Do you know what happens when you assume?

I will respond now on only 2 words:

1) Zonah: To the best of my understanding and certainly in modern-day terminology, this refers to a prostitute. I am hoping that you did not mean this.

2) Totally: How about: not at all?!?!

It's amazing that some Orthodox people are so lacking in sensitivity.

She is a zona and posul to a cohen. It's not her fault totally but this is the sad fact. Her brother is chayav misa for arayos. It's amazing that some Orthodox people are so ignorant of basic Jewish law.
