No but in this case it is obvious.  :)

To me it was obvious that the mom chose it as word that she wanted as a name.

And what of separation of church and state? From viewpoint of the law, isn't messiah a word and nothing more?

It's not the first time a judge has ruled in regards to a child's name.

Can't wait for a judge to deny the use of the name "LeBron," saying that there is only one LeBron.   ;)

Honestly, sometimes I feel the lack of physical contact in super religious communities specifically in Israel tends to do more harm than good.

No between men and men and women and women. Or even fathers and daughters and sons and mothers etc.

Ok, give me a break, do you really think this is true?

Maybe I'm not familiar with Gur, but I find it hard to believe.
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

Sorry for not being clear, I find Chassidish Israelis to be more huggy/feely/kissing than their American peers.

Some are. Some aren't. And I guess it's more in younger children/teens that I see it. And between kids and their parents, when the kids are older. Pre-teen and up.

Not sure about this

http://www.yourjewishnews.com/2013/08/n28711.html?m=1
Maybe it was because he rides a bike?
"A few weeks ago, several rabbis in the Israeli city of Bnei Brak issued a ruling that it is prohibited to carry a groom on one’s shoulders while dancing at weddings. The rabbis said that they banned the practice after a groom, who was carried on a friend’s shoulders, was unable to consummate his marriage after the wedding."

AFAIK The ban has as much truth to it as the story with the groom and as much as the whole article put together.
