Mendelsohn’s book was banned because of דעות כוזבות that he had before he wrote his book. His children converted and intermarried because of those דעות כוזבות. Read what Chazal said about מרים בת בלגה.
The Torah isn’t written to a biblical people of the past. It’s written to us. It isn’t parables. When we read Krias Shema every day, in the second parsha we are mekabel the Ol Mitzvos that Hashem commands us every single day.
United Hatzalah isn’t an American organization.
משה קבל תורה מסיני ומסרה ליהושע ויהושע לזקנים וזקנים לנביאים ונביאים מסרוה לאנשי כנסת הגדולה
From there it continued to the תנאים and אמוראים and the rest is history. We don’t learn hal
achos from pesukim anymore. We learn the translation of the words and we look to Rashi to understand what it means. Rashi didn’t make anything up. He used all the knowledge up to his time to explain the passuk. Everything we follow today is a continuation. There are many “flavors” of Rabbanim today. Find one that fits for you.The Rebbe had many chassidim, mostly inherited from his father and grandfather. He had a yeshiva wherever he was a Rav. The current Satmar chassidus is built on the foundation of those chassidim and talmidim who survived.
Again, The Rema is Halacha. Mesorah predates the Rema. Ashkenazi Mesora was recorded before the Rema. Maharil and Rav Aizik Tirnau are the fathers of Ashkenazi Mesora.
The Satmar Rebbe was a Rebbe from a very young age. After he got married he lived near his shver for a year and then he moved to Satmar where he set up his “court”. He lived there for 6 years until his first Rabbinical post but he kept his place in Satmar. He visited periodically and one of his daughters was niftar there in 1921/22 and is buried there.
Elections for Rabbinical posts happened all over the place. The fact that there was a disagreement is meaningless.
Many niggunim that you sing today are chassidishe niggunim. Your acceptance of the niggun doesn’t change that.
The Satmar Rebbe wasn’t a Ruv of a “town”. Satu Mare is a city by the definition of the times. He was a Rebbe of chassidim from 1905 before he was a Ruv.
The Yekkes aren’t looking to the Rama. Their mesora predates him by several hundred years. The Rama also wasn’t alone. The Maharshal disagreed with him on many issues.
The Magen Avrohom and the Gr”A inserted kabbalistic things into practice as well. Stop hating on chassidim.
If the Dayeinu you’re referring to is the popular one most of us learned in preschool you’re out of luck. It predates R’ Shmuel Kunda Z”L by a century.
What kind of energy or frequency does the ground absorb when plowing with an ox and a donkey vs 2 oxen or 2 donkeys?

When @hakatan says Mizrachi he isn’t referring to Sefardim.
Mashiach isn’t a concept. He will be a living human being. A direct descendant of Dovid Hamelech who was a direct descendant of Yehuda the son of Yaakov Avinu as clearly enumerated in the final pesukim of Megilas Rus. A person can have lots of middos in common with Yehuda but if he isn’t a direct paternal descendant he isn’t of Shevet Yehuda.
@rescue The shevatim don’t represent the months. They aren’t constellations. They were actual live people. All non convert Jews are directly descended from one of the 12 sons of Yaakov Avinu.

