reverse Ahavas Yisroel
There was one Aliya left...
2 possibles candidates
One “sheiner yid”..
You know the type..
Another
In the back..
No hat..
Perhaps a BT..
My gut was to go with the one in the back..
My Rav perplexed...
Wanted to know why
I wasn’t giving the first guy..
I was about to tell him..
I’ve been in the real world
Long enough..
To be impressed..
When I realized..
I’m just as guilty..
As he..

So true.
I'm guilty of the same.
you are wise.
so many boast open-ness & non-judgmental-attitudes by being just as narrow as they say they're above.
it takes real honesty & unusual objectivity to see past that...
i respect you for that.

Thanks..
Thats exactly it..In our thoughts of justice and righteousness and disdain fr what we perceive as vain we can be guilty of stereotyping in the worst way...
lvnsm...
well..keep talkin girl..
Good for you for realizing it.
Nobody is non-judgemental.
What I would like to know: after your realization, how did go / would you have gone about taking a decision in the end?
Sorry for the syntax error above...
uh... who you callin "child"?
So so true. We all are judgmental and judgmental about those we percieve to be more judgmental than ourselves...

An extreme of this behavior are those people who can't stand when people are always taking the jewish person's side... so they end up always sticking up for the non jews... i know a few of those myself..
True a perfect time to work on it.
forgive me, father, for i have sinned...

The need to show ur not like one way can lead to the other extreme..which is just as bad..

Speak, my daughter, speak so that I may absolve you of your sin.
