May I play a computer game which includes Greek mythological creatures? @ShimonbM: Excellent comment. Yes, those kinds of creatures. 1. I don't know much about Greek mythology; I'm not sure I knew that nobody worshipped them until I saw your comment. 2. Or maybe, since the mythology includes idolatrous ideas, I worried that perhaps even the non-idolatrous parts were forbidden. |

Spitting at the High Priest on Yom Kippur Dear Shimon bM: Intriguing question. +0 though: it needs a better title. I wonder if you could please edit the question's title to summarize the question and to end with a question mark? |

Thank you! |

While playing a computer game, may I “worship” one of the game's “gods” to help me win? @yoel: I'd be intrigued to find out your rabbi's answer. It would be great if you could please create a separate question and attach his answer. |

What do you have to check for Shatnez? -1. A) R' Yirmiyohu Kaganoff disagrees with your first point. See his article "When Must I Check for Shatnez?". He looks at the sources and finds that, regarding garments, they aren't choshesh only for a mi'ut hamatzuy. B) See this post, s.vv. "It usually differs even from one identical suit to the next". C) Dear Ariel: Could you please edit your post and remove your theory about identical suits? D) Also, can you cite any rabbi to support your remaining points? |

While playing a computer game, may I “worship” one of the game's “gods” to help me win? @MonicaCellio: In the game, I do not play myself: I play a fictional character, such as a warrior or an archer. But when the game asks me to name the character, I might enter my real name: this makes the game assign a sensible filename to my saved game data file. |

Should I wear tefillin during Chol HaMoed? Dear all: Sam lives in the United States. Theoretically: He could think about where his father lived, and his paternal grandfather, and his paternal great-grandfather, and so on. Then, he could make a decision based on what the custom was in their countries. Would this be a good way for Sam to make a decision? |

May I vote Stack Exchange answers up or down during Chol Hamoed? @sam: You seem to be saying that if typing is allowed, then clicking should be allowed. Did I understand correctly? Well, based on past conversations I've had with R' Yacov Felder, I think typing isn't always allowed on Chol Hamoed. |
