Silvester's coming

Although police took a report, Halloran says he does not think the cemetery was targeted because it is for Jewish people.

Скажите, а есть Игрот Моше в електронном виде? Хочется полную цитату:

Один из величайших hалахических авторитетов второй половины 20--ого века гаон р.Моше Файнштейн , не усмотрел основания запретить праздновать "гражданские" праздники , Новый год и День благодарения (см. Игрот Моше" Э-hа-Э 2:13). В принципе. Но оговорился, что человеку набожному не следует полагаться на это "незапрещение".

Question:
Is it wrong for a Jew to take a part-time job in a department store dressing up as Santa Claus?

Answer:
<...>
Jewish law states that a person should not behave in the ways of idol worshipers[1]. Nor is one allowed to dress in a garment that is unique to them[2]. There is an opinion, however, that permits wearing their garments, as long as a part of the garb is missing. Therefore, if you were to wear the Santa Claus suit with a shtreimmel and not Santa’s funny red hat, that might be a way of taking the job and still remain within the parameters of Jewish law[3].
