Your assessment of Talmudic law is incorrect.
Prager does not yet practice Orthodox Judaism. As pointed out there are scriptural prohibitions, and in the Talmud and post-Talmudic code of Jewish law explicit prohibitions against gazing at anything sexually titillating or salacious. Absolutely prohibited.
He’s usually a great conservative spokesman but is way off the Jewish reservation here.
In Chassidic philosophy— the thinking-sin is worse than the actual in some ways... corrupting core soul-faculties rather than just exterior actions/limbs...
I appreciate your correction. I didn't remember any references in my cursory reading of the Babylonian Talmud, which makes me a complete non-expert 🥸 thank you again
Thank you for that post. Prager pretends to be an Orthodox Jew but in reality this is all a game for him. He’s a Reform Jew who pretends to be Orthodox. Obviously is a Republican though.
