ProJewGreekChristian:
Shalom Mr. ben Pesach,

I have a question about Ham. I’ve never understood how Ham is the “father of [censored]” if his brothers were not [censored] as well. Is it because Noah’s curse is materialized via Hashem with pigment sullying ramifications? So Ham was a Honkey (more or less) but his children were [censored]? Are the details of this curse in the Talmud? If so, then therefore many of the arguments provided by the good southern crackers as to segregation being God's will because of the cruse of Ham were actually extracted from Jewish sources by these good ole' Dixie boys (whom I love)?

PS: Did you know that the Greek word for “now” is virtually phonetically identical to “Torah”? and also that “but” in Greek is virtually phonetically identical to “Allah”?

Thank you for answering all my past questions. Have a wonderful week, one that hopefully includes Torah / Talmud study (since I know it's your favorite thing to do!).

Gd bless!

This weeks davar Torah was great , the way you blended Kahanism with the parsha was so deep, I was moved.

Please give some advise; I know a Jew who dated a gentile  but then became religious. He recently had to break up with her because she was not Jewish and he is having a hard time because he is the the one that broke up with her. He is starting to feel religion will keep him lonely forever. If ultimately after 120 years such a person never finds  his beshert was the break up worth it?

2. If animals have no soul and do not go to olam haba why arent animals in the same category of plants; is it because they have blood and there is life in the blood like the torah states? I go back to wondering then about why there is no sabar lechim on plants as they are living things too!

Thank you for all you do for the righteous,
Chai

1. You have frequently said that all of Yugoslavia belongs to the Serbs.Some people have said that letting the Serbs keep all of Yugoslavia is like letting the Soviets keep all of Eastern Europe because both countries have kept this land since the end of WW2.

2. What is your insight on the Danish Cartoons 5 years ago?

3. What is the objective of the Black Hebro Movement in Places like Southern Israel? Why do they steal fruits from Jews in the marketplaces of Dimona?

4. The United States should watch who should send it's weapons to. For Example, the U.S sent Finland in World War II 43 buffalo Fighter Planes to fight against Soviet aggression which was invading Finland in 1940 a year later, when Germany invaded the Soviet Union Finland sided with Nazi Germany and used our planes.

Yaakov Mendel:
Shalom Chaim,

Assuming a Jewish man, who was raised in a secular, assimilated Jewish family, has children with a non-Jewish woman, my first question is the following : is it even worse, according to the Halacha, if he is married to that woman or if he is not married ?

Later on, Hashem brings this man back to Judaism. He becomes very concerned that the mother of his children is not Jewish but he loves her dearly and he thinks it would be very unfair to leave her for being non-Jewish as he did not care about Judaism when they met and never made it an issue back then. He tries to raise his children in a Jewish manner and to give them some of the Jewish education he unfortunately did not receive in his childhood. He conveys to them his love for the Jewish people and for Israel. He sincerely hopes that they will decide to go through a Halachic conversion process.

Considering the secular way in which this man was brought up, that must explain to a large extent why he did not feel concerned about having children with a non-Jewish woman when he was younger, and considering his return to Judaism at a later age and his efforts to raise his children as Jews although it is obviously not always easy when the mother is not Jewish, my second question is : can he be forgiven for his intermarriage ? I am asking from of the point of view of Torah judaism, not from a subjective or from a "progressive" judaism point of view.

Toda lecha veshavoua tov

Shalom Chaim ha Gibor!

What do you think of the Israeli actor Juliano Mer-Khamis and his murder in Jenin? I think he was a sick, evil demented individual whose death shows that no matter what you do, true koran-believing muslims want to kill all of us. Where is Mr. Mer Khamis right now?

Is it better for American Jews to send their kids to public school or Solomon Shechter? (Or as Yosef ZT'L called it, "Solomon Schlechter")
Who is the most dastardly person that Solomon Shechter is associated with, in your eyes?

Which school is more evil, Yeshiva University of Al-Quds "university"?

What do you think of the Jewish Theological Seminary? Do you have a nickname for it?

Kol Tuv, Chaim ha Pikeach!

PS Last week, rWg and I were traveling and had to walk through the neighborhood of Chelsea Manhattan. It seemed like everywhere we turned, there were queer sodomites abounding. I even saw a filthy "couple" holding hands. The sight of these hideous sodomite deviants was enough to make us sick. What a chilul HaShem. Is there a more evil neighborhood anywhere in Manhattan?
