Note To All Posters: Only one post per person is permitted. Please make it a single, short question.

Chaim would love to answer all of your great questions but (unfortunately due to the number of questions and time constraints), if there is more than one short question, it will have to be moved to The Future Ask JTF Section. We apologize for this inconvenience and only wish that every person has a chance to be heard on the show.

Or course, comments not directed to Chaim will be moved into a separate thread under The General Discussion.

Chaim has stated that only one short question or comment per poster will be answered. Please remember that even with these rules, the program is over 2 hours long every week! If you want to post a longer question, unfortunately, Chaim may or may not be able to answer it in it's entirety. In this case, you may copy and paste parts of your question for the following week.

Thank you for your kindness and respect regarding these rules.

Chag Purim Katan Sameach,

What do you think of people claiming that there was no year 0 before 1 C.E.? I think it's foolish because the whole idea of starting the C.E. count from a particular time isn't meaningful because it was just a date picked. Any year could have been picked but it is useful though in dating B.C.E. dates from Pre-Historic times before Biblical Man was created. It is also useful when there is a difference in Jewish History between Seder Olam dates and actual Historical dating.

Also, was there ever a point in your life when you celebrated The Secular New Year? If so, how did you celebrate?

Yacov Menashe Ben Rachamim,
Chief Administrator.

TorahZionist:
I'm posting this on behalf of Yacov Menashe Ben Rachamim.

Thank you for answering my question about The Chief Administrator of the Hebrew forum. Who is the administrator that runs the Hebrew website now that Oz left?

Also, please read the below comment on the air.

On the main English JTF website, the link to Noam Federman's page under the section to write to the Israeli authorities on his behalf is broken because the old link no longer exists as a result of changing to the new Hebrew site URL. I also think the link to his show on the Hebrew website should say "Federman LeLo Tzenzura", the name of his program, and not just "Tochnito Shel Noam Federman" just like the other Hebrew shows have their names listed.

דוד בן זאב אריה:
Dear Chaim

What is you opinion of Jewish Athletes and Celebrities that don't keep Kosher or Shabbat. They are setting a bad example.

KansasJew:
What should be the response of the Israeli Government regarding the Homicide bombing near the Israeli Nuclear Reactor that occurred recently. TY Chaim

Yisrael:
Shalom Chaim,

If Ron Paul wasn't anti-Semitic would you support him? Do you think that he is right on many issues?

Thanks,

Yisrael
