Re: Law School
Not quite sure what the difference between a frum man and a frum woman is. Both are frum, both keep Shabbos/YT. Why is it "normal" if a frum guy works in big law but not normal/doable for a frum woman? It's almost like Jews are stuck in the 1800s while the rest of the world has moved on.Oh, it's because frum women help their husbands fullfil the obligation to bear children. After that female mothers are the needed to nurture the young children. Is this news to you? October 26, 2017, 07:29:35 AM |

Re: Law School
So you're telling me that non-Jewish women either don't have kids, or they have kids but they don't nurture their children? Wow, that's really interesting. Correct. Non Jewish professional women almost never have kids before 30 (or 35+ if they are very career oriented). And even then they only have a couple max.. Jewish girls are educated to observe the Torah which commands a man to have at least two kids ASAP. This has nothing to do with chulent. It's just reality. An apple is just an apple.

Re: Law School
-1 on the first statement. Plenty of non Jewish professional women who have kids before 30. I know people like this that I work with, that I went to school with, etc. You don't strike me as a guy who has any non-Jewish friends. So your statement is based on a sample size of what? 2 people? Maybe 3 if you're one of the more open minded people in Lakewood. A) correct that I have no non Jewish friends, but have worked with hundreds of non Jewish coworkers. Don't recall any that had kids before 30 but it's definitely possible. (- besides for one very very religious Muslim, who's husband from Islamabad insisted on it... Long story). (I did have male co-workers though that had wives around 30 w kids... Those women didn't have much of a carreer.) B) I did hear Rav shechters take on this recently on the headlines podcast...

Re: Do you Daven?
Please explain to me why it's an issue?If we define fake frumness as acting frum but not having any relationship with gd (ie not davening to him etc), then I hear what you are saying.

Re: Do you Daven?
The big issue for me with all this is that the the primary source of yiras shomayim is only absorbed by children directly from their parents. It is not something that is taught academically for the most part. So if the parents are very lacking, the kids are totally lost. They will probably end up orthoprax at best.

Re: More concerned with the way others dress than hechsher?
not sure your point ? You are either dimwitted or deaf. I dont drink stam yaynam, I said it should be repealed. These moronic attacks are childish. You clearly have not learned nuanced discussion techniques.There are very clear processes and procedures in halacha regarding which types of gezeiros can be repealed and by whom. Unfortunately for you, the gezeira of Stam yayin cannot be repealed under any circumstances. (Technically this is due to the halacha that a gezeira that was nispashet brov/kol yisrael, cannot be repealed even by a Beis din that could be godol brlechochma uvminyan.) So you really need to spend more time studying with you chavrusa. -focus on the second perek of avoda Zara in shas bavli for now, then post back here without sounding ridiculous.

Re: How do U define yourself, what does it mean & how would you like to see your kid
Faking, mainly because I'm embarrassed to change. College, I don't consider financial success as the primary element of "making it". If anything I'd consider trade school. Much less debt and years required. Although I never thought about the idea that I can meet a Jewish girl in college. For that it's actually a pretty good idea. You really need to get out more... Cant you get an uber on Friday nights to the city? or is that a deorysa? LOL Seriously speaking, you really just need to get on top of your issues. No disrespect at all, but you are not at all learned enough to be a good apikores. You are trying for the "intellectual apikores" approach, but it really doesn't fit for someone with a basic yeshiva high-school education. - You need to at least know shas bavli well if you are going to decide you "disagree". Or at the very minimum have a serious kefiradik history degree. Together with some philosophy...
Because you are not an intellectual apikores, it doesn't suit you, you dont have arguments for any of these.. February 14, 2018, 01:02:58 PM |

Pathetic. OP apparently has the same machla, he reads some random books or blogs, (aka seforim chitzonim), then he has big klotz kashes, where things " don't make any sense", and sometimes should be totally "abolished".

Re: Vaccine Discussion Master Thread
How about an Anti-Assisted Birth movement. Hashem wants us to give birth like the nashim tzidkanios did in mitzrayim. It’s mefurash a Rashi. Women should give birth on their own on the privacy of their homes, not in a hospital assisted by an OB; they are all just in it for the money- the whole system, from the ultrasound companies, to the prenatal vitamin producers, to the formula companies, to the OB’s and hospitals are all in cahoots to make millions by providing unnecessary healthcare. Studies show that hospitals are full of dangerous germs and there are hundreds of lawsuits that proved that doctors have actually harmed babies during delivery, in some cases resulting in severe brain damage. Vinishmartem me’od lenafshoseichem means it is positively a mitzvah to stop harming our precious children by using the money-hungry healthcare machine. Besides, kol kevudah bas melech penimah.Not sure if you are serious or not, but this movement would be much closer to "gram retzicha" than the vaccines. I've spent a couple of weeks in a NICU.. The quantities of frum babies that if born at home, like in the third world countries, that would be dead is astounding. That's a lot of dead bodies. How perversive and careless. Plenty of mom's go into distress also. These are not rare occasions. March 12, 2018, 07:51:56 AM |
