The Magical Ingredient

[debka_notion]

I think I've found the magical ingredient for generating tons of comments on LJ, at least among my friend- circle, and it is very simple-

Talk about head-covering and/or ritual-wear and gender.

I guess people with those interests tend to congregate.

I think other halakhic concerns might get close- so, here's one I need to do some research into- what has the status of a shoe, and the acceptability going barefoot during (davening on) Yom Kippur.

the acceptability going barefoot during (davening on) Yom Kippur.

What's the problem with that? The mishno forbids נעילת הסנדל. The gemoro presents the whole "non-leather shoes" thing as a loophole that Rovo used to use so that he wouldn't have to hurt his feet. If anything, going barefoot should be much better.
