    Better question – can an Amaleki Ger (convert) commit suicide to fulfill the chiyuv (in nach there is a story of dovid hamelech who killed a ger amelki, and he retains his status after gerus.)

    you wish – the Mossad would never recruit anything with a semblance to frum people – it is against their very being! 🙂

    not so funny – my uncle was mugged outside a fancy hotel by Heathrow on his date, were a group of arabs took his wallet, watch and phone. Not such an awe-inspiring moment! He married her, lol

    some cds write a tnai that you cannot copy. this tenai is not halachically binding, because if the mecher would be botul you can copy it, then take it back to the shop and return the cd, and they must give your money back.

    there is ‘tzvei dinim’ in brisk bochurim. those who think that smoking makes you automatically yeshivish and the worlds #1 bochur is not the person you want for your shidduch. And, there is R’ Avrohom Yehoshua and R’ Dovid – which do you mean?

    The gemara kesubos 17a brigns story of tanna who danced with kalla on his shoulders. His talmidim asked him if they could do the same, and he said ‘if a woman is like a peice of wood to you, then by all means do it. if not…’ I think this suitably answers al your proffs from roshei yeshieves who went to mixed weddings. Are you the same? A boy went to R’ Elya Lopian zt”l (rosh yeshiva of gateshead) asking permission to go to a mixed wedding, saying he won’t be affected by these things and can control himself. R’ Elya said ‘I am eighty and blind in one eye, and i look down in the streeet when i walk, and i still am scared i will see an improper sight. YOu are a teenager…” Is there anything more to add? I rest my case.
