"ASK THE RABBI" by R. Mermelstein IS BACK!!!

Mermelstein and Gun Owners Alliance. Republication permitted ONLY if this e-mail alert is left intact in its original state. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Dear RKBA Friends and supporters,

We Welcome an Old Friend Back into the RKBA Arena!

It has been over two years since Rabbi R. Mermelstein took a much-needed respite from answering several thousand questions related to Judaism, firearms, and Second Amendment issues over a period of four years through the website of another organization.

Please read http://www.gunownersalliance.com/Mermelstein-02.htm for the details behind Rabbi Mermelstein’s absence from the Web, because he has told me in no uncertain terms that his only wish is to work in the present and not dwell on the past.

"Ask the Rabbi" is at: http://www.gunownersalliance.com/AskTheRabbi.htm

The ground rules for submitting questions to our new Ask the Rabbi feature are straightforward:

1. No questions within the parameters of Judaism, firearms, handloading or RKBA are off-limits. We only ask that you keep them clear, succinct, and to the point.

2. Rabbi Mermelstein has refused to accept one cent for the time he will donate to Gun Owners Alliance. Therefore, don’t scream foul if you don’t receive a response within 24 hours.

3. If you’re disgruntled by the work we do or by the reasons a rabbi is devoting time to the preservation of our American freedom that hinges on the unqualified Right to Keep and Bear Arms and feel moved to write disrespectful or inflammatory e-mail, I will be screening each and every submission. The Delete key on my keyboard is 100% functional. It is your time being wasted, not ours.

4. Rabbi@GunOwnersAlliance.com is the ONLY e-mail address to submit your questions to Rabbi R. Mermelstein.

5. http://www.gunownersalliance.com/AskTheRabbi.htm is the web page to see if your questions have already been answered.

Many old files are still quite timely and posted by subject matter. Perhaps your inquiry has already been answered. Even if it hasn’t, you may be pleasantly surprised to read something new.

- From the volume of e-mail I’ve received asking whatever became of a staple column on the Internet, we hope you are as pleased as we are to see the return of the ever popular "Ask the Rabbi" feature by Rabbi R. Mermelstein.

Sincerely,

Gun Owners Alliance Chris W. Stark - Director http://www.GunOwnersAlliance.com Director@GunOwnersAlliance.com *********************************

This guy is great. I used to love his stuff when he wrote for Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership. I was wondering where he went.

Looks interesting, the first I've heard of him.
Just clean up the post, it looks like it was attacked by graffiti artists!
(What IS that last paragraph?)

Mermelstein is not too common a name is it?

Wonder if he's kin to Max Mermelstein....a notorious figure from the South Florida cocaine cowboy days in the 80s.

Thanks, I was looking for that. This Rabbi rocks! I'm glad he's found a new home on the net.

Remember a few years ago when Dr. Laura Schleshinger (I know, I probably misspelled it) casually joked and told a caller to call 1-800-ASK-A-JEW? Some poor company got hundreds of calls about what an appropriate gift would be for the bar mitzvah of a friend's son. It was all pretty funny.

I've personally known a few Mermelsteins, so the name isn't ultra-uncommon.

I wonder what happened to the guy? (I Googled his name, and this old thread came up). His last "Ask the Rabbi" installment was back in Dec. of '05.
