Why? Some stuff is more important. Some less. The 12 minute guy is probably saying the important stuff. <BR/><BR/>It's like kramers living room, all about levels.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4040698769460875478.post-34568847405601277622008-09-03T18:35:00.000-04:002008-09-03T18:35:00.000-04:00You have a kiddush club during the week?

Like I said, I'm a stickler on time related issues (religious or not) and I just want to know the mindset behind it.<BR/>Personally, I think it's generally a case of apathy. That doesn't mean G-d doesn't love the person as much as the guy who comes 10 minutes early, or the fact that he has a huge Yezter Harah he is fighting and wins (to a large extent) doesn't count. It just means I dont get it and trying to be Dan L'Chaf Z'chus, I want to know the mindset behind that thinking.ThePeoplesChamphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16665984137973743304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4040698769460875478.post-43928536996859193232008-08-25T15:08:00.000-04:002008-08-25T15:08:00.000-04:00How about just giving props for the fact that the ...How about just giving props for the fact that the 12 minute guy showed up at all?

They don't really care about saying all the tefilos, they are just looking to clear their consciences and get 'credit' for showing up.<BR/>Many others are just lazy and don't care about missing karbonos or beginning of tefilos, b/c they know they can make them up in half the time themselves anyway.<BR/>I'm not justifying it, but there's your answer.The Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02603011937930444955noreply@blogger.com
