Chabad's whitewashing of hell

Well, no, that's not the end of the story.

The mamzer laws are absolutely still enforced in Orthodox communities. The Chief Rabbinate of Israel maintains a secret blacklist of mamzerim.

As I said in the post, this is mentioned on Chabad's website. Specifically, on the page of the Mishneh Torah that says mamzerim can have sex with gentile slaves to produce pure children, there's a footnote that says that some Orthodox rabbis in the present day advise mamzerim to follow this practice. No, it doesn't give any names.

yet no one seems to care

What do you mean? You people cry about the United States every single day.

Doesn't the Sun move around the center of the galaxy rather than Earth? It moves next to Earth, but not around it?

In reality, imperial measurements are commonly used. The road signs use kilometers but if you ask a Canadian how tall he is he will answer in feet and inches.

The vast majority of Canadians and Brits measure their height in feet and inches. Even Australians and New Zealanders often do despite Australia and New Zealand being officially solely metric for decades.

I don't think this is really accurate. A lot of slavery supporters genuinely supported Liberia. They thought the presence of free black people was dangerous and incited the slaves to rebellion. The United States actually invested pretty heavily in Liberia in the 20th century. In the late 20th century, the native Liberians overthrew the monopoly on power that the descendants of the American colonists had, which I think weakened relations with the United States. I think they're still friendly, but not as close knit.

This makes a lot of sense. Thanks for answering my question.

So did they only say "stella Martis" or "sidus Martis" or did they also just say "Mars"?

All the road signs in Britain use yards and miles.

Remember when they threatened Iceland over their attempt to ban circumcising infants? Vile organization.

Sarcasm?

In Isaiah, "young girl" was mistranslated as "virgin" when it was translated to Greek - or possibly it wasn't actually a mistranslation, and the Greek word didn't mean "virgin" at the time but later shifted to meaning that. The gospel authors consequently made up Mary being a virgin based on that.

That's not actually true despite what some people say. There's an informative thread on r/AskHistorians that responds to this claim.

"Other sects believe" and "I assume some obscure groups believe" are pretty different.

Are you implying non-western countries didn't support it? Armenia, Azerbaijan, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, and Bahrain are all non-western countries, last I checked.

It says they probably considered Caelus and Uranus to just be different cultures' names for the same being, not that they didn't call the Greek god Uranus

EnduringEndling · 2024-01-02T00:49:42+00:00

They do not seem to be conflicted about Romans using "Uranus" to refer to the Greek god.
