When did Ruth convert? I would also say that the end of the malbim of and I am as one of your nation is telling. |

When did Ruth convert? @DoubleAA I can accept that she actually underwent conversion, whatever that looked like in those days when she arrived in Israel. In my mind, the only hint at a moment of transition in the p'shat of the text are those p'ssukim from perek aleph. All the other inferences are great but less supported by the p'shat. So if I had to rephrase my answer I would say. The only indication in the pshat of the text is that the conversion happened at that point. However there are those who suggest that she converted when she arrived in yehuda. |

When did Ruth convert? מלבי"ם רות פרק א פסוק טז כי מגמת הליכתי הוא מצד כי עמך עמי ואלהיך אלהי, שכבר תפשתי תורת אלהיך ומנהגי בני עמך ואני כאחת מבני עמך: ok so this is the end of malbim it says clearly that she had already accepted torah |

When did Ruth convert? ALl I said was that the pashut phsat is that none of this happened. I also said that people use this to try and undermine the halakhic requirements of giyur which I should I guess have qualified. I think that anyone who uses Ruth to do so is absolutely wrong and doing something atrocious |

When did Ruth convert? And so by implication this is when it happened no? isnt the malbim saying that if you were not to accept me right here and now I would do it anyway with someone else. |

Counting the Omer non-verbally There is an interesting parallel discussion around a woman counting 7 clean days after she finishes menstruating. There are some who pasken there that you have to count verbally and some say that all you need is Mudaut HaMinyan knowledge of the count. This is different but it would be interesting to compare. |

How were men allowed to watch an execution? you are asking a bigger question but I would respond first to the smaller one. In the movie the actress isnt really dead. But I would say that yes probably if one saw the body of an actress in a movie and she or he was pale / bloody and naked one would probably not have sexual thoughts. |

Is catch and release fishing permitted? שו"ת שרידי אש חלק ב סימן צא עמוד תרה הנה במה שכתב הנוב"י והכ"ו דבמיתה לא שייך איסור דצער בעלי חיים נ"ל להביא ראי' גם מגמ' עבודה זרה י"ג, ב דפריך: ולשוי' גיסטרא? עיי"ש ברש"י. ומוכח דבמיתה ליכא איסור דצער בעלי חיים. וכן מפורש בתוס' בבא בתרא כ', א ד"ה כיון, שהקשו שם: "כולה בהמה שקל ושדי לכלבים"? |

Is catch and release fishing permitted? LeTzorech Ha'Adam must refer to adding pleasure of some sort and lechvod h'adam the prevention of some pain. This is the case because the example R Moshe uses is about adding pleasure ie shechita for nochrim as aposed to avoiding some pain to a person. Either way it is clear that R Moshe is against hunting even if he did not say assur. |

Is catch and release fishing permitted? In part you are correct. It says that כי כל דבר שהוא לצורך האדם ליכא איסור צער בע"ח if there is any human benefit you can kill an animal. I also mentioned that he says that for the specific animals that he mentioned Rav Moshe clearly had a preference not to kill animals. He never says assur. So in the case of catch and release where they are lower life forms and they are not being harmed merely trapped it seams clear that he would permit it. |

Is catch and release fishing permitted? Interesting assertion. I have to think about that. My one concern is that it is difficult to make halakhic conclusions from the M"N as it is a book of machshava (philosophy) |
