[Avodah] best v. worst;

[harveybenton at yahoo.com]

imo...
1. the Worst that can happen if someone drives on shabbas is .......being mechalel shabbas!! (mi'doiraisa).
2.
The Best that can happen if someone attends a shabbas meal (in the
short-term) is 1. making kiddush (mi'dirabannan), 2. a woman/women
lighting shabbas candles (if they get there early enuf (also
mi'dirabbonan); 3. breaking bread with family/friends and making a
bracha on the bread (midirobonnon) and; 4. benching (mi'dirabbon as to
the exact loshon...)

Imo, if we examine the best case v. the worst case of having invites over......the conclusion should be clear that it is best to avoid having another jew make an aveira (midoraisa) versus possible benefits of midorobbana mitzvas at best....
