1. Isolation and ignorance leads to superstition
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, DC USA   (12.09.08)
So isolated are some of these people from the modern world that they evince the kind of superstition one expects from primitive tribesmen. Perhaps Trachtenberg's "Jewish Magic and Superstition" is due for an update. It's to avoid this kind of nonsense the sages pushed for Torah AND "derekh eretz".
2. Stupidity of article
Sam ,   NY   (12.09.08)
The article is stupid. Obviously, people were concerned about improper use of the voices of dead people, a type of sacrilege. But the article just HAD to make it appear that the religious, once more, were, well, primitive. Why is it that such anti-religioius rhetoric has to accompany every YNet story on religious Jews?
3. JESUSALEN
cristian ,   bs as arg   (12.09.08)
when JESUSALEN returns tzion the spirits of the children of Yisrael are broken and they hear the praises of the angels and they can celebrate,they all raise their voices in praise and song before jesus,blessed be he, and jesus,blessed be he,arouse the spirits of Yisrael then they hear the praises of the angels,as their spirits remain within them and do not fly from them,all the roads exud scents of healing which enters their bodies,and they are healed,from the sound of the praises that they hear,they rejoice and repose and purify their spirits for the eternity.
4. How intresting
David ,   USA   (12.09.08)
This articale is a disgrace! It amkes light of rasing the dead. For shame!
5. Haredim fear seance
Rita ,   Tel Aviv   (12.10.08)
This just show how ignorant Haredim are. Seances, what world do they live in? Yet we keep funding their schools, and their families while they study superstitions.
6. Seance Chazzonus???
Elozor ,   Manchester, England   (12.10.08)
I doubt the veracity of this story. I smell a publicity stunt by the P.R. agents to get the recordings talked about and bought. Quite a clever and ingenious ploy!
7. Yet more proof
Liz   (12.10.08)
that some of these people live in the middle ages. Maybe if they learned something other than torah in their schools they might know what technology is....
8. RITA IF YOU ASKED A TORAH RABBI, HE WOULD EXPLAIN,,
IGNORANT OR STUPID ,   ..............DACON9   (12.11.08)
9. Seance?
Ben ,   Monroe USA   (12.11.08)
Once again the herediim prove to all the lack of validity in their educational system. Their obvious lack of knowledge re the growth of technology and it's uses becomes apparent in their inane questions. What they learn, rather what they lack is most enlightening. Yet they seem to have the ability to express their cynicism of the 21st century while trying to return to what they define as biblical ways. There seems to no end for some to exist in vacuum of their own causing.
10. The record label name was suspicious too
Ran   (12.13.08)
"Witch of Endor Media"
11. pos
Moriah ,   sacramento, ca   (12.15.08)
