   I know this is supposed to make them come off as distracted, but it seems like they just weren't so into the movie but you just come off as a bit of a knob.

    I could just as easily say that quality time is actually a useful metric and as a kid I definitely would've preferred a parent who spends more time with me on the weekends and wasn't "just around". Maybe I could bring a

    The important bit is that an individual rabbi cannot overturn anything; the power comes from a legislative entity called "The Sanhedrin". However, in order to be part of the sanhedrin you need to be ordained by another member of t

    This is very much an open question in halacha. I'd assume they'd use Mars time for sunrise/sunset, but how the calendar would work I have no idea. Halacha is very earth-centric and I don't know what it would look like in
