A little bit about myself
I grew up Modern Orthodox
Chassidim, please hold your boos til after the set
Thank you
and I actually studied in Yeshiva for a year
Chassidim, please hold your boos til after the set
Thank you
I'll never forget. I learned so much in this Yeshiva
I learned the laws of Shomer Negiah
I learned the laws of Shabbos
I learned that my entire childhood was a lie
and that my Yiddishkeit
wasn't as strong as I thought it was
I remember the first conversation I had there
So, tell me about yourself. Tell me about your family.
Well Rabbi, actually I grew up Modern Orthodox
you know, we Davened, we kept Shabbos
we kept kosher, I mean except dairy of course
So you didn't keep kosher.
No Rabbi, we kept kosher
but I'd grab a slice of pizza, it's not a big deal.
Yeah, that's not...
Have you heard of Bishul Akum?
Bless you, Rabbi.
Bishul Akum. It's where a Jew
oversees the cooking process.
Rabbi, I watched him put the pizza in the over every time
it's fine
needless to say, after that
I decided to stay Shana Meuveret another year
and I called my Mom very excited
she's a strong supporter of Israel
you know, like if I would miss the Israeli Day Parade
for a soccer game
she would consider me Neturei Karta
actually now that I think about it
she would consider me worse than the Neturei Karta
because they attend the Israeli Day Parade
