    So start a thread that you find interesting and worthy of discussion.

    Much better than complaining.

    Dear YWN Username:

    The very term “significant other” is a disgusting goyish terminology. We Yidden only have a Choson/Kallah or a Husband/Wife. Nothing else and nothing in-between. Until a couple is engaged they are strangers to each other, no different than when they first met on their first date. It is pure pritzus for any outsider to refer or discuss them as a thing or for either of them to discuss their dating, whomever he/she is, with someone other than their parents/rebbeim.

    CA: The kehila in Klal Yisroel that is the most anti-“shtultz”is Satmar.

    Try coming to a Friday night minyan (with or without children) for the first time, where no one knows you, in any Satmar Shul dressed in the most opposite of Chasidish clothing (or Litvish, MO, or Chasidish if you want), and you probably won’t receive less than 10 invitations to come home with someone for the Shabbos seuda.

    The OP did NOT ask to take a vote who should/will be Moshiach. It simply asked who do you think are the most likely candidates that will end up being Moshiach.

    CA: The argument presented was that it is nullified because the Goyim gave permission. But the Goyim only gave permission for a small part of what the Zionists took.

    If the Goyim gave permission to make a state just in, say, Sfas, it is illogical to claim the vows are nullified and they can take 100x what the Goyim gave them.

    CA/RW: So what? The point that was advanced here was that the Shalosh Shavuos was nullified because the United Nations gave permission for a Jewish State. If that’s the basis to nullify the Shalosh Shavuos, then on that basis the nullification is only applicable to the Jewish zone and not to the Jerusalem (international) zone or to the Arab zone, since no permission from the UN (or from the British) was ever granted over those territories.

    A later war isn’t a basis to nullify the Shalosh Shavuos.

    “Britain agreed to the vote so that’s why it was binding”

    Okay. The original vote split Palestine into a Jewish state and an Arab state, with Jerusalem being an international zone. In that case, Israel only has permission to control the original Jewish zone and not the Jerusalem zone or the Arab zone.

    If the UN vote permitting a State is binding, then the UN votes partitioning Palestine into a Jewish state and an Arab state, with Jerusalem being an international zone, (and future UN votes demanding Israel leave the Arab zones) is equally binding.

    BTW, I take full credit for Reb Volf having this massive annual hangup about his failing to get drunk on Purim. If you’ll look through the forum archives you’ll find me needling him for it year after year. It’s left a deep scar on his psych.

    All the in Purim spirit, of course!

    AAQ: Au contraire. Today, in modern liberal politically correct society, it is popular and brownie-points awarding, to say do not drink/I don’t drink. We have to worry that those who wear a sign saying I don’t drink on purim/I don’t get drunk on purim, are saying so to sound politically correct and goodie -goodies rather than any interest in doing the Mitzvah correctly.

    On the other hand, those that the whole year barely drink, but on purim force themselves against their natural inclination to get drink purely lsheim Mitzvah, are true heroes.

    “First, Chananya Weissman has made shidduchim by directly introducing Jewish singles to each other, who are now married to each other.”

    So now he’s a Shadchan, too? A Shadchan who is against Shadchanim; this must be a first.

    “Second, Chananya Weissman has made shidduchim by personally organizing over 100 events for Jewish singles.

    Third, Chananya Weissman has made shidduchim by encouraging mixed-seating at Jewish weddings”

    Your “Second” and “Third” result in more boys/girls hookups than shidduchim. I know that proponents are in denial about this fact, but just take a little visit to the Upper West Side, where the “frum” hookup culture thrives on these events.
