After helping degenerate America, the frumpy, now English mummsy, is warning us, all will go to hell, if we don't change our wicked ways, including that most 'Priests Are Gay.'

[Topiary Lady]

Hideous whore/proper English manor lady, is now going to instruct us on how to behave? How quaint.

1. When grabbing ones crotch in public, be sure to extend your pinky.

2. Before publicly sharing a lesbian kiss, be sure to use breath spray for that extra Binaca Blast.

3. While peddaling your new childrens book, be sure to wear an ugly flower dress and sit with your knees together to hide your crotchless, metal studded, leather underwear.

I wish I would have said that, T.L.. :icon_lol:

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! I saw that also on Drudge and my mouth just dropped open in disbelief. If she turned from her ways, great! But practicing Hebrew mysticism is far from turning from wicked ways.

[Topiary Lady]

Well Bumblebee, you're more than welcome to add to the Madonna Rules Of Charm list.

I'm glad that piece of trash moved to England. She's surely got the teeth for it.

To truly learn Kabala, you have to learn the Hebrew religion, and you have to learn the Torah by heart.
The Kabala that Hollywood stars are all practicing is bogus, and those Rabbi's that are teaching it, are nothing but charlatans. They are making themselves rich with all these stupid pin heads.

[Schmitty27]

How soon she forgets that she was in a particular music video with burning crosses. Plus she was sponsoring Pepsi with that video. Nothing makes me want to reach for a great tasting Pepsi more than the thought of burning crosses. Ahhhh, refreshing.

I thought everyone in Hollywood practiced Scientology? Guess that's outta style now.

[Bumblebee]

Kabala doesn't believe in a hell.
To tell you the truth, FT, I don't know about that. It's a religion that slipped from Blibical understanding of reality to an occult, because it seemed more pleasurable and immediate. It's so bizzare and absurd. I think there are two or three interpretations, but one Rabbi once told me that they have to study the Torah. The Rabbi's who are teaching these movie stars are only teaching them the mystical and magic of the religion. It's the biggest trend in Hollywood right now. They all wear these little red bracelets made of thread, which they charge $29.00. They sell them all kinds of cheap items, all over prized. Madonna, Drew Barrymore, Demi Moore and Ashton Kuchner and many more super stars are among them.

[erichthewebguy]

... Drew Barrymore ...
I wanna cry... I've always had the hugest crush on Drew Barrymore! Stupid Drew!

But like I said, whatever happened to Scientology? Seems like anyone who was anyone in Hollywood was into Scientology as recently as a year ago (as far as I can remember).

[erichthewebguy]

I was just talking to the wife, and she was saying the same thing (she is into the whole Hollywood scene) and she said the exact same thing... To paraphrase: "Kabala is the latest thing in Hollywood... and a lot of Jewish people are rightfully upset by this. They have no right to claim to know anything about it. Those stupid bracelets are lame, and they are all posers."

And I am inclined to agree.

Oh, sorry Erich. There are a few I know of that are Scientologist, like John Travolta, Lisa Marie Presley, and of course Tom Cruise. I'm sure there are a lot more of them, But it's the Kabala that's all the craze in Hollywood.
I just remembered that Whoopi Goldberg, Roseanne Barr, Gweneth Paltrow, Cameron Diaz, all go to Kabala, the list is long.
Sorry I disillusioned you about pretty Drew, but they're all nuts in Hollywood.
I see them all around here where I live. They go around with no make-up, wearing thong slippers and with their hair all messy. I've never seen your pretty Drew, though.

lol, sorry... I should have made it known that I was being sarcastic... Seriously, I meant to add something about "just kidding" or some such thing... My bad. Anyway, it always seems like it's one thing after another with these people. Scientology, kabala, etc. I am halfway expecting the Flying Spaghetti Monster (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_Spaghetti_Monster) to emerge as the next great Hollywood religion.

[IHL]

My question is a sincere "Who cares?" Really. Why does anyone care what Madonna says? Why do these people continue to make headlines? I just don't get it.

There are things about Madonna I like. I like that she speaks her mind and there was a time when she was a great entertainer. She has some good songs and can be fun to watch on a video. Ok, fine. But let's face it. She is no moral leader. She certainly isn't a mental giant and she is no one to talk about moral decay. So she can sing and write songs. What does that have to do with any of what she is saying?

It's just like the press that B.S. gets for her feelings on global warming and hurricanes. Why is it, that people that can sing and entertain are elevated to the position of weather experts and moral compasses? I don't get it.

Ignore them. They will go away.

[RightisRightLeftisWrong]

Coudn't agree with you more IHL. Hollywood has compeletly gone to shit.

[Dagummit]

Nah, Tom Cruise and that gal he knocked up are stirring up the talks of a silent birth (a practice of scientology). You want to talk about weird? The delivering mother can't talk, can't scream, and after the baby is born, no one can say anything around him/ her for the first seven days of his/ her life. Why you ask? Because that freak who invented this religion (Hubbard) states that the first sounds the baby hears will graph the childs personality for the rest of it's life. So bad screams will result in a bad person. Talk about lunacy?

