The woman whose given name is in honor of the Mother of God (Madonna) is reportedly about to renounce the heretical Jewish mystic school of thought known as Kabbalah. See here. She is so very typical of postmodern humanity. Try an exotic religion. Go whole hog even. But abandon it when it gets boring, loses it sexiness, or causes inconveniences. Actually, I am glad that she is ditching Kabbalah. It's just that we so often see the same mentality in the Church. "I'm a disciple of Jesus until it interferes in my human relationships." Or "I'm a Christian until it actually makes demands on how I raise my kids." Or "I will follow Christ as long as all my felt-needs are getting scratched."

Well, that settles it. If Madonna and Britney Spears are both leaving, the tide is going to turn soon. You'd best do like me and sell all your Kabbalah stock.
What to invest in next? Buddhism? Episcopalianism? Hindooism should be broad enough--thousands of gods, root for your favorite.
