Sep 20, 2019 at 20:26 comment added Oliver @Meir ‘s comment is underrated. Pilpulim are cute, some might even think they’re fun but, WADR, the question is silly. A mute would be accountable for sinning but deprived of the opportunity to repent because he can’t speak?

Sep 19, 2019 at 18:29 comment added robev @Salmononius2 someone mute isn't a cheresh. A Cheresh is אינו שומע ואינו מדבר. A mute is שומע ואינו מדבר
Sep 17, 2019 at 13:48 comment added Salmononius2 What would a Cheresh be doing Teshuvah for? Isn't he exempted from all Mitzvos anyways? judaism.stackexchange.com/questions/53164/…

Sep 17, 2019 at 11:53 comment added alicht @JoelK why would one be obligated to confess then? It would appear that verbally confessing is an integral part of doing teshuva

Sep 17, 2019 at 5:35 comment added Joel K Where do you see in Rambam that if one doesn’t confess he hasn’t performed teshuvah. All he says in the passage you quote is that when one does teshuvah, he is obligated to confess.
