popa_bar_abbaParticipant
Ok, so you agree with them on everything?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantBut Nixon was spying on his political enemies in an attempt to better his political standing, whilst the NSA (under Obama) over extended their role in “Homeland Security”
Says who? They wouldn’t even answer a direct question from a member of congress who asked if they spy on congress.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI would eat it while catching alligators!
I would eat it while biting all the ketchup haters!
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIf you hold of psychology, wouldn’t it make sense to agree with it’s primary organization?
No, why would it?
If I agree with Judaism, does that mean I agree with the Reform Movement which is probably its primary organization?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantOh, you got me there!
Circular reasoning for the win!
popa_bar_abbaParticipantThe American Psychological Association lists CBT as a empirically validated treatment.
Now we agree with the APA? lol
Go look up what they say about medications.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantCBT is narishkeit
popa_bar_abbaParticipantAnd I don’t think an attack on the institution is an attack on the member rabbonim. It’s an attack on whomever was responsible for the release.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantThe rabbis you mention agree with us on this. Ask them.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI don’t think he’s neeman for anything. I don’t think I’d let an agunah remarry if he was the only witness in the world that the husband died.
I don’t know if chashud amamona is chashud ashevuasah, but I do know that chashud akol hatorah kula is chashud aeidus isha.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIf preventing reform’s spread would have meant accepting their kashrus, gittin, and geirus, then it would not have been worth it.
The same goes for the YCT apikorsim. I’d rather be the only frum Jew left in the world than accept their kashrus, gittin, and geirus.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI’m not that rich. Ford.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIt’s ok, next generation you’ll be the one who can afford to support a son-in-law in learning, so your daughters will get shidduchim.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantAnd I think your position is ignorance.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantCould you please support yourself with evidence?
Westen, D., Novotny, C., and Thompson-Brenner, H. (2004). The empirical status of empirically supported therapies: Assumptions, methods, and findings. Psychological Bulletin, 130, 631-663.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIt’s narishkeit. The “studies” are bogus.
Hagah atzmecha, the studies show they can cure anxiety in 10 sessions or something, yes? Do you know anyone who was cured in 10 sessions? No.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIt isn’t salty enough!!!!
popa_bar_abbaParticipantHe actually said the arab spring. But then we asked him which season, and he said season spring.
January 6, 2014 10:06 pm at 10:06 pm in reply to: Making Shabbos for the first time! Need help! #998441popa_bar_abbaParticipantGet an extra bottle of whiskey. If you have enough whiskey, nobody misses the rest.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantMost CBT practitioners use psychotherapy for themselves…
popa_bar_abbaParticipantit’s narishkeit
popa_bar_abbaParticipantI dont think many people from the Hebrew Institute of Riverdale are marrying many people from Borough Park
They certainly won’t be once they all have a chezkas safek goyim and mamzerim.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantDamoshe:
I’m not sure how accepting his geirus is not the issue at hand. If he isn’t bound by the torah, then certainly you can’t accept his geirim. How is that “dragging other things into it”.
zdad: Ok, fine, you win. We had tropper so now we shouldn’t keep the torah anymore.
January 5, 2014 2:59 pm at 2:59 pm in reply to: Do you expect your husband to wash dishes after he eats…? #999493popa_bar_abbaParticipantA man who washes dishes is no different from a woman who plays hockey.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantHow many are there? What’s the difference how many?
And why does it matter where they are moving?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantPolitics? Nobody in their right mind would accept a Weiss ger. I certainly wouldn’t. I wouldn’t give him an aliya in shul, or count him to a minyan, or allow him to marry. I’d probably even allow his wife to remarry without a get.
I assume that was reason enough for the rabbanut
popa_bar_abbaParticipantTo paraphrase Alan Dershowitz, the RCA is not in touch with American Orthodoxy.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIt is quite awful what happened to him. He died without dying, so that by the time he dies nobody will really care because he was already dead for 10 years.
January 2, 2014 7:17 pm at 7:17 pm in reply to: Do you expect your husband to wash dishes after he eats…? #999477popa_bar_abbaParticipantWorst thread idea ever. Which female mod let this through.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantNo, I’m saying she doesn’t think her clearly abusive elementary school was messed up because of the stockholm syndrome
popa_bar_abbaParticipantStockholm syndrome.
