  • AMAZING

    Mussar from a Illegal alien employed illegally by the shul- I feel better now. Im calling immigration

    • So sad.

      The guy speaks the absolute truth, and it disturbs you so much you want him thrown out. What a pathetic creature you are! Shame on you.

    • The who thinks he is exempt...

      If you think his words don’t apply to you, then they probably apply more to you than to anyone else.

    • mussar

      constructive mussar take it at face value
      Hevey Mokabel Es Haemes M’mish’amroy
      who told you is illegal?

  • picaboo shimon

    will he be singing kol nidre this yom kippur or will they hire a rabbi and chazzan?

    • Milhouse

      Chassidus includes mussar. It’s mussar plus. Tanya is, before anything else, a mussar sefer.

    • Chosid

      Good. Learn chasidus, especially what the Alter Rebbe writes in Tanya about how great a sin talking in Shul is. Oy! Chasidus mentions sin? Oy Vey.
      Stop the talking and show some respect.

      To Musar is for goyim: According to you, when the nevi’im gave mussar to bnei yisroel – they were talking to the goyim. Is Sefer Yirmeya and Sefer Yeshaya only “for goyim”? Chassidus wan’t yet invented.

    If it is clear to this goy, kol sh’ken it should be clear to us. Turn the stupid (smart) phone off during t’filah.

  • Happened to me

    Where I worked, a goy (did not think I was that loud) heard me say something inappropriate (after I lost my cool). “Hey. I heard that!…”
    The next morning he says to me,”… I thought you were a man of G-d, and here you go saying, “__________.” When he told an African co-worker about it, he exclaimed to me,”..,YOU SAID THAT?!”
    I was so embarrassed and said,”no,I did not say that.” Then I got,”not only does he curse, but he even lies…you must have a T.V. in your house.”
