The only comment directly about RE was the irony of a frum jew honored by carrying the greek torch. The greek tradition was what I said was assur, not his behavior. Please go back and reread my comment and you will see it was written looking at the irony and humor, not the cold halachic style you may first have read it as.<br /><br />Relax DZ, no need to get mean.shaya gnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-75430576919368753542012-06-28T21:19:41.902+03:002012-06-28T21:19:41.902+03:00@ shaya g

Now we have frum jews "honored" to carry the greek olympic torch. tee heeshaya gnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-10474707838925448142012-06-28T16:50:47.076+03:002012-06-28T16:50:47.076+03:00Fascinating if not a bit weird, I mean what does o...Fascinating if not a bit weird, I mean what does one have to with the other?Pragmaticianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08724757238921859366noreply@blogger.com
