HelpMe, feel free to come join me for a weekend and let me know if you think the women in my hasidic sect are treated like 2nd class citizens...

Dan, I have seen many of your posts regarding women. They show nothing but the utmost respect for women. I have no reason to believe your sect would be any different.

I'm not sure what L"H your talking about, when someone goes on Dr. Phil admitting sleeping with a married women,
wouldn't you classify it as a case where the chofetz Chaim sais its a mitzvah to speak L"H on reshoim?

here her boyfriend says she just showing them there are other options, not making them eat non-kosher or 'showing them there's an outside world'. What a loser... Surprising she can't get a better boyfriend.

TO bad the show wasnt based on him.. It would have been really funny if they showed these on Dr. Pil

I'm no fan of Shmuley's but (for the most part) he is an intellectual individual with well developed ideas. I happen to agree with him here 100%. (I did not watch the whole thing, just the clips Dan posted.) while it must be dealt with delicately, if the mom agrees that the children should be raised in the religion they grew up knowing it is critical for their emotional stability and development to keep a relationship with their mother who loves them. Regarding whether she should have any custody over her children did he make the point that Judaism doesn't care about her religious standing.

well developed ideas must be based on judaism

I agree that Shmuley's is too PR oriented and def. Isn't fit for the chief rabbi gig, but that doesn't mean he's always wrong. Take the onus on yourself where does Judaism say it's critical to take a child away from it's mother?

when doing so will cause the child to not be shomer torah umitzvos?

when you take a look at this pic, think of how his chassideshe father feels. then think how his Father feels

That explains why I never come up with any well developed ideas. I was raised Roman Catholic.

you missed the point. if hes claiming well developed ideas from a jewish perspective, it must be based on judaism. i thought that was obvious. after all hes the token "rabbi" on the program

but thanks for taking things out of context

Alot of it I feel has to do with our study habits.
How we learn and delve deep into each subject that we take on.

Are you aware that referring to someone as a “token” is viewed by many as derogatory and racist? What to make sure I have the context right.
