If you don’t have an Internet filter, you can no longer Daven for the Amud at the Lakewood Satmar Bais Medrash, according to the attached sign hanging in Satmar. The filter, it says, must beapproved by Rabbonim. It does not specify if it is referring to a home, office or both.
The new Takanah was signed by the Satmar Dayan, Rabbi Mordechau Betzalel Klein.
The photo was sent to TLS today by the Internet Asifa arrangers.
Are there other Takanos / Disqualifiers too? or is this the only one??
Well, I guess I can’t daven before hte omud in Satmar because I don’t have a filter at home. Which makes sense not to have a filter since I don’t have internet at home either.
Meaningless. Obviously no way of enforcing, so what’s the point?
Those signs have been there for a long while, at least 6 months ago in the pre-asifa days.
Veiner dayan in Boro park posted the same time of policy.
Yasher Koach
i’m happy someone started to read the signs. they’ve been up for several YEARS there.
now perhaps the other signs will be noticed- close your cellphone, don’t talk by davening….
“If you molest a child, you may not daven for the amud. There is no exception.”
can i daven for the amud if i don’t have a filter in my mouth & talk lashon hara C”V
WHICH IS WORSE Lashon Hara that can ruin a persons life C”V (& even forgiveness won’t make up for it) OR INTERNET?
Good morning… This is very old news, this sign have been up for a very long time and was already in the new along time ago
How about smartphones ?
Not to minimize the need for a filter, but what this shows is continued monopilazation by the person(s) behind the asifa, as this sign has been up for a long time. To point to this as “NEW!!” and try to chap as many people (moderated)
This sign should be in EVERY shul!!!
Whats with not having a beard i think one who destroy’s his tzuras Hayehudi is worse then having internet!!!!!!!!!!!
Shalom:
Do you know of a filter for lashon harah? Your point makes no sense. Of course loshon hara is terrible, so are many things. When it comes to the internet there is a simple solution. What’s wrong with at least fighting one of the many problems out there?
Which Satmar is this shul under
EVEN BETTER PEOPLE WITHOUT A FILTER SHOULDN’T BE ALLOWED INTO SHULS, THE SCHOOLS SHOULD THROW THEM OUT!!
THERE’S NO EXCUSE!!!!!!!!!!
WOULD U LEAVE OPEN POISEN IN YOUR HOME??????????
# 15 –
The Lakewood Satmar branch appears to be non-denominational and respectful to all Satmar religions and sects.
#14
because loshon harah IS ALOT WORSE THAN INTERNET
IT KILLS 3 PEOPLE AND INTERNET JUST KILL’S 1 !!!!!!!!
I FULLY AGREE WITH # 8
to yitz:
you asked if i know of a filter for the mouth & to avoid lashon hara.
ABSOLUTE SILENCE-between people- is the solution with no excuses. between a person & hashem you can talk whatever you want whenever.
sometimes people who R”L talk lots of Lashon hara, leave Hashem no choice but to take away they’re mouths & make them into a mute R”L. DONT MAKE THIS HAPPEN TO YOU C”V start silence NOW
pirkei avos & Shlomo Hamelech says, i have never seen such a great gift as the gift of Silence-only bad can come from talking….

MODERATOR:
Without revealing my comment, can you please explain why you moderated most of it?
Will satmar ask me if I have internet before taking my donation?
reply to 21.
They will not ask you if you have a filter before they take your donation but neither will they ask you if you haave a filter before they give you a hot delicious meal if you are ever stuck in a NYC hospital!!
To Chabadnik it is possible to have a Beard and still Destroy your Tzures Yehudi as a Matter of fact we live at a time when people are Obsessed with Chitzonios at the expense of Pnimiyos perhaps it would be better not to have a Beard like this the person will work on the important things in Life once the person has a Beard he can decide i need not Learn Torah Biyun or work on My Middos or Yiras Shomayim because I have a Beard There Were Rishonim in France Chacmei Lonil Who Perposely did not grow beards for the above reason To Paraphrase the words of An Isreali Meshulach who recently visited Ny for the first time he said i need to go back to Eretz Yisroel and tell people a new Phenomenon I witnessed in America “Chilonim dressed In the Garb OF Chareidim”
To #23 number one a beard is not Chitzonios its Penimios as is explained in sefer HATANYA countless time’s also the ARIZAL explains how a beard is Penimios The Alter Rebba in sefer Hatanya says that a Beard is Yud Guimmel Middos Shel rachamim it brings to the person alot good hashpaos number 2 the chitzoinios brings on the pemios in all asspects!!!!!!!!!!!!
MOSHIACH NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
