Torah Yiddishkeit always has had the concept of Gaonim, Reish Galusa, Raskbehag, Godol HaDor or whenever else you want to refer to it by.
How does it render price sorting ineffective?
I posted a letter signed by Rav Malkiel, Rav Salomon, Rav Shmuel Kaminetzky, Rav Aharon Schechter and five other rabbonim three years ago saying that parents do not need to vaccinate their children if they choose not to. The post wasn’t approved but it seems legit. It’s been making the rounds online in the last half a day.
Those who hate “only” religious Jews are the same anti-Semitic as those who hate all Jews.
When the pilot lied and said he’s returning to the terminal to drop off passengers who didn’t want to fly (since the flight was already delayed five hours) and instead took off into the air a few minutes after lying, a passenger or two should have immediately collapsed into the aisle and pretended to be having a medical attack and remained unresponsive until the plane landed and medical personnel came aboard to take him off.
They’re evil evil monsters. Their leaders kill one innocent child every Erev Pesach to use his blood to bake their “mitzvah matzah” with. Then they pretend it was a natural death due to being unvaccinated and contracting a contagious disease. They are also hellbent on dominating the entire Orthodox Jewish world as anyone who has accessed a copy of their secretive Protocols of the Leaders of Lev Tahor vividly knows.
We need Israeli commandos to storm into Guatamala to rescue these children the same way they heroically rescued Yossele Schumacher from another cult.
Almost everything published in the newspapers and online about them is true. Especially if it was in Mishpacha magazine. The lies come from Ami.
Their donors obviously don’t believe every news article and blog written about them from information fed by discontents.
How are vaccines potentially unsafe?
If the reason for refraining from saying it on Shabbos were Shabsai Tzvi, it wouldn’t make sense to then say it on Yuntif. So you must be incorrect.
Cover the lens.
The Agudah is a holy organization.
Measles is like chicken pox. The vast majority of of children can live though it just fine.
There’s real evidence that a placebo works in many cases even though medical science doesn’t acknowledge this.
Rav Ovadia zt’l was a minority opinion on this.
WB Torah613! Long time no see.
Did the Amish children who got measles spread it to any Amish children who were vaccinated?

Only the state can enact road tolls or car taxes, not any municipality.
Yes, superiority.
“But everyone who insists on zoning enforcement is an antisemite amirite?”
No. Lakewood zoning allows the kind of building that has occurred. Because the people’s representatives passed zoning regulations permitting such building in line with the citizen’s who elected them wishes.
Anti-Vaxxers explicitly rely on herd immunity to protect themselves; without herd immunity they couldn’t avoid getting the immunization (since they’d then be at serious risk of contracting the disease.)
So the anti-vaxxers need most everyone else to get immunized so that they can not get immunized. They don’t want most people to become anti-vaxxers because that would collapse their scheme.
Syag, my main takeaway is what I wrote in my first sentence.
The one way we must act is by doing a true teshuva.
Don’t make the mistake of thinking that Israel is not in golus or is safer from the goyim.
And Anti-Semitism has existed in America, strongly, before WWII. And existed, albeit under some veneer of politeness, after WWII.
Build more houses, more developments and welcome more Yiddishe kinder and mishpachas. Any amount of traffic is worth more Yiddishe nachas and families.
adocs: Who are the Afghanistanis from?
The main site always took a far more liberal POV in both the content of the articles as well as in the approved comments.
Dorah: I take it that you don’t believe the Jewish people are the Chosen Nation, over everyone else.
Can you please put cream cheese on mine?
Little: “It is not my place to assess them, nor to grade them in any ranking order.”
There seems to be a common misconception that we are unable to comparatively assess the level of various Gedolim. We can compare “levels” – in fact, we need to in order to judge who is an authority in the first place! If you can’t comapre levels then how are you to know that someoe is a godol? The fact that he is “accepted” as a godol only means that many people have judged his “level” to be that of a godol. But if you cannot compare levels, then these people have no right to accept him as a godol in the first place.
And the same common sense that tells you so-and-so stands out among his peers making him an authority, tells you that certain so-and-so’s stand out even more. Or less.
Part of knowing who to follow is to know who is greater. Godol mimenu b’chochma ubaminyan is an assessment that it legitimately made. And as Rav Shach writes – if you dont know who to follow, follow whoever is greater – and, he adds, you can of course tell who is greater. If you yourself dont know, then thats fine – not everyone can know the answer to all questions they encounter – but why in the world would you say nobody else can know?
And it’s an error in logic, too, because they themselves compared “levels” of other people! i.e.: “Rav Ovadia Yosef is the leading Sefardi posek of our times.” And how would they know this if you cannot compare him to other sefardi poskim? And how can one know whether “any of us are on the madreiga of assessing the ‘levels’ of other people” unless you assessed the levels of all those other people who said arent “on the “madgreigah” to do that?
So clearly, we can compare “levels”, its just that to some, certain comparisons are “obvious” and others are not. Well, to other people, perhaps who are more knowledgable and skilled in assessing these kinds of values, other comparisons are also obvious.
Since gefilte fish is a Hungarian-Jewish cuisine, truthfully everyone needs to patronize the Satmar gefilte fish recipe.
Except for Pesach. Then Klal Yisroel is noheg to use the Polish recipe for faltche fish.
I’m not sure that Iran are Bnei Yishmoel. They aren’t Arabs.
Many many Gedolim disagree with your R”Y.
The Rashkebhag is the Godol HaDor, of course.
Lakewood must allow building as many new homes for growing Yiddishe mishpachas. That’s first and foremost.
Never forget we’re in golus. Even in Eretz Yisroel.
Build Route 10 to ease congestion on Route 9.
Neville: There are a number of Chasidim posting even on this forum. (Not myself.)
