[Desperado]

[MrPing1000]

Richard Gere needs to kick the crap outta all these Kabbalahbabbabaabaa people, how can they be convinced that giving the church 20% of your income is a good idea?

 

[sefskillz]

its 10% isn't it?

 

[sprsk]

its 10% isn't it?

There are churches that make you give them a % of your income, theres one in memphis that requests 20%.

 

[Drinky Crow]

It's called tithing, and many churches require it. Most at least strongly encourage it.

Isn't he too busy with his pet gerbil?

It's been ages since i've been to church, but last few i went to never required it, only asked for those who could to give.

 

[Star Power]

It's more of a Jewish tradition.

 

[belgurdo]

They do the tithing thing in baptist churches too

 

[DonasaurusRex]

[otheranthony-ns]

this could work.

 

[DonasaurusRex]

church of sea lab the five jews will deystroy you if you dont pay your 70% to them....man that episode was pushing it....

 

[mjq jazz bar]

The funny thing about this so-called "Jewish" religion Madonna and Britney Spears are practicing is that the way they're practicing it is not acknowledged by any learned or real Jew. Basically, they're in on a trend started for and by rich people.

 

[Chopin Trusty Balls]

This Kaballah shit is getting out of hand,i have seen old people talking to tomatoes and a pile of bolts because they were supposedly alive too,this is too fucking stupid.


Not to mention all Jewish Organisation distance themselfes from those Kabalah thiefs

 

[ConfusingJazz]

Can anybody fully explain this Kaballah crap and why its sucking in half of hollywood? And is it violent enought that there will be a religious holy war in Hollywood where the Scientologist and Kaballah factions take up arms to fight for the right to get money from celebrities?

 

[bishoptl]

we can only hope there are numerous casualties in such a holy conflict

It's just a trendy bullshit thing based on ancient Jewish mysticism.

 

[El Papa]

Kabbalah is basically ancient Jewish witchcraft/mysticism.

With all due respect Papa, I think I like this explination.

 

[El Papa]

Of course what this bullshit Britney and the rest of Hollywood is involved in is a watered-down, trendy, crap faux-religion. Real Kabbalah, however, is a form of ancient jewish witchcraft.

[Bizarro Sun Yat-sen]

Yeah, this particular version of Kabbalah is just a Hollywood bastardization of an already dubious (but intellectually fascinating at least) ancient esoteric tradition. By the way, elements of Kabbalah have been used in a lot of recent books, movies, TV shows and video games like Foucault's Pendulum, Pi, Evangelion, Xenogears, etc. to lend a sense of occult mystery to the story.

 

[Ripclawe]

officially a fad.

WTF!? $25 for a piece of red string? What the fuck is up with Hollywood are their wonky ass religions?

 

[Mermandala]

Have you heard of that weird cult out of Japan that requires a certain amount of income out of it's devotees? All they get is like some plastic crap and instructions printed in little manuals on how to worship them through the television. Starts with a "N".

But the kABBAlah should have been more popular in the 70's so it could have enticed Swedish super-group ABBA to don the red string for a wedding like no other.

Fuck you, now i have dancing queen stuck in my head, that's a catchy fucking song.

 

[Mermandala]

That my friend, is the power of the kABBAlah-lah-lah.

I think there's a good chance the world would become a better place if such a conflict ever took place. I bet John Travolta becomes a tiger when he hears of Kabbala cutting into Master Hubbard's revenues.

I wonder how anyone can follow Scientology. I remember reading that Hubbard said, before he created Scientology, that the easiest way to get rich was to create a religion. And then a couple of years later, he did!

 

[Ripclawe]

Hey look yet another Kabbalah marriage(maybe) with Ashton and Demi.. Wheeeeeee

[Chopin Trusty Balls]

Some should stop these Kabalah guys before there is a Celebrity Waco or 2 Wacos fighting each other

 

[ConfusingJazz]

In a world...

where fake religions pop up and take half of Beverly Hills, where Hollywood boulevard becomes a warzone with roving members of new age fundamentalists, you have to learn how to manipulate celebrities and get the most money possible. This summer, prepare for...

Hey, Christianity started out the same way 2000 years ago. If it wasn't for wealthy patrician Romans trying out the latest exotic religious fad from the Middle East, Christianity may have died out by now. Or at least not be the world's largest religion. The learned Jews weren't too fond of it, either.

Our ancestors in a thousand years could be seriously devoted to this Kaballah bullshit.

 

[Hournda]

Kabbalah isn't even a religion. It's supposed to be the "inner mystical teachings" of the torah and you can't practice "kabbalah" without first practicing regular Judaism. What Britney, Madonna, et. al. are doing is just a bunch of hokey nonsense. If they really wanted to do kaballah they should convert to Judaism.

IAWTP. Christianity was 2000 years ago, nothing more than a sect.

That would be great, and instead of calling you a priest or something like that, it would be Don Anthony.


But seriously, why bother? The government already does that.
