Rabbi Fingerer has inspired and educated audiences of various backgrounds
Heshy Fried posts to FB: “Rabbi Fingerer has got to be one of the worst Jewish names ever, almost as bad as nutkis, schmuckler and dick.” From TorahAnyTime.com: Rabbi Yitzchok Fingerer is an internationally renowned lecturer and author. Rabbi Fingerer … Continue reading
Will Jewish Journal Hollywood Columnist Danielle Berrin Make A Good Rebbitzen?
For the past few months, journalist Danielle Berrin has been dating David Wolpe, a famous author and the senior rabbi at Sinai Temple in Westwood. Rabbi Wolpe is twice her age (he was born in 1958 and she was born … Continue reading

Rabbis Warn Against Celebrating Bin Laden’s Death
These rabbis evidently get their values more from leftism than from Judaism. The Jewish tradition celebrates the death of the wicked such as Haman. I’m embarrassed to have such foolish rabbis in Los Angeles speaking out with such nonsense. If … Continue reading
Rabbi Hershel Shachter’s Rav Revisionism
Marc B. Shapiro blogs: It is common to hear among YU figures the expression “hakhmei ha-mesorah,” referring to authoritative rabbinic spokesmen. Readers can correct me if I am mistaken, but I don’t think that this expression, with the meaning currently … Continue reading

Rabbi Wikileaks
Curious emails: I say start up a Rabbi Wikileaks. Expose all their foibles. Who’s eating pork? Who’s using electricity during the Sabbath? Who got drunk on the Dennis Prager cruise? Tell us, Luke. Tell us all.
R. Elchonon Wasserman
Jeff emails: “He was the most strident in keeping people from leaving. He was close to the Chofetz Chaim. I was never a big Litvak fan, despite all the postings on the internet with the revisionist ArtScroll history, I actually … Continue reading
Renting To Non-Jews
I think the Torah tradition would be solidly behind the banning rabbis on this one, even though it does not sound democratic. Much of Arab Israel will not rent to Jews. Most traditional Jews living anywhere in the world are … Continue reading
