    when i say a pshat i think it may be emes if not unless it is very gishmak there would be no point in saying it

    from what i have heard from people who know more than me is that it isn’t yiun is better than bekius or that bekius is better that yiun rather every one has a chelek in torah and H’ made it so that i am natuarally attracted to say… halacha so to me i should focus more on halacha. that being said i read in the book “in their shadow” (thats what i think its called) that the chazon ish held everyone has to do yiun.

    a lot of this quotes that say things about “pilpul” it isn’t what we call pilpul rather a much more complicated probably not emesdik way to learn that people just did to sharpen their minds. not because they thought it was emes but because it would make them sharp R’ Yaakov Pollak took this type of learning to poland i don’t know how many 100s of years ago

    i think also if someone R”L says do an aveira (any aveira) in front of ten people for the sake of the aveira one should give his life now please if R”L someone is faced with this don’t say in shamaim i saw it in the offeeroom

    Bechol yoim sheyabo doesnt mean every day you should wait for him coming that day or that he can come on shabbos rather every day i wait for his comming nit necesarily today ie if i knew moshiach is comming in a week from know i could wait for him troughout the whole week. There is a GM’ in Taanis that discussess how come cohanim can get drunk R’ Yehuda, if i recall carrectly, says that since he hasnt come in so much timewe could assume he wont come right now

    there is a rashi in brachos that at least according to one of the leshonos says children shouldn’t be exposed to chumash be’yiun until they are exposed to GM’ i guess this shows which one goes first of course both are necessary

    although you did make clear you were not writing saying it is lehalacha and you said ypu know most poskim don’t hold like this i would like to mention R’ Ribbiat (i think it is him i dont want to misquote him) that even if the pilot is off it is still assur since the water in the tank is still yad soledes and you are making cold water come in

    even if it is grama it is a a psil reisha which at least by ashkenazim is assur unless done through a derabanon so maybe you could do it with a shinui…

    well maybe instead of making a topic of positivity and seeing how far it goes we could just be positive on every thing we write.. if i write about something interesting while being positive it is still interesting not to mention that the chafetz chaim saysthe begging of loshon hora is when people aren’t dan lechaf zchus (i might be wrong someone please correct me if i am it should be at the begging of shmiras ha lashon)

    to all those who say that properly implanted emunah is unbreakable R’ Meir’s rebbi acher im sure had emunah and went off the derech im not sure if it is a chazal or posuk (i think its a mishna in avos but not sure and too lazy to look it up ) but we are told “don’t trust yourself until the day of your death”..

    the irony is killing me complaining about the amount of complaints that being said you have a point i may be incorrect but i believe moshe was punished for speaking loshon hora on am yisrael by the sneh. today i was in target and someone saw i was dressed with yeshiva clothing i didnt even ask him and he offered me a ride back to yeshiva turns out i didn’t need one but i was impressed

    in reply to: Black hats�nafka minahs? #1024280
    nem621
    Participant

    147 he was referring to present day (i think it sounded like that) and nowadays although hats are not commonly used by society at large they are common among frum jews and it is a distinctive feature of jews (people relate hats to jews so much that the term black hat jew exists)

    writersoul, don’t read this as me being mean it is just i can’t use tone of voice when writing but not trying to fight… how do you get dina demalchusa? dina demalchusa dina is something completely different here you have the choice you should choose the jewish thing even if there is no reason or maybe just a silly reason i have never heard a rav say what i said so i might (very likely as i usually am) be wrong

    to my understanding you go to college twice a week and get a degree from there and your shiur gives you grades that are counted instead of the non essential to the degree classes i am not in yeshiva gedola in ner but i do know several people who are i might be incorrect but i think this is pretty accurate

    to answer some questions that are a little old (2 months) the english names for the parts or the torah are from the gemara names i.e. levitucus is Torahs cohanim so although it isnt a perfect translation one can see where it comes from

    health- i don’t know what the specific case is i was just saying weather or not i believe people should take things back im sorry if what i said sounds insensitive or anything similar to that it was out or ignorance of the case

    nem621
    Participant

    i am not sure what is better i personally believe that one can take something he himself said as it is is his personal honor but an institution like beis din should not because this is not personal honor it is rather the kovod of torah

    there is a case in Gittin were Rav(or rebbi im not so sure) and his B”D made the wrong valuation of a terrain, the mistake was more than 1/6 of the price, rav (rebbi still not sure) paskened that the object had to be taken back when asked if he didn’t hold like RSHBA”G that “ma koach B”D iaphe” what would people say about the power of beis din he said beis din should not take it back so that people remain honoring its rulings. notice how he took back what he previously said of taking back (gittin fourth perek i believe lamed daled amud beis but not so sure)

    just because Israel passed the US it doesn’t mean they have over half considering there is probably some other million Jews living outside the two of them. even if most live in Israel you have to take out all the jews in southern israel because it is not hallachically part of E”Y (kibush yachid shmei kibush? i believe we dont hold like that)

    i think phsat is that since they were all rashaim it is not such a tragedy and the reason why this are rashaim and not the others is because the others were somehow on a little higher madrega. the only problem i see is, i believe, there is a medrash that says that we don’t say all of hallel on the 7th day because the mitzrim (who were also H’ creations) died at the sea. it could be (have not heard it from anyone and im a 10th grader so im not reliable) that this is the reason why we don’t say a bracha for hallel on the seder.

    the practicality of this is very little so i do not know why even waste time with this but anyway

    i think that we should try to look at it in a favorable manner

    there is a story i heard that a MO couple was walking in a very charedi town in E”Y and a man threw bleach at her “for not wearing a wig” in a anger the husband took the very natural looking wig filled with bleach from his wife and threw it on the ground promising that she will never wear a wig again.

    why do i mention this story? because it shows how natural wigs can be and maybe you are very sure but in the sake of favorable judgement i think you can say that maybe you saw wrong

    what i mean is we have to help the state survive while obviously praying for geula and an actual frum state but this secular government is much better than many other options and one can be haredi and attend yeshiva with no problem and the army? well now they are instituting haredi brigades and if some one is capable of learning all day he is allowed to do so (and he should).

    for the people discussing the age there is a story were Rav Yaakov Yitzchok Ruderman was playing with a little girl he was told the little girl was 4 years old and he put her down. meaning that if a girl is four its already assur to touch her makin it obvious then that 16 is also assur
