Individual Postings 1st appeared(& were copied in html form) on the Email List Mail JewishFrom: Russell Hendel <rhendel@mcs.drexel.edu> Date: Sun, 15 Aug 1999 23:08:40 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Breaking a Kashruth Contract with a Strip Bar The Rambam is clear and unequivocal:(Sales 18:3) >>You don't mix non-schechted meat with schechted meat in a sale >>to a non-jew EVEN THOUGH you know that non-schechted and schechted >>meat have the same status to him Again, as I have already done several times, we must distinguish between the question of "whether we should do business with strip bars" (of course not) and the question of "whether we should break a contract with them". My focus in these postings is that just as Kashruth is part of Judaism so is monetary law and it is a very serious prohibition to break a contract Russell Hendel; Phd ASA RJHendel@Juno.Com ModeratoR Rashi Is Simple http://www.shamash.org/rashi/
