What revolting nonsense.
Nothing of...@ Ish Emes<br /><br />What revolting nonsense. <br /><br />Nothing of the sort is "well known" at all. In fact, the distinguished poseq & rosh kollel R' Rakeffet Rothkoff, in a posting <br />[ http://www.yutorah.org/lectures/lecture.cfm/740330/Rabbi_Aaron_Rakeffet-Rothkoff/2009-12-21_Press_Conference ]<br />copied on this blog <br />[ http://daattorah.blogspot.com/2010/01/r-aaronrakeffet-rothkoff-contemporary.html ]<br />reported just the opposite.<br /><br />And why would it be DT's task to publicize your lashon hara? Potential suitors can't investigate for their own children the status of the shidduch? They need the help of unsubstantiated rumor spread out into the public domain, an entire generation before the shidduch would be nogeia, to "save" them? Well, how convenient that such "help" comes valiantly in the form of your wagging, accusatory finger. And you call that bravery! What's more, you take another to task for not "living up" to such a madrega!! Unbelievable.<br /><br />You're a hypocrite masked as a baal halakha, and a chillul H' on top of it. Words do not suffice for the likes of you. <br /><br />@DT: I presume you found good cause to post "Ish Emes"'s trash of a Comment, but what that good cause is escapes me....Baal Lashon Emesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-89818098956750106062010-03-22T21:34:56.396+02:002010-03-22T21:34:56.396+02:00No.No.Certnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-55356903351941825952010-03-22T17:15:02.396+02:002010-03-22T17:15:02.396+02:00How does this apply to identifying the bones of a...How does this apply to identifying the bones of ancient graves, can we rely on expert archaeologists / scientists?Ben MIkrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07122937371918515052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-66212550792195933982010-03-20T00:45:17.477+02:002010-03-20T00:45:17.477+02:00Menachem Genack wants to make sure with the Reform...Menachem Genack wants to make sure with the Reform rabbis that the Left wing agenda gets pushed through to legalize all the illegal immigrants working for OU clients.<br /><br />http://jewschool.com/2010/03/15/21750/ready-for-immigration-reform-heres-what-you-can-do/<br /><br />Sunday March 21, 6pm<br /><br />Learn about the Jewish imperative to call for immigration reform on a conference call with Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.), Rabbi David Saperstein (Reform), Rabbi Morris Alan (Conservative) and Rabbi Menachem Genack (Orthodox) and other leaders.<br /><br />Register Here: http://www.jcua.org/immigrationcall.OU Crony Watchnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-66067229637418522292010-03-19T14:38:54.229+02:002010-03-19T14:38:54.229+02:00it is necessary to have witnesses and surely for c...<i>it is necessary to have witnesses and surely for corporal punishment</i><br /><br />So we see Rav Moshe paskens corporal punishment is a tool Yidden use.<br /><br /><i>we find in Shulchan Aruch (C.M. 35:14) that in circumstances where men don’t typically go – there is an ancient decree to believe women.</i><br /><br />And in other circumstances we don't believe them.Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13407460404034430042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-1474610598543261412010-03-19T05:00:11.814+02:002010-03-19T05:00:11.814+02:00To be clear: What constitutes a 'formal' b...To be clear: What constitutes a 'formal' beis din?
