AddReply(347278,"Adam:  Why would haredim ever recognize it?","Velvel","silver spring","09/27/08","A sanhedrin, an actual functioning real sanhedrin, goes against being haredi.  It goes against the entire haredi hashkafa.   Why would they ever approve of such a thing?  Even if their own self-chosen haredi leaders could be a bulk of the membership they would never accept it because it contradicts what being haredi is all about!   Call me crazy but this is just the way I see it.   Do you disagree?");
AddReply(346660,"Reply to Mr. Medad","Adam","Monsey, NY","09/25/08","I wasn\'t accusing you of using the term \"henious\" - I didn\'t mean to imply anything about the severity (or lack thereof) of your observaion.\n\nAs to the Temple Mount - I would love to go up there, but despite the few sources that you quoted, the majority of the observant world does not seem to rule that way.  Since normative halacha (Jewish law) is decided according to the majority, my own yirat ha-onesh (fear of punishment) will continue to prevent me from ascending.\n\nWith G-d\'s help, we will continue to strengthen the \"nascent Sanhedrin\" until it is universally recognized - at which point the Sanhedrin can make a ruling on this matter.  If such a Sanhedrin were to permit it, I would be thrilled.");
AddReply(346172,"Dear Adam","YMedad","Shiloh","09/24/08","I don\'t think I termed the lack of identifying the Temple Mount as \'heinous\' or even implied that.  I just noted it was missing and that my opinion is that in glossing over it, a mistake was made.  Maybe Monsey people are reflexively extreme?\n\nAs for problems of \"karet\", you could of course assume the position of the Ravad who permits entrance to all areas of the Har Habayit as he holds there is no \'karet\'.  Or the position of other Rishonim that the sanctity no longer applies or that without walls there is no sanctity.  In other words, there are many lenient opinions.  Historically, there was a Bet Knesset near the Cotton Gate until after the Crusader period.  Even the Rambam ascended.  So, the issue is not \'karet\' but are we allowed to invalidate a mitzva simply because we think we can\'t identify  where the 500 square cubit courtyard was?  - when actually we can.");
AddReply(346111,"Going up on the Temple Mount: well intentioned, but foolish","Adam","Monsey, NY","09/24/08","First of all, I don\'t think Ir David\'s omission is such a henious crime.  In fact, the Temple Mount appears prominently in the center of their map.  Its shape and proximity to the label \"Kotel\" are de facto labels.\n\nAs to the general concept of ascending the Mount:  I really truly agree with the motives of those who go up.  I just think it\'s foolish to risk kares (spiritual excommunication) to make a political point (even a Judeo-political point).  \n");
AddReply(346009,"My comment","Hadassa","Eli","09/23/08","Shalom!\n\nWe can\'t post on INN blogs because of an interface problem with our Linux system so I couldn\'t post this:\n\nYes, I agree that the Temple Mount should be labeled whenever it\'s relevant, like on the map that you have pictured. Even if, because of our own stupidity, we don\'t have full control of the Mount, we should still keep in on our minds.\n\nDoes it seem strange to you that even the Israelis who think that the Arabs have the right to the Temple Mount, call it the Temple Mount? Doesn\'t calling it the Temple Mount assume that a Jewish Temple belongs there? Or am I just being naive and expecting woolly-brained leftists to actually think about what they say?\n\nHadassa DeYoung ");

AddReply(345764,"maybe that","nomis","cape town","09/23/08","when Israel had the chance in 67 to liberate the temple mount properly,they handed it to the mohamids,so maybe the people who made the map are unsure if Israel really wants the mount.I as a jew am uncertain in thinking that they do really want it.");
AddReply(345691,"Theres really too many things to","les","Ayr","09/23/08"," consider in answering the question you seek as who made up the map and to who was it really intended and is it a farce, and on and on.  I\'m anxious to see other comments, but I know how I feel and justafiably so.");
