what will Hamodia do if Hillary becomes President?

[Aaaron]

Wrong wrong and wrong!

Welcome to the conversation.  Now go read through the past few pages, learn the sugya, than report back.  Thanks!

Right, and anything that makes people say "look at those Jews" Hashem considers a chillul.

absoulutely incorrect. Halacha dictates that only doing an aveira can be a Chillul Hashem. So if you eat something without making a bracha more likely you are oiver on CH then by not posting a pic of the democratic nominee.

[David Smith]

I don't recall if the Gemara specifies whether the butcher was Jewish or not, so I can't say until I go back over the sugya, but I still maintain that this can be a CH.

I'll do you a favor; look at that gemara. You'll get much better material. There are much better examples there for your cause than not paying the butcher right away.

Like those Jews that take off every other week for holidays? Or those Jews that can't shake my wife's hand? Or those Jews that refuse to eat my food?

Wrong wrong and wrong!

There's many things that we Jews do that causes goyim to the say "look at those Jews"
One day you might (don't take me literally) cut out portions of the shilchen urich to prevent the "look at those Jews" issue..

That's how reform started

That is 100% incorrect according to every shita I've ever seen.  You have a source to back that up?

Will do.  It's been a while since I hashed this out with AJ before he was banned.

Did you read my prior response?  We're not discussing a clear lav hear (presumbaly).

Was photoshopping HRC out of the war room picture a chillul hashem?

[sharkky]

Even according to the shittah that gezel akum is muttar its still considered a chillul hashem. It doesnt matter if it wouldv been muttar w/o chilul hashem


Or this is said by taus akum? Either way, the point is the same

[koplonko]

Yes. They should have not printed it, or cut out/replace it with a different one
It's only a chilul hashem because there were other solutions. You don't like a picture you don't need to print it. But don't go around photoshopping. That doesn't mean they wrong about the idea of not having woman pictures

I wouldn't have done it. Taking her out of a picture is worse than publishing no picture. It looked like they were pretending she didn't exist and wasn't involved.

That's not answering the question...

(Thanks for the daf, the first copy was fine.)

So now that I'm refreshed, can we all agree that something does not need to be assur for it to be a chillul HaShem?

[chaimmayer]

Iirc there was a bezel issue also because the White House released the pic for any one to use but they made a תנאי that it couldn't be doctored.

Correct

[churnbabychurn]

She doesn't cover her hair. How can they publish a picture of a woman without her hair covered?

Sear akum not ervah iirc

Do you understand that it looks that way in both cases?

That writing an article about her speech without putting in a picture of her speaking is denying her involvement in the speech?

I am talking about how non-Jews would view PS her out or not ever posting a picture of her if she becomes POTUS. The view will be religious quacks. You can decide if this would be a CH as I am lost based on the 100% opposite comments in this thread.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Not putting in pictures of her would be the ultimate rejection that the progress of electing a female president would represent.

I guess you truly don't understand.