January 1, 2014 2:20 pm at 2:20 pm in reply to: Shidduchim – NASI's escrow program has run its course #998096popa_bar_abbaParticipantMaybe it would help if everyone bought day old rolls instead.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantIf some of the snow is eaten, it must be with a utensil and not just with your mouth.
January 1, 2014 1:20 pm at 1:20 pm in reply to: Shidduchim – NASI's escrow program has run its course #998094popa_bar_abbaParticipantPopa, that’s true unless there are enough baguettes for everyone
No, that would just cause a redefinition of who is a baguette and who is a challa roll.
January 1, 2014 1:19 pm at 1:19 pm in reply to: Should every kollel guy be called Rabbi or Mr.? #996909popa_bar_abbaParticipantSome settle for R’
popa_bar_abbaParticipantOk,
I dreamed a dream. In my dream, there was a pink jaguar chasing me. Then I woke up.
January 1, 2014 3:15 am at 3:15 am in reply to: Shidduchim – NASI's escrow program has run its course #998088popa_bar_abbaParticipantIt’s like a bakery. Everyone wants the french baguette, but eventually even the round challah roll gets bought.
December 31, 2013 7:06 pm at 7:06 pm in reply to: InShidduchim.com: Is That the Jewish Way? #1216523popa_bar_abbaParticipantRivky paced back and forth across the room, stopping only to avoid bumping into her doubles and triples and quadruples who were all getting in one another’s way.
She furrowed her brow, and smiled a wrinkly smile, then made a wrinkly frown. Surely there was some way to make NASI pay for all the shidduchim she had made. Sure, the clones were only a few days old, but they appeared old, and she should get the bonus!!
December 31, 2013 6:15 pm at 6:15 pm in reply to: Kid Appearing Unconscious After Tonsillectomy #996705popa_bar_abbaParticipantOk, let’s use my language. Most people don’t use the term “dead” interchangeably with “brain dead”.
December 31, 2013 6:14 pm at 6:14 pm in reply to: Shidduchim – NASI's escrow program has run its course #998056popa_bar_abbaParticipantI actually think the reason it didn’t succeed is because people perceived it as a slight to older girls.
It might help them to be perceived as slight.
December 31, 2013 5:29 pm at 5:29 pm in reply to: Shidduchim – NASI's escrow program has run its course #998054popa_bar_abbaParticipantThey should have asked angvir for advice.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantDecember 31, 2013 5:26 pm at 5:26 pm in reply to: Kid Appearing Unconscious After Tonsillectomy #996702popa_bar_abbaParticipantoh, I’m so sorry you were misled.
As the law of the land stands the kid is dead.
I’m not sure what that is supposed to mean. Does the English language follow state law?
popa_bar_abbaParticipantHow many are there?
December 31, 2013 5:23 pm at 5:23 pm in reply to: Shidduchim – NASI's escrow program has run its course #998051popa_bar_abbaParticipantMore likely because people weren’t willing to put down that kind of money, and there was limited publicity because people weren’t doing it.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantDear Angvir,
You seem to be an expert on every yeshiva, since you state that no other yeshiva is an option for a serious learning boy. Please then will you catalogue for us 20 or 30 other yeshivos and what you can tell us about them.
Love,
Popa bar Abby
December 31, 2013 5:08 pm at 5:08 pm in reply to: Program for Writing Seforim (advice needed) #996664popa_bar_abbaParticipantMicrosoft word is plenty sufficient for this.
December 31, 2013 4:49 pm at 4:49 pm in reply to: Kid Appearing Unconscious After Tonsillectomy #996695popa_bar_abbaParticipantI don’t mean to discuss brain death. I’m just pointing out that the hospital’s liability is what is really driving this.
But if you must discuss brain death, google Steven Thorpe and Gloria Cruz.
December 31, 2013 3:58 pm at 3:58 pm in reply to: Program for Writing Seforim (advice needed) #996661popa_bar_abbaParticipantMicrosoft Word.
popa_bar_abbaParticipantYes, but your name is Ask Angvir. You are supposed to give US answers.
