Comments on: The Rabbi’s Reject Shackle and Hoist Methods http://jcarrot.org/the-rabbis-reject-shackle-and-hoist-methods/ Jews, Food, and Contemporary Issues Sat, 22 Nov 2008 00:46:48 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.2 By: Michael Croland http://jcarrot.org/the-rabbis-reject-shackle-and-hoist-methods/#comment-4796 Michael Croland Mon, 03 Mar 2008 04:21:40 +0000 http://jcarrot.org/the-rabbis-reject-shackle-and-hoist-methods/#comment-4796 Thanks so much for your previous post about shackling and hoisting and for this one as well. While Israel's Chief Rabbinate has "made a conceptual decision to" do away with shackling and hoisting, "the implementation is something different, something that is going to take a long time" (that's in the words of the Orthodox Union's Menachem Genack in a 2/21 Forward article). While the proposed phase-out is good news, the lack of a time frame means that it might be meaningless for now. I'm admittedly late to post about the proposed phase-out, but I just did so here: http://heebnvegan.blogspot.com/2008/03/potential-victory-against-shackling-and.html (OR http://tinyurl.com/23c9pk). I definitely refered to -- and linked to -- the YNet article and this The Jew & The Carrot post in my post. :-) Thanks so much for your previous post about shackling and hoisting and for this one as well.
