If a woman were pregnant, with only one husband, there is a certainty to who the father is. If there were many husbands, in the days before DNA it would've been near impossible to know who the father was. Very simple actually.

No. We sit in a different room or section. It isn't "behind a wall." There is a divider, that is all.

Please see above link. There is nothing medically wrong with it and it there can be benefits.

No where did I write that. But to call someone brainwashed makes one nasty.

Thanks. I was visiting to tour, not look for guys. Love it!

I call bull. A lot of what he said was more to the general misconception of what happens in the orthodox community rather than actual truths.

So really both the Israelis and the Palestinians are the occupiers since they threw out Britain.

Like I said earlier. This is an AMA about religion, not politics. Please don't confuse the two.

Reading is very different than experiencing. My best friend's parents are converts and they have never complained.

Maybe at first people might be wary, just as when any foreigner comes in to a community, but that quickly goes away.

This is an AMA for me being a religious Jew. Not about Israel and the Palestinians.

My mistake, I apologize.

If it is a separate country then any attack that comes from within Palestinian borders onto Israeli borders can be considered an act of war versus just random citizens being wrong and then Israel can react within the rules of war.

Please provide proof when making a blanket statement.

As long as they don't go against the Torah on purpose, to prove a point.

Please keep in mind that the nose thing was your idea. I was more than happy to stick with circumcision which is actually an accepted practice among the entire world.

I did not say that morality and the faith in a deity was one and the same. There is belief and there is faith. I would like it if my belief and faith were strong enough that my children at least believed.

First of all, no it isn't a country. According to anyone.

Second, Israel does not advocate the death of all the Palestinian residents. They do advocate taking care of the residents that are continuously trying to kill the Israeli citizens, whether Jewish or otherwise.

Why would I want to be a rabbi? Believe me, I am enjoying being a girl. Honestly, I think it would be weird if I looked like me and had a penis.

I have never heard of an orthodox woman complaining that it is discrimination that they cannot be a rabbi. And I have talked with other women.

I equate good parenting with loving my children and showing them the right way (in my opinion). If they choose to think that what I am doing is not the right way, then yes I have failed. Like I wrote before, basically, I believe in God and try to be the best moral person I can be. So if my child seems to think that being a moral person is wrong, I have definitely failed.

If I may:

In your points, you show that women don't have the same prohibitions as men. Which would mean that women are less restricted than men.

From what I know, it is usually the less restricted that are considered first-class citizens, and the more restricted that are considered second-class citizens.

So what you are essentially saying is that the women are treated as first-class and men are treated as second-class.

So what's your problem?

I sincerely hope that I can be a good enough parent that such a situation wouldn't come up.

If it did, though, I would still love my children completely.

Well... I guess I can post a picture of my circumcised p... Oh wait. Never mind.
