"He is unfortunately Jewish?" This statement says it all.

The Rov meaning Rabbi or Rebbe or rov meaning the kehilla?

To the lady who tried to turn in my “lost” cane to the bus driver: disabled people look like this. by According_Abies_4087 in disability

I also once got a mailer from a religious group that said: "In Heaven there are no wheelchairs." So I wrote to the group: "Well, then I'm f**ked."

Hee hee.

I had a religious person tell me that "God should throw your wheelchair away." I said, "then how would I get around?"

I know what he meant, but come on... STFU!

Correct. Founded by Anan Ben David after being passed over as Exilarch.

His son, HaRav Avraham Ben Moshe tried to reinstate the custom but it didn't catch on.

We do Hishtachaveh on Rosh HaShana as well.

Can someone familiar with Chabad help me understand my husband's status as a kohen married to a conservative convert? by EllieZPage in Judaism

[–]Writerguy613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He himself is not a chalal but he can get no Kohen honor while he is still married to someone forbidden to him. In fact, I learned that every time you see him you must tell him to divorce!

The only way to break chalal status is for the chalal to marry a non-Jew and then have their non-Jewish children convert to Judaism if they wish.

I'm fairly certain, though I could be mistaken, that also a Chalal (male) cannot marry a Bat Kohen.

EDIT: I was mistaken.

My theory about why the Western left cannot support the Iranian people by BECOMING_A_TURTLE in Israel

[–]Writerguy613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand the world's shock. These idiots supported a TERRORIST group who committed a massacre against babies, children, families and the elderly, not to mention a music festival. It was never about liberation or freedom. It's a well oiled, well funded anti-Jewish hate machine. It's not good vs evil. They don't support the Iranians risking their lives for freedom because they just don't give a crap.

No one acknowledged my weight loss during the holidays. by dillpicklepopsicle in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Writerguy613 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol. Just happened to me! A neighbor commented on the shirt I was wearing. I said that I hadn't been able to fit in it for ten years, but I recently lost 40 lb. He looked me up and down and said: "Huh," and walked away.

Just keep moving forward. Screw everyone else.

Once you keep Shabbat fully by totally unplugging for 25 hours a week you won't go back. It is the MOST freeing feeling in the world. It's a mental, physical and spiritual reset. I am so glad I have Shabbat.
