I was just out there last fall and I could definitely see that being a major source of tension. The Orthodox population there is well-off and are the ones working and building up the city. The women work too and you can time it to the second when they all leave the office to pick up their kids from school/daycare.
It's related to their specific beliefs, iirc they believe jews shouldn't move back to the holy land before the messiah. Being anti-zionist is a positive imo.
This always makes me laugh about kikes. They think they can literally cheat god. My favourite examples are the eruv in New York and the kosher list switch.
And it's always the same, see a picture I'm about to post.
It's not retardation when it's true. Like this.
orthodox jews (not just hasidim) are not really unified on the israel question
Lev Tahor are a thread of their own; there were charges of sexual abuse and other things in Canada so the head guy moved everyone to a small remote town in Guatemala and promptly pissed off the locals so some jews from the capital stepped in to help them move and I don't know what happened after that. I seem to recall they couldn't go to Israel because the guy who runs this group is also wanted there by the authorities but I could be wrong.
So kind of like FLDS moving to rural small towns in order to keep marrying little girls to men old enough to be their grandfathers?
Yeah, I considered adding a note to the OP to keep things focused, but I think it's better to just let the jannies decide. I can't say that sperging about Metzizah B'peh is necessarily off-topic, but the Hassidic world has so much more to laugh at then the same three endlessly recycled /pol/ack talking points.
Depends on the group. In general, the women are more educated than the men because they're not allowed to learn Talmud and have to settle for math and English instead. Chabad is pretty liberal and basically equivalent to Modern Orthodox (which is still very conservative by [current year] standards). Satmar makes women shave their heads. Skver doesn't let them drive. Ger abuses both sexes equally.
He drowned trying to go to the mikvah in a Mexican river in 2017.
Last I heard they were trying to claim political asylum in Iran but I think that never panned out.
They aren't considered orthodox or Hasidim, just weirdos, by other jews. And everyone else too.
Our resident rabbi @Catch The Rainbow can answer that for you.
I just saw that in their Wikipedia article, Apparent his son is more batshit than Dad was.
Ok, so it varies depending on the exact group kind of like it does with Christian fundies (though they're all pretty terrible to women overall). Women being taught math and science is interesting since teaching anyone math and science is a big no-no with Christian fundies. Skver sounds like it's comparable to FLDS and Saudi Arabia until the let women drive recently (FLDS lets women drive, but they deliberately withhold in-date plates to prevent them from leaving FLDS compounds).
Did you know the big bang theory was originated by a Catholic priest? Did you know that the universities of Europe were originally set up and funded by the church?
Considering they believe they are the master race (chosen people) I doubt it.
Yes. Evangelical fundies and their ilk aren't exactly fans of catholics.
Eyeguy is actually better educated in Judaism than I am, I'm just more vocal about it.
Hasidic Judaism is focused more on mysticism and catering to the spiritual side of Judaism versus normal Orthodox Judaism which places a stronger emphasis on learning. They also focus more on the role of joy in serving god. The idea started with the Baal Shem Tov who was a mystic in eastern Europe and his teachings spread through his students who went back to their own hometowns and became rabbis of their own. Each Hasidic sect is named after the town it originated in for example breslovors in breslov, bobovers in bobov, and Chabad lubavich in lubavich.
So the women work while the men study. They have to learn about math and science in order to earn a living.
Mostly no and many don't believe in the bing bang either. I disagree with them on this topic because there's a central idea in Judaism about not limiting what God can do or ascribing him attributes. I personally believe it's a far greater miracle to create a system of life where complex beings grow from single celled pond scum than if every animal just was made fully formed.
If there's anyone who is off topic in a thread about kikes it's the person who keeps bringing up Christians.
No one uses that switch and the rabbis who endorsed it withdrew their endorsement. That being said, Jews use timers on shabbat but it's only ok if they are set before shabbat.
What about this?
ok that literally made me lol
