Jews are required by Hashem and His Torah to both conform and to censor.
The idea otherwise is 100% directly coming from modern Goyish values.
The Rabbonim shlita can make a Gezeira that sheitels cannot be longer than, say, five inches, and anyone violating the Gezeira will no longer be welcome in any Shul and the community will no longer socialize or interact with that family until they come into compliance.
Yankel, do teshuva and everything will turn out alright.
Yankel, the ways of Hashem are mysterious.
Bravo! Thank you for speaking up. (Now expect to be hammered by the pro-pritzus crowd.)
Yankel, Yankel, Yankel, it must be Bashert that you don’t see the comments.
Mechallel Shabbos is absolutely positively NOT permitted.
Welcome back, Reb Wolf! (You’ll always be Reb to me.)
It’s good to “see” you again.
Being a “frum feminist” is akin to being a frum bacon connoisseur.
You are absolutely wrong. The sheltered teenagers struggle MUCH less than the unsheltered teenagers.
Every teenager should be sheltered from the secular world and all the crazy subjects in the world.
The Arab birthrate is on a consistent and continuing decline over the last several decades. Both in Israel and in the rest of the Arabic world.
(This comment is about a sidepoint you made. Your overall statistical point is likely correct.)
qwerty613: That’s complete hogwash and false. I’m no chosid here but Chasidim do not teach that whatsoever. You posted a complete canard. Furthermore, the guy from Monsey with the treif chickens was NOT chasdish; he was a bona fide Litvak.
It looks like all the geniuses are snowed in and having electrical outages (and their batteries burnt out). So we’ll throw out an “easy” freebie:
Find the sum of all distinct real values of x that satisfy the following equation:
.
(x^2 - 5x + 5)^(x^2 - 11x + 30) = 1.
(x² – 5x + 5)⁽ˣ²⁻¹¹ˣ⁺³⁰⁾ = 1
.
(Sorry; I posted the same equation above three times to insure at least one of them posts correctly to this forum’s software.)
And the same you do with HaRav Elazar Mann Shach ztvk”l
SQUARE_ROOT: This is rich. You’re a Chosid of HaGaon HaRav Avigdor Miller ztvk”l or do you just use him like a sponge when you need him but dump him like a rag when you don’t.
Like how you ignore EVERYTHING HaGaon HaRav Avigdor Miller ztvk”l says about the State of Israel and the Zionists.
YYA: There’s a clear shitta (which I believe is the majority shitta) that **any** exposure to frum Yidden makes a non-frum Jew NOT a tinok shenishba. (Despite all your taainos against this shitta.)
I believe they got a new hashgacha that is more widely accepted about 20 or so years ago. Prior to that they only used a less accepted hashgacha.
Jewish law doesn’t require following such an absurd law. (Especially considering they’d be training on non-Jewish values for child rearing.)
If someone doesn’t take the course, regardless of what happens subsequently, has no bearing whatsoever on how the parent is regarded.
It has always been the great desire of all righteous Jews to die Al Kiddush Hashem. Every righteous Jew hopes that when his time to leave this world comes, it comes about by him being killed for being a Jew.
These nurses are murderers. Deaths have already occurred due to their strike. They should all be summarily fired and permanently banned from ever again working in the health system.
YYA: Your count of total Jews is way off base. Where did you pull that figure?
Firstly, you’re probably including Goyim who call themselves Jews. (Non-Orthodox and Zionist political conversions and their offspring for centuries; so-called “patrilineal” Jews and their offspring for generations; etc.)
But that’s the smaller issue with your figure; you’re missing all the Jews who R”L shmaded to another religion and their offspring for millennia; all the Jews who R”L were born Jewish but considered themselves non-Jewish and their offspring for millennia; etc.

“החפץ חיים בהלכות לשון הרע כלל ח’ סעיף ה’ – אומר: “אותם האנשים שמכירם שיש בהם אפיקורסות מצווה לגנותם ולבזותם בין בפניהם ובין שלא בפניהם”.
ובהמשך- “אפיקורוס נקרא הכופר בתורה… ואפילו הוא אומר כל התורה כולה מן השמים חוץ מפסוק אחד…”
At the end of Shmiras HaLashon (Hilchos Rechilus 9:15), the Chofetz Chaim writes that the prohibitions against Lashon Hara and Rechilus do not apply to reshaim and kofrim and that it is, in fact, a mitzvah to mock such persons:
“מצוה לפרסם דעתם הכוזבת לעיני הכל ולגנותם, כדי שלא ילמדו ממעשיהם הרעים.”
“It is a mitzvah to make their false opinions public before all, and shame them so that others do not learn from their evil deeds.”
User176: Everything I said is 100% Toras Emes. Unfortunately 98% of Jews don’t believe in the Torah. You should know this youself. For every Torah observant Jew there’s 49 Reform, Conservative, Reconstructionist, secular and Open Orthodox Jews.
Rashi writes that Chazal say 80% of Yidden were unworthy of Yetzias Mitzrayim and died in Mitzrayim. The Mechilta (Yesh Omrim) says only 1 in 50 came out of Mitzrayim. The Seforim HaKedsohim similarly say, based on the Midrash Tanchuma, that when Moshiach comes bmehero byomeinu that only one in five Jews will be saved.
The Chasam Sofer (in his Toras Moshe on Parshas Va’eira) discusses the Chamushim ratio and emphasizes that the “refining” process is meant to separate those who have completely attached themselves to secular or “impure” ideologies from those who maintain a connection to Hashem.
The Chofetz Chaim often spoke about the Chevlei Moshiach and says that only those with strong Emunah will “stay on the table” and not fall through the holes.
