In matters of the hour

1. What does the rabbi think about religious homosexuals who organize in a group to gain legitimacy in the community? Is this different from religious Sabbath desecrators who would organize in the same way?
2. It seems to me that the rabbi wrote that nowadays a son and a daughter are enough to fulfill the obligation of a father. Assuming that I remember correctly, how does this align with the article: No cousin comes until the souls have left the body, and therefore, according to this, is there an interest in bringing into the world as many souls as possible in order to hasten redemption?

  1. It’s not fundamentally different, except that gays suffer from inappropriate treatment and Sabbath desecrators do not.
  2. First, this article can be interpreted in other ways. Second, I do not determine a worldview based on legendary sayings. Third (continuation of the second), there is currently a problem in the world that the Sages were probably not aware of. Fourth, I did not understand why to bring up a legendary saying when there is a clear halacha “to create on the Sabbath”, and I also talked about that, that indeed it seems that a son and a daughter are enough. Fifth, at most we will wait a little longer for Ben David. It will take a little longer for the souls to be exhausted (by the way, it seems to me that the Arizal wrote that in his day almost everyone was already reincarnated, because the souls had already been exhausted).

Yes. But there is a problem with the concept of "religious Sabbath breakers." If there is one thing that defines religiosity, it is keeping the Sabbath.