Weiss has nothing to do with EY. He�s a litvishe boy from Flatbush who lost his mind.
It was the UK that provided the WMD intel on Iraq. You never learned in Satmar.
AI doesn�t know how to distinguish between chassidish and yeshivish. It�s a classic milsa d�avida legluyei. He was born a litvak. Lived his life as a litvak. Did what he did as a litvak. It�s said that he did teshuva. AFAIK he�s no longer among the living. I don�t know where you were when the scandal came out but everybody knew his name, where he belonged, where he davened, and where he said a daf yomi shiur.
A contract is only valid if it�s agreed upon by both parties. This isn�t a contract. It�s Robin Hood.
That *might* have been commendable if they actually wanted to support Torah. They have very different ideas about what their taxes should be funding.
You�re the one who seems to have implied that because I said that the mekor of Choshen Mishpat is the sugyos of Seder Nezikin, therefore those learning the sugya should be able to answer halachic shaalos.
Learning the sugya is the beginning. The svaros of Abaye and Rava sharpen the minds of those who learn them. Nobody will get semicha from just Tur and Shulchan Aruch.
I don�t advocate cheating on taxes or claiming benefits and government programs that one isn�t entitled to. I certainly hope that my rabbanim aren�t permitting that. I was raised by upstanding parents.
Learning a sugya and knowing it well doesn�t give the biggest talmid chochom the authority to answer shailos. That�s what an actual Rov is for.
All these things that you talk about regarding halachos of driving and cars belong to middos. Some people have good middos without being talmidei chachomim and some talmidei chachomim may be sorely lacking in middos.
We don�t ask our Halachic questions of random talmidei chachamim. We ask them of Rabbis who have semicha. Not all musmachim have semicha in choshen mishpat. Those who do have semicha in choshen mishpat started with the sugyos of Seder nezikin.
You do NOT respect Rabbis. You inserted yourself into a halachic discussion with leitzanus before knowing any actual opinions. You see the Rabbis as inherently flawed which makes you an am ha�aretz. That�s nothing to be proud of.
Car damages aren�t more difficult than �bull fighting�. The basis for nezikin is the beginning of Bava Kama. The halachos are derived from the �bull fighting�. Sifrei SHU�T are all applying �bull fighting� into modern day situations.
Yud Tes Kisleiv was celebrated by Chabad before the �current� Rebbe�s grandfather was born.
Shulchan Aruch Harav doesn�t belong exclusively to Chabad. It�s no less valid than the Chayei Adam (which may or may not have predated it and if yes not by much) and the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch. Shulchan Aruch Harav is mentioned in the Mishna Berurah, referred to as Shulchan Aruch HaGRaZ.
The mispronunciations are Yinglish.
Apparently you don�t know anything that predates zionism. Different communities had their own yomim tovim dating back centuries. If it doesn�t mean anything to you, ignore it.
There is no difference between tikkun or a sandwich. It�s about making a bracha.
Food on a yartzeit is so people should make a Bracha le�ilui nishmas the tzaddik.
I don�t speak for Chabad so I can�t comment on your second issue.
There are jobs that you don�t have to work until 5PM on Fridays during the winter. There are thousands of people working for goyim that are in Shul for mincha erev Shabbos no matter how early shkiya is. If you work for a business that won�t let you out early enough maybe that�s not the place you should be working.
1) Nobody is forced to work until 5 on Fridays in the winter.
2) Most of us make it into Shabbos by the skin of our teeth no matter how late Shabbos starts.
Maybe Hashem is telling us that our actions and our votes aren�t going to help any more.

Have you ever learned Chovas Halevavos? Your inane comment implies that you haven�t!
The Yiddish language forum ivelt has a system that has been working for years.There is no shmutz because people actually follow the rules. If Yeshiva World has users that would post shmutz they need to do some self reflection.
@Ex-CTLawyer
It begs the question why moderators are unpaid. In my honest opinion comments should be immediately posted with registered users having a report button that would alert moderators to possible issues that could bring penalties for both commenters and when warranted abusive reporters. Ivelt has an amazing system that has worked for years.
I very rarely log in anymore. I logged in today to thank the letter writer for speaking to my pain.
Your command of the English language shows that wherever it is that you learned it, it was �optionary�.
If you�re looking for �vibes� look elsewhere. It�s a serious Yeshiva.
I don�t know why a �heimishe Englisher� couldn�t fit into the yeshiva. Plenty of chassidishe bochurim have learned there.
How much are your vehicle expenses monthly? How much do you spend on bottled water a month? How much do you spend on non essential food and beverages a month?
� Another problem with Satmar is:
They do not live in Olam HaZeh; they live in their
own little world, that excludes everyone except them.�If you indeed live in Olam HaZeh as you claim you are susceptible to Olam HaZeh problems such as illness (lo aleinu). As such you or a family member can need hospitalization. You are certainly welcome to turn down the delicious home made meals.
In a Secular Marriage aka Civil Union the �wife� is halachically a penuya which results in non mamzeirim. When they are forced into a Halachic marriage which is an institution they don�t respect it�s more likely to create mamzeirim.
The Divrei Chaim was never a Rosh Yeshiva. His father was already a Chossid before he got married. He believed that Chassidus was necessary for 100-150 years and then all should return to the basics.
The Divrei Chaim of Tzanz ZT�L who was niftar almost 149 years ago said in his time that it�s more important to learn Torah (what they call �nigleh� in lubavitch).
You don�t get to argue with the Magen Avrohom or call to abolish his words. You have every right to follow other shittos.
He was convicted for mislabeling business transactions to cover up an unnamed crime.
He wasn�t convicted for r**e. That would have been a felony with jail time.
I would recommend avoiding Legacy Media.
When he was born very few people were from �Toof Kif� they said the last two numbers. I was born in the States as were my parents and 3 of my grandparents. I was raised that �77 is only for legal purposes. I was born in 5737.
The Gemara mentions both ???? and ????? as different places. One has nothing to do with the other.
