Don't be caught with your pants down. Maybe he can ride at the BACk of the bus now?

No mention of the marital status of this horny, upstanding cantor. Actually we need not know anything about it as its all his private business. But, it does show they are human, these Haridim. If only they'd stop trying to force us to live our lives they way they think we should.

I thought the religious Haredim didnt do such dirty things as exploiting and making sex movies. The religious seem to be obsessed with sex,sex,sex. Thats why the lady had to sit in back of the bus, because they were horny like dogs. I dont trust the religious groups one bit. Parasites.

Being taped makes his defense a bust.

holier than thou but in reality a bunch of two-timing little sinners. you disgust me doselech.

Sinners, Thieves, Liars, Trouble Makers. The frum come in 100 flavors. They pick and choose which laws to follow and which not. Its a joke. Thats why they are despised in Israel and around the world. You make your bed, you sleep in it.

happen anywhere . For some people everything is "permitted" to obtain a favor or a place . But they forget that the same tactic can be used against them .

What idiots you are to generalize about a whole community on the acts of one person. You are both obviously very disturbed people and I suggest some intense therapy. Not to mention the seedy feeling that you somehow got off on this articel.

As an ex-Orthodox I can only say that these so-called hypocritical "religious" people should never more dare to criticize those who are less frum than themselves. Religiousity and spirituality are two distinct issues although the first one can serve un to certain grade the second one, which is obviously superior. The Orthodox rabbis, their institutions and followers know only how to bash the non-Orthodox Jews and their movements but their unworthy derech eretz betrays their attempts of holiness. Look at the morality of the money-greed Orthodox political movements who try to be holier than their secular counterparts failing miserabily. If this is what happens in the Jewish religious world nobody should ask why the qassams fall or Yeshiva students get killed!

they asked him to leave his position when they found out about his immoral behavior. He refused. So they proved he was acting immorally. It was a bit shady, and the women acted immorally as well. And they probably shouldn't have done it. But bottom line is that cantors should be busy screwing around.He should have gotten the sack.

I am always amazed at Ultra-Frum rabbis' turning a blind eye to this type of corruption. A woman wears a red coat? Ban her from the community. A rabbi likes girls (or more often, boys) and nothing happens. This is why we are in Galus.

First of all...the reporter should proofread his headline and content. There was an infamous occurrence, years back, here in SA. A cantor was screwing around with quite a few of the female congregation. He got found out and was fired. He then proceeded to run off with a much younger partner, leaving his wife and kids behind. Lovely behaviour from a 'man of God.' It's a sadness that people have pay for their religious needs. Rabbis, cantors, etc, are able to have their 10 kids, because they are fed by the gullible sheep! Kosher food prices are an absolute ripoff...but, they have to be, so as to support the legions of parasites as well. Bible punching is the best money spinning industry in the world...and the gullible sheeple allow it!

They accused him . Before telling "they found out" , try to read correctly . Maybe they were right , but do you know it ?. Don't forget what is written : they wanted to replace him with a cantor they knew [ a good friend ? ]

If I were a betting person, I would say this is more likely to be either reform, conservative, or some other "Jewish lite" synagogue. Why? 1. Chareidi synagogues in Israel don't normally have professional cantors 2. Neither do they have large donors.

Don't they exist for you ?

you believe everything you read here on ynet? I had a type o i meant to say cantors shouldn't be screwing around and it is obvious to me that when the cantor was asked at first to resign, that they knew about his behaviors! that is why they used the bait, becuase they knew he would bite. I know you hate haredim, but be realistic. If they claim they seek holiness, why would you try and defend a adulterer who is in that position? My reading skills are just fine, and it is clear to me that those that asked him to resign already knew beforehand that he was a cheater read "extramarital affairs" also they gave him the chance and even warned him before their little sting operation the guy was obviously a freaking idiot! thinking with the wrong head

what fun the writer would have, 'The Rabbi and The Hooker,'or, "the non religious affiliation of a Rabbi and a maiden." What an idiot this rabbi was, so anxious to remove his clothes, and dignity.( after one meeting?) Rabbis are just men it seems, not morally superior to any other male who seeks sex outside of marriage. Recently, "How To Catch A Predator" a Rabbi was caught in a sex sting. He was chatting with a boy,( he thought) and ended up doing hard time as the judge was annoyed with his hyprocricy. He lost everything due to an illness called pedophilia. There is no cure.

They knew ? how do you know that ? they ACCUSED him , that does'nt mean that he is guilty . They warned him : [ not their words ] if you don't leave this place for our friend , we will have you on your private life . Is'nt this a kind of extortion ? It's going on this way , anywhere [ look at my first tb ] What have my ideas about the charidim to do with this ? i can say to you : jacobus , this is not your business , you are'nt Jewish .

when the hareidi stop generalizing about up secular, we will stop generalizing about their community. It goes both ways. Except when was the last time us seculars founded a religion based on intolerance and masked it in "holiness?"

So the cantor sang a different tune for a few hours. He's not the Pope, he's just an average guy who fell for a pretty woman. His weakness can be understood. The plot to remove him is what's sickening. Reminds me of the many orthodox diamond merchants in NYC that were caught on 60 Minutes selling diamonds at inflated ratings- and one that swapped a customer's $25,000 stone for a $5,000 stone when it was brought in for a cleaning. Fire the cantor for not being able to 'keep it in his pants.' But do not hire the gang's choice either. The orthodox claim to piety is always suspect. The bus driver who does his job, feeds his family, and loves his wife and children, is more so in my book.

Nobody holds it in this drama. Very sad to see the cantor's life torn apart like this. Everyone loses in some way, even the congregation. I feel bad for all of them, even the ones who entrapped the cantor. What kind of miserable people the entrappers must be. Imagine doing this to someone over a job?! May G-d have mercy on all of them. They all sure need it.

Who does he think he is....a Catholic priest ?

it depends about the morals first and the law second as in a mole or supermarket there is camera but this camera is to watch all and all the people intering the mole know about it but i think if they not knowing about it most of the people have morals will not stole but when they know about it no one want to steal the same is the working as camera these contor do their job about morals but they must not be the most moral people

SOOOOOOOOOO typical!

But would you still be laughing if you found out it was your wife he was with.

I care because this Cantor is doing something behind his wife's back. And may be he is doing it to my wife or yours behind my back. Forget about being Haredi we are talking about being faithful, faithful to ones marriage whether your haredi, secular, Jew or Christain.

Wow talk about generalizing. You are truly enlightened... NOT. You gave us the reasons behind Jewhatred..the behaviour of haredim. Right..well keep your retarded opinions to yourself. Crybaby!
