how the Rambam says a king is established?!”

    Menachem

    The answer is, is that chabad is a great sect in yiddishkeit and it would be even better if it cut out “the rebbe is moshiach” naarishkeitin so the frum non chabadniks that you meet are trying to make chabad (and in essence the whole religion) better

    Avirah,

    Sinas chinam is looking how each of us is different and accentuating it

    So Lubavitchers believe their rebbe is moshiach and can come from the dead, so what? It isn’t an aveirah (maybe a shtus) and they won’t listen to you and you won’t listen to them

    You’ll think they’re crazy and they’ll think you’re crazy

    I don’t see a point to multiple “rebbe being moshiach” threads and why now?

    Joe,

    I figured you would nitpick

    A pessimist always sees the glass half full and the Mishnah in pirkei avos calls this an Ayin Rah

    Btw lobster is a sheretz so it’s six lavin that makes it worse than chazir

    I’m not dealing with the older generation they might be a lost cause

    And in my case the salad is also sheratzim however it seems like MO has gone away from the shittah that lettuce is a miyoot hamatzoi

    I’m sorry to hijack this thread, not really interested in starting a new one and not interested in looking for one that it will fit into better

    The shul that I daven shachris in (because it’s near my job) is MO. Today in between the first and second minyan I eavesdropped a little on a conversation that the rabbi of the shul was having with a father and his teenage son, it seems like there is going to be an engagement in the family and the other side might want to do it in a restaurant that’s not so kosher so the son wanted to know what he should do if that is the case. The rabbi said obviously you can’t eat the meat, but the cold food shouldn’t be a problem and that includes the salads

    The boy wasn’t comfortable with it

    End of story one

    A few nights ago I was at a simcha of the Rav of my shul where I live and one of the attendees (who is a big part of the shul) was asking who’s the caterer and found out that it was a well known caterer, so he tells this story that he was at a different simcha a while ago and asked about the meat to the mashgichim over there and they didn’t know, so he goes around to the rabbanim at the simcha and tells them the mashgichim don’t know who gives hashgacha on the meat and everyone just kept on eating

    I’m sorry if the point of my stories aren’t clear, but what I’m saying is, is that everyone is judged on his level, the MO kid that will be going to a not so kosher restaurant is giving more nachas to Hashem than the rabbanim that was ok with the meat
