Brown Rose What did he answer you with? I can't believe a rabbi didn't come back with something. Or what did he really mean? Did you think about that? ...
... <<Brown Rose What did he answer you with? >> He didn´t answer yet. Either he has the answer already, which, in that case, he doesn´t need to reforce...
... <<i only question, i don´t issue judgements.>> False, of course. i do make judgements. But like Jacob, i do not wage war against others in order to...
Brown Rose, Was this rabbi someone you were dealing with on line, or up front? I'm just curious and would be interested, if you don't mind, in what he...

... A classic example of using the making of war to end a form of evil is WWII - against the Nazis. There are many people who believe that had we not fought...
Yup. That's the long and the short of it, Chava. Pardon me if I don't continue. I have to get my jump-bag ready for an assignment next week. Josiah ... ...

Chava, Don't forget the Mexican War which was nothing less than a war of aggression and acquistion. Perhaps war and disaster really are scalpels. Once...
... It's also in our hands, because we have to respond to the situation as it happens. Hashem (IMO) can only react through us. Though I'm wary of a medical...
May you have a Merry Christ-mass and a Happy New Year with lots of Love (and extras :-)) Brown [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
As promised, i´m posting the reply of the martial-rabbi, and my response to him. <<So please, don't (just) be religious. Don't (just) be secular. Be REAL. ...

People, me too, like the idea of "power" and "the strength of judgement", forgeting that, on its own, gevura becomes the power to hurt. If, on the right hand,...
This is a very interesting conversation, but I think we need someone to take up the other side of it here (I have valid grounds for recusal). Any takers? ... ...
Please do! If i am taking a side here, i must acknowledge that there will be another side! :-) Brown ... From: Casey Sheldon <ayrkain@...> Subject: Re:...

Sorry Casey! If you kick the ball to me I will run with it. I think I might have a rough idea of what you are talking about though. Could you elaborate a...
