“Chassidus teaches us that we need make spirituality especially from the mundane”
So you have a TV in your house since chassidus teaches us that we need to make spirituality from the mundane
internet destroys homes and families,
we should be responsible!!!!!
face reality, its a danger
why do we need to look at other communities, our own Rabbonim have said time and again that we shouldn’t have internet in our homes, if we don’t listen to our own rabbis, are we gonna listen to someone else’s?
In the last notice they had banned strawberries too, can we have those now if we don’t have blackberries?
😛
As lubavitchers do we believe in daas torah?
They are right…. Did the Rebbe permit TV? ABSLOUTELY NOT. These phones make TV look harmless. And I believe any man who says otherwise is covering up…
The truth is that the chachomim in past generations made siyogim for us we didn’t have to do it ourselves as sometimes it’s hard.
The problem is that a complete ban isn’t the answer since “ein hatzibur yochol lamod bo”.
A serious group of rabonim from all groups ( Chabad, litvish, chasidish…) must get together and organize a serious das torah on the issue.
…you won’t see MANY of these “chareidim” WITHOUT an iPhone or BlackBerry. Just saying.
trying to poke fun at other successful communities
I also use a smartphone and I also find this pashkvil too”extreme” but you know what else they are right. It is way too easy to access shmutz. All those who will say like #2 so why did the rebbe speak against TV? Avadai a smartpohne has same problems.
is destroying jewish homes. get help now. Guardyoureyes.org
before its toolate….
Just last week there was an article on the shmutz in the internet. Having an internet capable phone is asking for trouble. This is one area where Chabad should take a lesson. From last week’s article it’s clear that many need whatever protection they can get.
This IS something everyone should take seriously! It can be used for both good and bad. This is a perfect Rav and Mashpia question. Let no one fool themselves. Do it for your own benefit!
I never thought we at Chabad are going to be so close minded
Like the crazies in mah sherarim. I total agree with #2
The dangers of the Internet is huge, If the Rebbe didn’t allow TV the internet is much worse.
Chassidus teaches us that we need make spirituality especially from the mundane. The Rebbe’s outlook was always to use technology for good. smart phones are a tool just like anything else in life, and could be used for good or bad. Rather than focusing and advertising the “bad” that can be done with smartphones, they would be much better off advertising how you can learn chitas, rambam, daf hayomi and have many seforim with you wherever you go. I guess that “b’mkom s’machshvto shel adam, sham hu”… actually, these rabbis probably don’t know much about these devices, it’s probably the… Read more »
no more collive with my blackberry?
