    1. We know what's wrong but don't want to accept it. Just look at why it's this town that has this issue on a greater scale than other towns. We no longer chase the torah ideals, we chase the goyishe ideals. This town has become a town of people that "keep" the mitzvos, instead of being a torah town.

    2. How many people got divorced in lakewood last year 5784?

    3. This 'divorce rate' business seems like nonsense to me. How high is it? How high was it? How many divorces are preventable? Who says the 'high' rate is a bad thing?

    4. So now what has been declared for decades as ever worsening evidence of communal deterioration is swiftly being revisited to a good thing!

    5. Declared by whom? Newspaper editors?

    6. This town is still a town full of Torah and mitzvos and all other good things. That's a fact!

      The divorce rate is a major problem. Unfortunately, our 'news' media is all in on encouraging divorce and the breakdown of families.

      The poskim (kitzur, for one) point out that it's much more difficult to do teshuva for a 'safek' aveira than for definite aveira. That's because when we recognize our mistakes and inequities, we can be sincere in our teshuva. With a 'possible' aveira, how can we sincerely do teshuva? How much more so when we have allowed ourselves to be convinced that an inequity is a 'mitzvah'??

      When we decided to listen to those who think they're 'smarter' than the Torah and that divorce is a mitzvah, how can we recognize all the harm we've done and are doing - to be able to do teshuva on it?

  2. weather.com claims that there is a 24% possibility of rain on the second night of Yomtov, and a 50% chance of rain on Monday Chol Hamoed.
    We need to daven hard, storm the heavens for rachamim, that Hashem will allow us to keep His mitzvos in the optimal manner, and He should show us His favor by accepting the mitzvos that we do. Please, don't throw a pitcher of water in our faces.
