And then there’s a zivug sheini for some folks.
flowers: What lilmod was saying is that up to the first 40 days after conception you can daven the baby be a boy, but cannot daven that baby be a girl. But that you could daven, in general but not regarding a specific pregnancy, that you have a baby girl.
Surely there’s a girl somewhere in the wide world who is a pea in the same pod and of the same disposition as this angry fellow and thus a suitable match for him.
lilmod, what was put in cherem?
They seem to almost have raised the amount needed. How’s one to verify this is a legit situation?
I was about to post the same point as DY.
Using Q instead of K is more typically done by academic-types that feel compelled to stand out differently than the average man, thinking it enhances their appearance as an educated fellow.
SYMS went bankrupt because they bought out Filene’s Basement after significantly overpaying. Their SYMS stores were consistently profitable.
How was Poland backwards when they were home educating girls without school, the same way our bubbes did for thousands of years throughout Jewish history.
If someone already has a boy but no girls, I’d think it correct to daven for a girl as the obligation of the mitzvah of pru u’rvu is to have both.
I post very infrequently.
Bikur Cholim. Available to volunteer 24/7.
It’s best to daven for a boy, as that’s preferable. (Apologies in advance to subscribers of modern notions of equality.)

miami: That’s all assuming the conversion was properly effective by the prospective’s kabolas ol mitzvos of all 613.
Esther did not voluntarily marry Achashveiros. She was forced to against her will.
They didn’t have lined paper (or parchment) in the times of the Baal Shem Tov.
iac, what did Rabbi Sherrer say regarding the exodus of Hungarian Jewry from Europe (which was my point)?
lilmod, do you manage without replacing a dress more than once in six years?
NCB: CTL’s comment makes sense. What he was saying is that a born Jew is a Jew even if he eats pork every day. He wasn’t discussing any Jews obligation to keep the 613. His underlying point was that if a gentile is seeking to convert, s/he must agree to accept and keep the 613, otherwise the conversion won’t be effective.
CTL, most of the very religious Hungarian Jewry left Europe within a few years after WWII.
CTL, your role in this thread is to direct the OP to an Italian custom designed suit costing, minimally, $750.
What type of hashkafa is the school you’re in and what type of hashkafa school do you think is better for you? Are you a boy?
lilmod, do you also refuse to believe reports, due to l”h, that Bibi Netanyahu, Chuck Schumer and Bernie Sanders don’t keep Shabbos?
It’s also possible, if not likely, there was no heter given. The only source for it is the head of the GOP-Israel, in Israel, vaguely telling a news outlet he heard second hand that there was a heter. That’s where all the reports of a heter come from.
How often do you need a new suit? I still have my Syms suit; even the hanger it’s on says Syms.
Whata shame they closed. The BASH was a real simcha!
Current science is often later overturned.
huju: Out-of-town. AKA Jewish-speak for outside the New York Metropolitan Area.
Is mentioning that Henry Kissinger married a gentile also l”h, lilmod?
You make the same bracha achrona you’d make after drinking bleach.
It’s okay. You can admit his sharp response was much too difficult for you to retort to; and you’re hoping overnight you’ll find some semblance of a response. 😉
squeak is very accepting. He’s a true gem.
Making sure the rabbi applies halacha even when applying the halacha won’t make him popular.
All poskim hold it is strictly prohibited to enter the sanctuary of a church, on the basis of avoda zora.
squeak, my eight year old offer to lunch still stands.
I thought you are the President.
Mazal Tov. May we be zoche to hearing squeak’s divrei chochma ad meah v’esrim shana!
It’s strictly prohibited to even ENTER a beis avoda zora, even IF they weren’t worshipping the avoda zora.
I’ve seen photographs of Fred being honored at shul ceremonies, having donated the land and money to build the shul.
If they asked a “rabbi” like Haskel Lookstein, who the RCA condemned for going to church, it isn’t worth much.
Fred Trump, Donald’s father, was an ohev yisroel who donated money to shuls and other Jewish causes. As an aside, a large portion of his properties he built in Brooklyn and Queens, he sold to Jewish homeowners.
And most American voters voted against Bill Clinton both times he won. OTOH, George W. Bush won a majority of the vote during his reelection.
LC: That doesn’t contradict what I said. Most American voters voted against Clinton.
Rabbi Hershel Schachter said following Daas Torah is required. See the thread about marrying whoever the Rov tells you that you have to.

LB: How would you know that any posters here contribute to halachipedia?
No, those who oppose it don’t oppose it due to halacha or Judaism. They oppose it for non-religious reasons.
