The “Mishpacha” Magazine, a Family Destroyer!

It is common knowledge that a very intricate part of Shabbos Kodesh is our preparation for it. Authentic Jewish fathers prepare for Shabbos in a myriad of forms. This is usually based on the level of that father in the knowledge of Torah. Some prepare a shiur on a Rambam to say on the Shabbos table. Some prepare a vart on the parsha. Some simply look up a Rashi to share with the family during the holy time of the family gathering around the Shabbos table.

Women also prepare. Besides preparing all the Shabbos delights that Authentic Jewish mothers and girls work so diligently on and fill the entire air of the house with luscious smells from Wed. afternoon until licht benching, they too can prepare some Torah material for the Holy Shabbos. Maybe they will say some Tehillim, or maybe they set aside a mussar seffer to look at which they can enjoy and appreciate. (Books by Rabbi Miller are especially recommended), or maybe just a book with authentic stories about authentic Jewish values written by authentic Jewish authors.

However, I know for a fact that some Jewish homes, while maybe also preparing like mentioned above, also engage in other preparations. They go out and spend money to bring home with them toilet paper. Not clean toilet paper, but dirty toilet paper with feces on it. This toilet paper ruins the entire holiness of the neshama of Shabbos. It ruins, usually very subliminally, the mind of Jewish women and girls and those of the boys who read them as well. Any holiness that someone might acquire during the Shabbos, will be with no question, extinguished by the feces that is written on these pieces of toilet paper.

Now, I am not referring to The New York times. I know that all the readers of this blog are smarter than that. I am talking about the magazines which claim to be in-line with authentic Jewish ideology, but very subliminally undermine it. One of the most sinister, stinking pieces of garbage that is for sale “out there” on Thurs and Friday in order to contaminate Jewish homes on Shabbos is called “Mishpacha” and is sold in English and in Hebrew versions. This magazine has become very successful over the years being very well laid out graphically and by engaging very successful writers and journalists. However, for those who have any sense of Authentic Jewish smell, they know exactly what this piece of feces is worth and exactly where they want to lead their readers.

(We are not by mentioning this magazine saying in anyway that any other is any better. We will get to them as well)

We have decided to begin a crusade against this awful disgusting magazine call “Mishpacha” (Ruiner). It will be executed in different areas, arenas, and organs of the media. And indeed, Authentic Judaism in its righteous might will fight through to absolute victory, which in this case will be successfully ejecting this magazine from every Authentic Jewish Home.

We request from all our readers to draw to our attention any quotes, articles, or information that could be of a help in this worthy endeavor.

אנו בית ישראל! חוסו על נפשכם ואת נשמות בני בתיכם ואל תתן את המשחית הנקראת “משפחה” (גם באנגלית וגם בעברית) לבוא בתוך בתיכם. עמדו חזקים נגד אלה שכל רצונם וחפצם לטמאות נפשכם ונפש עולליכם ואל תתנו להם יד ורגל בתוך בתי ישראל הכשרים

[Update Dec. 7, a day that will go down in history in infamy]:

A reliable source has reported that indeed “Rabbi” Dov Shurin has been added as second in command on the Mishpacha Rabbinical Board. Mishpacha magazine explained this move by “wanting to open up to a “greater”, “more colorful”, reading audience”. The Magazine further said that Rabbi Shurin possesses all the needed credentials to be on the Rabbinical Board of Mishpacha, that being: A long beard, a black yarmulka, a guitar, and a deep understanding of the needs of bored women on Shabbos. Being that he is a grandson of the Late Reb Yaakov Kaminetsky he will fit in perfectly with the already tight woven board.

Authentic Judaism: It’s a mashel, but a real one.
