Plus Kabbalah is very cultish and Sharon probably thinks it's ****e!

I don't think Madonna is as thorougly steeped in the study of Kabbalah as, say, Moshe Edel. But obviously it's something she thinks is interesting. I don't know whether her interest is scholarly or spiritual, or both, but it's a little odd considering Madonna has built a career & a life out of giving free rein to sexual & worldly desires, when Kabbalistic teachings urge people to a higher moral life through spirituality rather than physical desire. It's like Prince suddenly speaking out in behalf of the ascetic life of the monastery. But whatever floats Madonna's boat. A lot of Jews probably think it's also a little odd of Madonna to study Kabbalah without first studying Torah (assuming she hasn't or isn't).

I suspect she doesn't know of Torah's existence.

No way. Even Madonna must know. Or are you kidding?

I'm kidding. I'm sure she must have watched Yentl.

Or at least watched Charlton Heston & Co. march around the desert with the first ten of the 613 commandments.

I thought she got distracted focusing on the costumes in that.

Madonna is about as sincere as Stevie Nicks is selfless. I respect her for still going out there and making good music, but drop the whole serious side will ya? No one cares that you can "write a children's book", or that you sound British now. Just go into the studio, make your music, and call it a day. And lower your ticket prices for ****'s sake.
