Actually, as a student of rabbi Lipskier I can tell you that he’s one of the only teachers we have who actually says the things we need to hear. His advice here is what’s actually good for us, and for everyone else…Sorry if can’t see this.

In reply to YOU are (pretending) to live in a box. It appears that this article hit you a little to hard because you know it's true.... Do you really think that those who don't check the news, don't get enough news to know to say tehilim?

In reply to YOU are (pretending) to live in a box.

Did you read this part of the article?

“…that we may be feeding a false sense of purpose… In most cases, they leave us feeling down, dark, anxious and depressed.”

So be honest. Are you checking the box to know whether to still say Tehillim, or for another reason?

Our glowing boxes are only good enough to send donations to you? How do you know to still stay tehillim if you are so holy as to not check the news? If your brother was about to die, wouldn’t you want to find out what happened? Are is that also just pretending to ease the burden?
Of all the issues your students face this isn’t the bone to pick.
