Thank G-d! We have people like this to show us how G-d's Torah is correct. What would we do without him? We might have ספיקות...


























And it make such perfect sense too, right? I mean droves of two and three year olds left Yiddishkeit due to the Haskoloh and Zionism, right? They had a million and a half members of children in those groups, right? I think what's missing in this man's life was a bissel Chassidus. That way he would see that not everything has to make perfect sense to him. And that's what's most important in life is not that HE understand everything according to his שכל. And then he wouldn't say such things and publish them! I guess that's what growing up in America does to you. All that Hershey's chocolate and Entenmann's cakes gets to your head and heart. מטמטם את המוח ואת הלב. Your mind thinks such thoughts and your heart is too farshtopped to stop your heart from thinking such thoughts.

It is sad that there are people out there that "know" חשבונות שמיים, as if they are כביכול בכודו. We can only thank השי"ת, that אשרינו שחסידים אנחנו and we leave these עניינים only to him יתב"ש. BTW מן הסתם he was eating a yodel...

Berish said...

This is where you lose credibility. If you want to criticize this sefer, fine. But when Gedolei Yisroel are mattir something, and make no mistake. Almost every single one, from the Chazon Ish to Rav Henkin, Reb Moshe Feinstein and the Ridvaz and more were mattir something, you have the gall to attack someone for not searching for a chumra, as though these are his problems?! The Hungarian Rabbonim with sticks are not even on the radar in the place of these people.
The mechaber should do teshuva, but Enteman's donuts are the smallest of his issues.

P.S. I have never tasted cholov stam, but this krumkeit of fighting for chumros is worse than deinking cholov stam

look it up in Perfidy!

A true classic! History that reads like a mystery novel when villains parade themselves as heroes and the real heroes are targets of evil.

Review: Perfidy is an indictment, yes. But it is meant to be far more than that. Hecht has tackled an ambitious project- he wishes the reader to see what happens when one excuses all in the name of the ideal, refusing to challenge authority to stand up for what is right. --Curiousjew Blog

Yerucham said...

When I thought it was Reb avigdor Miller, I thought the agenda was to annoy people. He wrote his own books and he is responsible for misinterpretations. However this book was not written by rav pinkus and he doesn't have a history of trying to get under people's skin. If you learnt some mussar instead of ploidering about something called chassedess, you wouldn't have had a hard time understanding.
His point is that the aveira was coming from the youth and the punishment started with the youth. Not that the murdered children were guilty of something. He didn't say someone was personally responsible.

It is an interesting point that when gedolei yisroel were trying to do anything physically possible to save people from the holocaust, some leaders were adamant that there is a spiritual issue and all we can do is teshuva, essentially blaming the victims. Yet it is his philosophy that would have saved rabbi pinkus from this mistake. Did he also eat Hershey bars?

The point is that you missed his point, just like the MSM always miss the point when a Rav mentions the Holocaust, (like a few yrs ago when ROY said the kedoshim were gilgulim. They all took offense when he was in fact being melameid Zechus that they didn't personally deserve it.)

B'nosei didan, this man wasn't actually blaming the youth in the sense of schar v'onesh. He was saying there was a kitrug on the young because the dor was failing to transmit the mesora to the next dor. V'DaL.

the point is pointless,
can he explain why the Germans who brought haskalah and reform to Jewry were saved more then the holy jews of Poland/Galicia/Hungary?
the German Jews were given a opportunity to run?
If the zionist were the cause
then why were the Zionist saved to establish a country on the ashes of the shoah?
he has a answer???? did it not backfire?
if he is Yodaeh Dass Elyon
let them answer
the holy Belzer ruv said he does not know why , so lets all keep quiet

"too farshtopped to stop your heart from thinking such thoughts."!?

MONEY TALK!!!

Estimates range as high as 1.5 million murdered children  during the Holocaust. 

Josef Mengele and the Nazi doctors tortured men, women and "especially children" and did medical experiments of unspeakable horror during the Holocaust. Victims were put into pressure chambers, tested with drugs, castrated, frozen to death. "Children were exposed to experimental surgeries performed without anesthesia", transfusions of blood from one to another, isolation endurance, reaction to various stimuli. The Nazi doctors made injections with lethal germs, sex change operations, removal of organs and limbs.

ps: Germany is the 3rd largest pharmaceutical market in the world! and it is "largest in Europe".

I presume you are asking rhetorically but I'll answer anyway. Rave Michoel Dov Ber Weissmandel said that the extreme Yekke emphasis on honesty is what gave them the zchus to be saved. I don't want to elaborate or give his full answer because I know it will be made fun of.

So he writes. He was an "oberlander yekke" who's "outgrown egos" stinks of high heaven! which the holocaust humbled him just a bit, he was for the aguda before he was against it too, he wanted to create a "chassidisher- lakewood" version oberlander yeshiva to, students may wear straw hats, neckties and beardless, as long they "appear honest", Rav Yankel Orenstein the rosh yeshivah, demanded openly in a speech that all bucherim must hide their payos!, well that didn't workout! so, RMDBW said so what?

also sayin said...

also, the royal property of "yeshiva farm settlement" in Mt. Kisco was donated by a philanthropist who stipulated, that the yeshiva will also be a school for learning trades such as farming and printing etc. (I knew a Bucher who washed 'negel vasser' the cows in the morning there, not kidding), and they printed on their own presses, the best "tikun liel shvuoth" (I still use it) and the sefer "min hamatzer" i think.

RMDBW was verbally and visible awed by the greatness in all aspects of the SR couldn't get enough of him, but he 'personally' only discovered him after WWII, the SR was very found and support of him, but was cautioned by his eulogy not to say any "drush" despite other eulogiests after him, what a loss.. and what a Cutzpah!

JJJ flow: "the other yekkes 
like Einstein.."

! קוב"ה לא עביד ניסא למגנא

Albert Einstein, on April 17, 1938, in a speech at the Commodore Hotel in New York City, said:

"I should much rather see reasonable agreement with the Arabs on the basis of living together in peace than the creation of a Jewish state. Apart from practical consideration, my awareness of the essential nature of Judaism resists the idea of a Jewish state with borders, an army, and a measure of temporal power no matter how modest. I am afraid of the inner damage Judaism will sustain -- especially from the development of a narrow nationalism within our own ranks, against which we have already had to fight strongly, even without a Jewish state."

In January, 1946, in a reply to the question of whether refugee settlement in Palestine demanded a Jewish state, Einstein told the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry,

"The State idea is not according to my heart. I cannot understand why it is needed. It is connected with narrow-minded and economic obstacles. I believe it is bad. I have always been against it." 

After the death of the first president of Israel in 1952, the Israeli government offered the post of second president to Einstein. He declined the offer.

"Chochom - That's the point"

What's your point!

Einstein came to America in 1933, so did Klemperer, Preminger came in 1935. years before WWII which started in mid 1937, they came for employment reasons. America had than around 5+ million jews, many of the fine Osthjuden!

50, million people died in WWII, very few % of them where "Osthjuden" even from the six million jews killed, much less Osthjuden% were killed than the assimilated kind. Deal with the facts yekke.
