So you're saying it's like the mashul of pauper asking his wife to make him what the king eats...

Perhaps, though from what I hear it's got nothing on a Milt's burger either way ;)

Point well taken. Last night we got lucky and there was only one act (the final one) which featured a woman singing. I stepped out for that as I would have for any other act that required so.
That being said, if you go to any sporting event there is kol isha/ dancers/ cheerleaders... Doesn't mean you shouldn't go - just step out or turn away when necessary.
And for the record - Shulchan aruch observing Jews are dan l'kaf zechus.

If you eat before havdalah, you are also a rasha.

Just had a quick look at your profile and some of your posts and replies to see what youre about . To put it nicely, your opinion doesn't count for much.

I use K9.  :)

Believe it or not - I asked my Rav, and he allowed me in my circumstances with k9. (He even specified which categories I have to block).

my point is that if AGT is unacceptable for you then being online for anything other than business reasons should also be unacceptable (as per all the rabbonim)

What in the world does one have to do with the other? Every time someone has a criticism of something based on frumkeit which they post online someone has to give this same stupid answer which doesn't answer anything

It's not an answer.  It's a call to stop judging others when no one is perfect.

He did not judge anyone. He said that a specific action is wrong in his opinion. To that he was answered the stupid excuse for any online criticism "if you are so frum don't be online" which had zero relevance to his non-judgemental statement.

I specifically wrote that I don't believe he's a Rasha, Ki kal Ha'am Beshgaga - that's the definition of pointing out a wrongdoing without judging.

These posts about other people's religious choices, in my opinion are a big chilul Hashem...can you imagine what this looks like to the non Jews amongst us? Not trying to give mussar here, healthy religious debate is fine but keep in mind this is an open forum, we should act accordingly

Chilul hashem isn't judged by the opinion of the observer.

ok well I'd rather not have to cringe when reading some things people say about others choices...maybe I'm overly sensitive- I just don't see the good

Yes, just checked. I got the story wrong (it's been 4 years), but according to R Channenel and the Rif the genera does say that essentially there's an inyan to know fun it is (Rashi has a dif pshat).

Do you disagree?

I don't see any Rabeinu Chananel on the daf (are you referring to a separate sefer?), and the Rif on this Gemara skips that piece...
