It's why long time citizens don't like immigrants sometimes. They're afraid they'll be forced to change and they resent the people bringing about that change.offthedwannabhttp://yeshivaforum.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6642469491548710234.post-80823425743205871182012-05-18T07:09:14.893-04:002012-05-18T07:09:14.893-04:00I just had a couple more thoughts on this...
Firs...I just had a couple more thoughts on this...<br /><br />First off, your husband talks about your kids watching TV... Most Yeshivish families either let their kids watch videos online (like YouTube or I saw that one father made a youtube that wouldn't have "untznius stuff on the sides") or they do DVD player only.... Also, if NO ONE is allowed to have a TV, who is the market for Uncle Moishe? It sure aint modern folks with song about how great it is to be a talmid chochmum.... Just like all the Yeshivish women (well most) use birth control. They like to lie and also people know enough not to talk about certain things like that in an interview, which brings me to another point... being betrayed by your husband who spoke lashon hara about you right in front of you must have been the worst. Honestly, what he did telling those things was... horrible. A married couple is supposed to be united against the rest of the world.... his comments were anything but.<br /><br />But what do I know? I'm not an FFB, either, so I also don't "count" on this planet.Michaltastikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358698308334285154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6642469491548710234.post-5895263066219743812012-05-17T23:57:33.008-04:002012-05-17T23:57:33.008-04:00"Also, as a BT, I couldn't possibly under..."Also, as a BT, I couldn't possibly understand the importance of the yeshiva system in a Jewish child's development."<br /><br />I'll just help you by translating this.... when he says development, he means corruption and being turned into a shallow princess. <br /><br />Builder should be glad his girls didn't get into BY de snootiness.... He'd have ended up with daughters who think it's important to go to all sorts of expensive vacations and such.... <br /><br />It's funny, though, what FFBs think that they wouldn't have had the courage to become religious.... if I were raised as a religious Jewess... I probably would have gone OTD.Michaltastikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358698308334285154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6642469491548710234.post-32745542036325316112012-05-17T12:50:09.254-04:002012-05-17T12:50:09.254-04:00Thing 1 and Thing 2 are taken directly from my fav...Thing 1 and Thing 2 are taken directly from my favorite Doctor, Edward S.

It sounds like it would have done all the damage that idiot rav accused you of causing.<br />And do you know why FFB's don't like BT's? It's insecurity. See, the average FFB doesn't know anything else and is raised in an environment where the outside world is evil, seductive and looking to drain your neshama from you like some ephemeral vampire. Go into the outside world, you're taught, and you'll get suck away from Torah never to return.<br />And then the BT comes into the room, the person raised in that outside world, who should never have found their way into Torah and who instead rejected all the narishkeit and became observant. The BT approaches every mitzvah with sincerity and excitement while the FFP does it because he always has, it's just part of the routine and not a genuine interaction with the Divine. And the FFB wonders: would I have had the strength the make this choice? Why don't I have the same excitement to do mitzvos? <br />And instead of working on improving himself, he does the opposite - he cuts you down so he can feel superior. No different than the bully in the schoolyard.Mighty Garnel Ironhearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09571194550300367249noreply@blogger.com
