If the Rabbis had known then what we know now, would they have made the washing of the hands with soap following a visit to the lavatory mandatory?
As is my usual wont, I merely inquire.

I think they would have assered those disgusting shisselach that sit tauntingly outside a bathroom without a drop of soap in sight.
Dear Mr. R.S.
Maybe they did?
I vaguely remember a Professor of Bacteriology stating that a good hand washing just with water following a bathroom visit removed most (> 95%?) of harmful organisms. Soap does not necessarily take care of the remaining few percent and, despite enthusiastic advertising, most likely does not do more than provide a nice "clean" smell. This might be something your readers might be interested in researching further (do I hear "wiki"?). Most importantly, he stressed a "good" hand washing - merely waving a finger or two at the running water does not suffice. Supporting germaphobes everywhere, Leo de T.
Everyone knows that gematria of klipah and gematria of bacteria are the same.
If the rabbis knew then what we knew now they would have left out some of the wackier aggadita that people take literally.
Menashe: You means kvarts.
Maybe.
Maybe indeed.
Menashe: Maybe.
LdT: Hmm, interesting.
CA: Oh yes?
Modeh: Maybe they did leave shtuff out?
what do we know now that the rabbis didnt know?
Lots.
so your saying when you know alot of things you start washing your hands with soap, it doesnt sound very logical
Of course it's logical. Once you find out that certain things are beneficial to you, you start doing them.
The name "thats what she said" keeps throwing me off.
i thought its a cool name, ill go back to normal soon
anyway the washing of hands is not for cleanliness, as you know.
sure it is, spiritual cleanliness.
