May cool down at any second. The scammers were scared off.

Discussion as to weather the proliferation of Amazon and Walmart deals is killing the forums, and chasing older members away.

When a popcorn thread first heats up, it should be placed under the "Fresh" heading. When it slows down but still sees action from time to time, it should be moved to "Still Popping." When it becomes an outright relic, it should be moved to "Classics." Obviously, if things get "lebedig" again, it can be upgraded again.

"Sizzling Popcorn" - these types of popcorn threads will probably be deleted with in minutes, so you better hurry and read them fast!

Did you follow the thread? Did you understand how cholov akum was germane to the discussion?

Ya that's like saying that all his Lubavitcher views are discredited because he does (XYZ-nsert Lubavitcher minhag here) that others disagree with. I didn't even bother responding there because eveybody knows Rav Moshe's tshuva and people seem to know his rants like about this (and beards-next he'll tell everyone without a beard that they're opinions are all because they shave blah blah). So ignoring is the best idea.

You clearly didn't read his explanation. Or, as usual, you are having reading comprehension issues. Sun goes up, sun goes down...

Um yes, I actually did. And if you think that his explanation on why someone who follows the opinion of a great person like Rav Moshe on a psak accepted by most of the frum Jews of the country is a satisfactory reason to discredit his opinions in general then you need to get you're head checked ASAP.
But I don't argue about it here because over there people put him in his place.
It would be funny if it wouldn't be so sad.

Again, with this response you show you DID NOT READ HIS EXPLANATION in that thread. It has nothing to do with credibility, and everything to do with trusting government regulatory procedures.

Please, just stop.

Can someone clarify it so a 5th grader would understand?

Would it be when it is to ones benefit they trust government regulations but when it is not to their benefit they don't trust government regulations?
I just found a new supply of forks!

Except in this case they're relying on govt regulations that don't even exist.

But yes, for everything aside from religious purposes they have no faith in govt ;)
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

You seem to be having issues reading my posts. "It has nothing to do with credibility"? He claims there that my opinions on one matter are not credible because of my stance on chalav stam. Maybe you're referring to the government's credibility in enforcing the law, but that's not what I'm using the term for. So clearly you're the one facing reading comprehension issues.

Besides, if you'd know the first thing about these halachos you'd know there's another din pertinent to this discussion-אין טמא בעדרו-milk producing farms don't raise pigs or camels for their milk, only cows. There are those that say that this factor was the most important one in Rav Moshe's opinion and he had other calculations for writing the reason he did. Regardless, your (and others) ignorance of this idea doesn't speak well for you.

If you'd like to make a chalav stam debate thread that's fine. But don't go around saying that if someone follows Rav Moshe on such a matter (that for generations had universal acceptance in America) gets timtum halev and therefore can't speak about any other matter. Besides maligning the many great people who ate chalav stam themselves, you're also making yourself look like a fool. So all your technical points in regards to the Halacha won't change the fact that people who eat it have who to rely on.
