    The actual close talmidim like R’ Willig shlita and the Rav’s grandsons hy”d and shlita are the ones actually upholding the Rav’s mehalech and Torah; anyone who claims that the Rav would have supported women’s minyanim is not a true talmid of the Rav and simply twisting the Torah and the Rav’s Torah.

    and yet sadly, today many people leave ou the Rabbi and desparigingly reffer to the Rav by his initials, (not the GRI¨D).

    CTR “there are a lot more boys in BMG currently enrolled in college than Ner Israel.” There are also more than 10 times more boys enrolled in BMG; I would be intrested in hearing percentage wise who has more.
    UJM “His rabbinic peers (equals) generally called him (in person to him and between themselves) simply by those two initials of his first names. There wasn’t and isn’t anything derogatory about that. The reverence in mostly referring to him as R’ Yoshe Ber is, for the most part, posthumous by those seeking to raise his stature.”
    And yet those beneath him should have no excuse to refer to him as such. If R’Yaakov Kamenetzky was called Yankel by his peers no bachur or yungerman or maggid shiur would chv¨sh call him by such a name.

    The true anti-zionists will serve in the army and get a job as to avoid being reliant on the medina stipends. If you (ujm) will say all those in kollel should not accept stipends or well fair then I would be willing to hear you say the reason charedim don’t go to the army is zionism.

    This is not to condone or condemn charedim in the army just seeing who is a true Anti Zionist who is just shouting slogans.

    And is the “normal system” the best option? Even if you don’t have to worry about going into debt, it’s not assur or even bedieved to have some individuality. Seriously, what’s wrong with having an abnormal chasuna?

    The “Afrikaners” moved there only a couple hundred years ago, the Ethiopian Jews (or non Jews, not saying one way or another but just pointing something out) claim to have been in central Africa close to the equator for thousands of years. It would make sense that the Ashkenazim started off relatively darker but after a long time in dark Northern Europe took on paler complexions.

    I personally would prefer to light their “Chanukah bush” but that would be arson and therefore illegal. You should always keep in mind how beautiful these universal symbols of freedom are when lit by VP Miriam bas Bilga.

    It’s to keep toxic masculinity in check. If boys were taught Tanach they would feel superior to girls in all ways this way woman will be able to have some edge of knowledge over their husbands.

    My not-frum grandfather used to think talmid chacham meant a sick or poor person from all the emails he got to “save a talmid chacham with six kids and no kidneys” I think he was kind of horrified to hear his grand kids saying they want to be a talmid chacham when they grow up.

    >Aseres Hadibros (Ten Commandments, for the uninitiated.

    Last time I checked dibra did not mean commandment. If we had the aseres hamitzvos that would be different. while of course KA”V is a chiyuv, to say that the aseres hadibros are commandments shows a lack of initiation on your part.

    the Salem witch trials were merely the biggest New world example of what had been happening all over Europe for the past few centuries. Sadly in Europe often yidden HY”D would be the witches burned t the stake R”L for witchcraft, with fake or no evidence. Similarly almost all the teenage girls accusing “witches” in Salem admitted years later to making it all up because they were bored.

    I don’t see why everyone is getting so worked up about CRT, it’s not being taught in OUR schools. No matter who where or when we will have racists. Racist whites who will shoot up shuls, and racist blacks who will shoot up stores and beat people up. WAKE UP (no pun intended) we’re in galus arguing about the supposed racism in our HOST country maybe we should focus on davening and learning and ranting about other stuff on the CR.

    We can’t use the actions of an adam gadol to learn out halacha lemaisah. In addition very little shaychus to this discussion, the question isn’t weather you can look at your wife (if you have one), it’s why some shave their heads if there’s a link here that I’m missing please let me know.
