Happy Hanukkah 2020! * 2
    #27081654 - 12/10/20 06:52 AM (3 years, 2 months ago)

A happy holiday season to those of you of the Jewish faith!

something i have been curious about for a long time, i always see Hasidic men smoking cigarettes, i used to have Jewish friends who smoked herbs and whose parents smoked herbs, and clearly alcohol is part of festivities in the Jewish traditions

like any religion or culture, addictions are generally frowned upon, but i am under the impression that Judaism does not take a strict stand against intoxicants in the same way that the Amish or Muslims, say, have these 'bans' on substances

does anyone have any thoughts or insight on this?

There’s a holiday called Purim where we’re commanded to get drunk, but I find Judaism isn’t really like a punishment kind of religion. Like, my Rabbi used to smoke like everyone did in the 70s. She saw it as weakness and holding her back from her full potential.

Is it forbidden? No, but it is frowned upon, but at the same time, I guess the feeling is like “do your best”.  You’re supposed to guard all life as precious, and smoking is dangerous to that health, but it’s on you to stop or not. I think some important Jewish thinker said something like “God bless the simpletons” in regard to smoking, meaning, it’s become so ingrained in our culture that you can’t really fault a person if they can’t stop.

'commanded' to get drunk, my kind of religion :smile:

i live in NYC and am constantly surprised and curious about Hasidism

at one point i was researching all the mitzvahs and what it means to be kosher, and it led me to a lengthy article about 'squeezing snails to extract their ink', for dyeing clothe presumably

just, wow

personally i would be a terrible Hasid, it seems like every hour of every day is totally smothered in rules

I live in a neighborhood that’s half reformed orthodox and half chabad Hasidic. Not a lot of smokers but quite a few hotties on Grindr. You have to get into th really conservative Hasidic movements before Jews get super judgemental about sinning and faggotry.

I have a couple of Jewish family members now. I'm a bit fuzzy on the details of Hanukkah, like I don't think I have seen the first or last nights if anything special happens with those. Just what I think were nights in the middle, a brief song in Hebrew and lighting candles.


When I was a kid we knew these other weirdo Catholics and our families decided to celebrate Passover seders together. I found them to be more authentic of a religious experience than most church stuff. And I think they were a big part of the reason my older sister eventually converted to Judaism.

how does a Grindr meet-up go down between a Hasid and anyone else?

this is much more interesting than squeezing snails

most Hasids are not allowed to use technology, although Yankee did have one, and he was a dirty little gambler

Chabad isn’t as nutty as other sects. My neighbors are pretty normal. They dress like Amish people on the sabbath, and some of them wear those little strings around their waist. Nobody around here is technology deprived. I live inside an Eruv so some of the sabbath rules are relaxed. https://www.bethsholom.org/eruv.html

Here’s a daily show story about an Eruv


Grindr hookups are the same. Speaking of Grindr, I see the former rabbi of the local synagogue who got arrested after appearing on to catch a Predator online all the time.

haha, i did not know that was called an Eruv, i learned about them a few years back, that explains why i get away with mad stuff under them, sort of, i don't even have to wear tzitzit

that 2nd one looks like a completely staged version of stuff that definitely happens

In extreme Orthodox Judaism, yeah...smartphones are frowned upon because it distracts you from your connection to God and the earth.  It would be hard to be, like, a Lubavitch gay man...that's for sure.  I saw a video on YouTube where a chasid guy in NYC had a smartphone for business purposes, which is completely acceptable, but his 9 year old kid was against it.

There's a Chabad in Fort Lauderdale that actually welcomes gay people and lots of gay folks go there.  It's a pretty liberal Chabad compared to ones in Boca Raton.  Women are allowed to wear sleeveless tops and skirts that kiss the knee line.  The Rabbi at that one told me he didn't care who people love as long as they live a good Jewish life.  Every Chabad I've gone to in Palm Beach County seems to be full of Israelis and the atmosphere isn't very welcoming to any outsiders.

Yeah a lot of people around here speak Hebrew, which I assume means they are Israeli. American Jews do not speak Hebrew to each other. Maybe Yiddish.

I'm not much of a betting person, but yeah, I'd take that bet.  Seems legit.