Same feeling for Demi Moore...

[Dagummit]

Kabbalah is a side religion to the Jewish faith, just like Baptist and Lutherian is a side of the Christian faith.

What are you talking about? Baptists and Lutherans are not a side religion of the Christian faith, they are denominations of the Christian religion. Christianity is believing that Jesus Christ (the historical Jesus of Nazareth) is the Lord God who died on the cross for our sins and who has physically risen from the grave to save us. Both Baptists and Lutherans believe this, the difference is that we practice this belief in slight variances (such as submerged baptisms, etc.) But the meaning and message are the same.

Jews and those who practice Kaballah believe in two totally different things. Kaballah started out as a renegade practice for Jews who fell from Judaism. They believe in this "evil eye" character, which is why they wear red braclets, and other ridiculous crap like that.

[shotdrops286]

The reason so many people might think that Kaballah is a shadowy cult that demands secrecy and only cares about money is because they're a shadowy cult that demands secrecy and only cares about money.

God dammit, MC. I get all settled down for vacation and you go and ask fool questions!
Madonna was a singer (you know those cone-shaped bras you see sometimes, thats her). She was in a few movies, can't remember which ones, but they all sucked. that much I remember.
She's been envolved in a lot of scandels and what nto throughout her career, and hardly one to be philosophizing about the ultimate fate of humanity.
Of course she has an odd view of the world, she's spent most of her life either on drugs, having sex, or making shity music (sometimes all three simultaneously). Funny how disattached people get from the world when they succeed.
However, just because its Madonna saying it doesn't necessarily mean its not a valid point. Instead of bashing Madonna (like she needs anymore bashing), discuss her point.
I'll leave you all with that thought.
And no more fool questions MC!

Here you go MC, a Madonna bio. (http://launch.yahoo.com/ar-256352-bio--Madonna)

[Dagummit]

And the Jews started the "evil eye" and wore red on Saturdays so the "evil eye" couldn't find them. Kabbalah is to Jewish tradition as Baptist is to Christianity

Show me where Jews (Judaism) started the evil eye... I have never heard of that and have studied this topic quite intensely.

[RightisRightLeftisWrong]

anyone wanna tell me who she is?

Jeeze MC do you live under a rock how can you not know who Madonna is?

Well I guess its a good thing your probably better off not knowning who she is.

[FKLBRLS]

I care more about the stuff I leave in the toilet that the latest singer.
You're my hero MC! Hollywood is immoral crap now. I used to be like you, I didn't follow or care about pop culture. Then I slowly got aquainted with it. But I still don't read things like PEOPLE and the like. I really don't care.

Well it looks like Madonna's coming out to get her annual 15 seconds again. She sounds more like a Bhuddist monk, denouncing material posessions. In case anyone is actually worried by her statements: you will not go to hell for having or liking material posessions. Although you cannot let them control your life completely so that you push God and Jesus aside. But by all means, make a good living, get a good job, make money. Just don't be Jewish about it and make it the #1 most important thing in your life. But you will not go to hell for it, if you trust in Jesus He will forgive you.

Lastly:
Kaballah is NOT Judaism
Scientology is NOT a religion, it is a cult. It was designed as a cult. It was L. Ron Hubbard's belief that the way to get rich is by forming a cult. He is quoted as saying such. He got this idea from his friend, Alexis Crowley, who had started a satanic cult in Britain. DON'T LET ME HEAR ANYONE REFERRING TO SCIENTOLOGY AS A RELIGION!!! EVER!!!

Hollywood actors are really odd about religion. They go from religion from religion; cult to cult like it's some kind of game. They choose something that they want to hear, what "enhances their spirituality". But that is a very humanistic ideal that is permeating our society WAY too much. Life is not suppoesd to be about just you, and what YOU can get out of religion, it is about putting your faith in Jesus Christ and knowing of His grace. My pastor brought up a really good point: "If heaven and hell had nothing to do with what you have been taught, and there was no guarantee of going to either, would you still worship the Lord?" The right answer should be Yes.

[Topiary Lady]

Madonna is to music, what Salvador Dali was to art. Neither of them excelled in any great artistic talent. I'll give both of them credit for being masters of publicity, but that's about all.

It's a shame how classless Hollywood types have become. I guess I'm old because I can still remember a time when you could be a fan of a big name celebrity and actually feel proud to admit it. I went to my first ever political rally during the Ford/Dole campaign. The great John Wayne was there as a guest speaker and he evoked such a wonderful feeling of patriotism. Here was this bigger than life character standing on the stage in front of us, telling of his love for America, his love for our flag and what it represents. No ego, no hunger for applause, just a man, an American, one of us.

Part of me just wants Madonna to shut her trampy trench mouth and just disappear. The other part of me wants her to stick around and make an idiot of herself prancing around a stage in a g-string when she's 60. Need I mention the name Cher? You know me, I do enjoy a good laugh.

P.S.
OMG! They sell those silly thread bracelets for that much? I gotta get me some thread.
