Question: I was travelling through a city and went to a local Bet Knesset to say Mincha. When I came to the Bet Knesset saw there were many pictures of Rabbanim on the wall and one directly in front of me. Was I allowed to say Mincha there?  

Question: Hello to the Rabbi, A few years ago, I planted a passionfruit vine in my garden. It was very beautiful at first but now it’s a different story. It spread all over my yard covering other plants and fences etc. It has grown completely out of control. I planted  to make the fence look nice and I never ate the fruit, is it permitted to uproot the vine?  

Question: I have a serious operation scheduled right before Rosh Chodesh Nissan and it might take me weeks to recover. During that time won’t be able to get out of bed for the whole month of Nissan at least. Can I say the Bracha on the trees just before Nissan? Or maybe can I say it right after Nissan when I can get out of the house?  

Question: I have a hard time unfortunately getting to Shacharit on time in the morning. On my way to Shacharit I say Birchot Hashachar. First is that OK? As I am running sometimes though, I think I see dog feces on the floor as I pass. Should I stop saying the bracha in that case?  

 I work in a Nursery School and in that Nursery School we have a garden. On last Tu BeShevat we planted an apple tree there. At the end of the year planted tomatoes. I just realized is there a problem of Kilayim (cross-breeding). If so, what should we do?

You discussed Adam and the tree of good and evil. I thought original sin was a Christian belief. I have heard other rabbis specifically denounce this belief as Christian. As HaShem told Moses that e was going to kill the Israelites, and Moses told Him to blot out his name from His book to save the Israelites. HaShem said no. He said that each man must die for his own sii. I'm paraphrasing,but that's the gist of it. There are other verses,but this is probably too long already. Thank you.
