Madonna The Mystic
Michael Jackson’s former pal Rabbi Shmuley Boteach of Jewsweek writes in an editorial: “So Madonna has written a children’s book, The English Roses, which is based on the Kabbalah and features as its lead character a girl named Binah. Should the Jewish community be proud? After all, here we are, a little backwater religion, with one of the world’s most famous faces highlighting our ancient mystical tradition. Should we not embrace her as our savior and princess, the woman who renounced Catholicism in favor of Judaism? The woman who helped make Judaism sexy? No. And here’s why. The fact that Judaism is becoming increasingly dependent on depraved pop cultural icons to make it appeal to the masses is a sign of desperation rather than achievement, failure rather than success.” The full story at shmuley.com has since been removed.

I agree. Madonna has given Judaism a bad name.
Rabbi Shmuley Boteach certainly is a lot better a Jew than Madonna, just check out his bushy beard and his scrutinizing eyes at any of the sheep that even dare to go astray. for a man who is so quick to list out the failures of Catholicism and Islam, and for a man who took two years to decide if a person is worthy for a platonic relationship and for a man, with such X-ray eyes that could conclude that a sinner like Madonna could not possible deserve Judaism, maybe this is exactly why Mr, Rabbi, Your worship, Rabbi Shmuley Boteach such a great Jew? But then again .. according to this great Jew, Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, it could take a mere mortal, Madonna who according to him, with no talent, could make Zohar — “the book of luminosity” — and made it dark. And according to Mr. rabbi, your worship, your extreme holiness, that what we did during our youth will ALWAYS define what we are no matter how much we have changed.. Madonna did “sex” and Madonna kissed “Britney and Christina” but Madonna never told anyone that they will make bad Jews or Christians..Mr. rabbi, your worship, your extreme holiness, our infallible preacher… maybe Madonna should have stuck with Hinduism which held some fascination for her during her “ray of light” years because in Hinduism there’s always room for one more soul trying to find God.
