Sam Klien, we are not your patients.
We humans like cute, pretty or majestic-looking animals. Lions look regal, while hyenas look malicious. We also prefer eagles over vultures. Just because vultures are ugly.
Giving a lion a filling takes real foolish bravery.
Names aren’t only for humans. We give them to inanimate objects like boats and buildings too. Cities, businesses, some plants, why not name a lion?
Inter-faith prayer doesn’t work for anyone. Every religion believes the others are wrong.
All humans are fools. Fools have rights. And yes, the U.S. is a republic, but the same message board license (similar to a poetic license) that allows imperfect grammar also allows us to sometimes use a word that may not be exactly accurate.
Goofus, who here has no way support their kids? Nobody said they have trouble supporting kids.
Once you start restricting voting privelages it may as well be ancient Greece or a monarchy instead of modern democracy. The point in democracy is to give everyone a voice in the government.
Because we don’t see people, we see black and white letters.
There is a card game called Cholent: The Game.
Boox Buki is a Boox, not a Nuk.
Literacy and intelligence are not the same thing.
I think your list of avoda zara is your avoda zara.
Sam Klein, just because some people have those luxuries doesn’t mean there aren’t people who genuinely don’t have enough money for food, clothing and tuition.
No offense, but the fact that saying “no offense” actually makes your words more offensive makes it useful when you want to offend someone.
The people who are outraged at the killing of the lion are the ones who are objecting civilly. The others are there for a sick kind of enjoyment similar to killing a lion for sport.
Give me an example of a bad result of the current CR arrangement before I decide.
If something is very important one is even permitted to politely ask one’s mother for it in certain cases.
Princess Leeba, why in the world are you coming here and telling people of unspecified gender not to talk to the opposite gender?
Because it’s a recipe for disaster.
I like my neighbor’s dog more than I like any of the people I haven’t heard of.
Define “banging it out”.
Lions aren’t stupid. They just don’t have opposable thumbs or human skill. Because they aren’t humans. They were never meant to be humans. And they know they aren’t supposed to be human, so they follow lion rules. Even if lions could use guns, a lion wouldn’t be in charge unless there was a fight.
But what if scientists invented swim clothes that stay modest even in the water?
What is it about flowers that makes it not tznius sorry?
Lions are allowed to fight other lions and kill them. It’s not against lions’ laws. But that doesn’t make it any less wrong for a human to kill a lion, especially without a fight. (Shooting another lion is against lions’ laws. Lions never shoot at other lions.)
I have a solution to make everyone healthier. Simply find a cure for every disease!
I was referring to the person Joseph might be, not myself.
Or lorem ipsum. Most of us can’t tell the difference.
We are often not aware of the other person’s gender. Even in cases where we think we know, we may not know. Oomis could be a 25 year old Arab man living in South Dakota. Joseph could be a Liberal Democrat 95 year old Canadian entrepreneur with a pet Galapagos Giant Tortoise. Popa-bar-abba–well, popa could be anything.
You do need to enumerate to answer the question. I read your post but thought I had misread it because it is not relevant to the topic.
So what point were you making, Albert?
Maybe some people have a phobia of fast cashiers.
Some are mature enough. Some are not.
Marriage isn’t something to rush into.
I don’t like it but I unhate it a little.
Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.
Joseph: Note that I also only asked.
NeutiquamErro, you didn’t say how it matters.
Idioms don’t have to make sense. So since this is a made up idiom, it doesn’t even have to have a sensible origin:
The carrots speak seven times.
I dont like this thread… There are good Jews and bad Jews. Jews are not at all immune from the trappings and dangers that are out there. There are Jewish philanthropists, there are Jewish murderers. There are Jewish geniuses and there are Jewish dummies.
To claim or even try and postulate that Yidden are better than anyone else, is silly, ridiculous and dangerous.
We are DIFFERENT – not better. We are supposed to be a ‘light unto the nations’ because we have the Torah. We should be proud of that.
The moment we start to think of ourselves as ‘better’ is the moment when we can start to justify all sorts of chillul hashem.
Assur things stay assur on a taanis.
