Series, Episode 2
Question
Following up on the question that was asked here yesterday.
Do you think it is permitted to watch content that sometimes includes immodest scenes, even if it sometimes leads to improper thoughts? The viewing is of course for its artistic / entertainment value and the like.
I seem to remember that the Rabbi wrote something about this in “Walking Among Those Who Stand,” but I don’t remember now what it was, and I also remember that the points weren’t clear to me even then (it seems to me that the main point was actually that the Rabbi is not in that situation and therefore can’t issue a ruling about it).
Answer
Why do you think I’m not in that situation? I am astonished!
In any case, see column 487.
Discussion on Answer
I have no interest in making viewing recommendations here.
Series/movies that the Rabbi especially liked and can recommend?
