Hilchot Shabbat 21:9-10 (Balancing competing values)

April 23, 2020 4:14 pm

A person is not permitted to move muktzah items on Shabbat.
A person is not allowed to cause needless pain to animals.
Halacha tries to be lenient in certain cases where following the letter of the law will cause a significant financial setback.
What does a person do when these three values all collide?

Trump's slanderous attack on Joe Scarborough is incompatible with leadership https://washex.am/2ZETRQh

Fun episode, it's sort of the story of second base. Among the takeaways: Jackie Robinson is underrated; Joe Morgan was insanely good; 1973 was a weird year for second basemen. (@EasterbrookG - the Non-Quarterback Non-Running Back NFL MVP makes a cameo appearance in this episode.)

Yesterday, I had the misfortune to pass by several individuals chuckling (at me) about the ‘libs’ (read: not real men) still wearing masks. I felt like a designated driver among passed-out drunks, so I just walked away.
Education matters.
Leadership matters.
Elections matter.
