  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.
Who doesn't like shabbos the way you're describing?

I don't like a different part of shabbos that you aren't describing. I'm sure you can guess based on your knowledge of my beliefs.
Please elaborate.

his point was that as a jew Shabbos means something to him regardless what the pope says or doesn't say. Why is that offensive?
May you slide down the banister of happiness & get many splinters of success up your career.

If I post a video on the NBA thread of Sachin Tendulkar saying LBJ is the goat, after googling his name, you'll say, "I don't give a rats tail what he has to say about basketball." Is that disrespectful to Sachin? Of course not! It's just that it's literally got nothing to do with him.

You do have a point. Someone once quoted RabbiI Yisroel Meir Hacohen Kagan and response was I don't give a rats tail what some senile old fart has to say.

His point as you call it and what he said do not jive.

No one called the Pope a senile old fart.
I'm not who you think I am.

Correct. I just added some color to my post but the gist was the same.

You are misreading. He didn't say a word about the pope himself, only as he relates to a Jew's Torah observance, which he doesn't. Your post, otoh, absolutely does speak about the person himself and is more than a tad bit disrespectful.

Your analogy is flawed. A more accurate one would be if a group of Catholics would get together on a Sunday to have a catechism class, and someone would bring a video of some Mulsim supreme leader to support or strengthen a point of view, or make a certain argument.

While the language used by CBC isn't one I think I would ever use, I can relate (and agree) with his criticism, which I see as directed at the OP OF THIS THREAD, not at the Pope.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Both posts are disrespectful but only one of us was not serious.

Your logic is flawed as what other religious leaders say does matter.

You've been answered numerous times, you still can't bring yourself to think maybe you misread. Have a pleasant rest of the day.

If he would like to rephrase what he said he is more than welcome. Also I believe he is old enough to speak for himself instead of everyone trying to spin what he said. You also have a pleasant rest of your day.  :)

BTW I'm pretty sure he meant it for effect only
