What’s a fleshing event? Do I want to know?
Search for a scent booster.
It’s easier to be happy with a bigger lot.
There is a big difference between discipline and what Dafbiyun describes here, which is pure physical abuse.
Fewer, not less.
It can buy you comfort, security and pleasure, which do contribute to happiness.
Yiddish as it’s spoken today is you learn all the easy words of archaic yiddish and those are the ones that survived.
Guardmytongue’s child once suggested that Pharaoh should have been friends with Haman. Should we shame him for his appalling statement?
To be fair while the opinion article is far from a valid representation of Torah, it represents Joseph’s beliefs quite well.
Political unity is bad.
There is no “they” or a single reason, nor is this a new phenomenon. This is a choice people make for various reasons.
Why is it so appalling that there exists someone who disagrees with your opinion?
TheFakeMaven, apparently there are many people who were raised frum yet “don’t even know what religion is”. So tell us.
Since you know so much, explain it to us.
It’s a political thing.
Expulsion is a last resort for after all other disciplinary measures fail. In the case that the letter was written about, it seems the yeshivah did not make any attempt to stop the bullying.
I’d forgotten just how far my fight with Malbim went. Those were the days.
An agnostic is one who does not know. One can be agnostic while being an atheist or a theist.
I’m only claiming that someone who does not believe in G-d is an atheist. The word atheist means someone who does not believe in G-d.
As for Athiests in foxholes, as there is no such thing as an Athiest, this is irrelevant.TheFakeMaven, a person who is not a theist is automatically an atheist. In order to be a non-believer, one simply has to not believe. Only a person who believes is a believer.
Contrary to popular belief, beer is not a waste of calories.
Being an elementary school mechanech does not qualify you to say that.
No, I’m simply stating that there are both better and worse things to do than drink beer.
No, it’s like a lease. People would sign a prenup that states that the marriage is for a specified amount of time and can be renewed after that time if both parties agree. It’s everything but the long term commitment.
In that case, the yeshivah bears a lot of responsibility for this.
Worse they drink beer than other other things they might do.
Of course the bullies should be disciplined. But it seems here like nobody is doing anything at all to stop this. Why is the yeshivah allowing physical violence to happen?
APY was in Yeshiva at a time when people still listened to talk radio.
Joseph, children are young people. That’s just what they are. They’re people, and they are young.
Mama1, Joseph doesn’t think women should do things.
Do they want to listen to talk radio?
Joseph, you’re treating young people who break the law wrong.
The five fifth graders should be treated like any other criminal children.
Instead of consuming the flesh of animals and drinking alcoholic beverages, just drink an egg cream. You have to drink it right away, so you’ll know when you’ve chilled too long.
Don’t equate fighting with bullying. A one time incident in which one child hurts another is very different from a case where a child is being bullied by a bunch of other kids. A child who is bullied like what’s described in the letter is likely to develop PTSD.
The other boys should not be expelled either. It’s not their fault that nobody ever taught them that hitting people is wrong.
If getting married with the intention of getting divorced after were an option, people would do that.
Pure free market capitalism is something that never existed. Much of what the government does, even if it’s libertarianish, violates that.
Is a short marriage worse than no marriage?
If the letter is correct, absolutely call the police. Getting expelled is bad, but anyone who would threaten to expel someone for seeking justice against physical violence is probably just a violent person trying to protect himself.
Well first of all, pink is ugly, so men will think that you have reasons that you must uglify yourself. Second, there is no pink brighter than the pink of a pale person’s swollen skin.
