Re: Women in Jewish magazines
Are the ones who 'yell' the loudest always right?Let's weigh the cost for each side. Publication stands up for "women's rights"=loses subscribers, advertisers, risks being banned. Publication stands up for "higher levels of tznius" = loses maybe a few subscribers (who probably were to "sophisticated" to read anything that the magazine was publishing anyway) Quotes around words to imply the exaggerating January 01, 2018, 01:57:14 PM |

Re: Do you Daven?
Here is my theory: Most married males, over time, begin to daven more often. This often occurs as they are raising kids and sending them off to school, and recognize that they should be some form of a role model if they want their kids to get up for minyan in yeshiva.I think there are a few categories of people. There are those that truly don't believe, there are those that deep down believe but are not willing to push themselves, there are those that truly believe and try, but may slip up occasionally. This is true for all mitzvos, including davening. If you went through your entire life doing things by rote and not by having a meaningful relationship with God, then the second it gets rough (or you find that there are enough people like you) you will slack off. And maybe not show up/daven at all. The difference between our father's generation and our generation was that in some sense, lines were drawn more clearly. To deviate would put you in a different group. January 10, 2018, 06:17:46 PM |
