Sweatin' Like a Madonna in Church

Are Kabbalah red string bracelets passé? Because Esther Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone Penn Ritchie stepped her lapsed Catholic self back inside a church in Rome recently. What's Rabbi Berg gonna say about this on Shabbas?

"Look Rocco and Lola, remember when Mommy was up on the cross like that man?"

61. look at the people behind her...they are all text messaging their friends/family probably to tell them that they are seeing Madonna in person, etc...I'll be text messaging God to tell him to find a way to get that hypocrite out of there

65. American tourists go in to churches in Rome in droves, and don't cover their heads or dress properly. Why is it such a surprise when Madonna does it? American tourists also go in to temples in southeast asia, ignore the signs posted saying one must be dressed properly and cannot take pictures, then proceed to actually shout to one another, eat, curse, take photos, touch the religious statues, etc. Americans being rude and disrespectful abroad? Ooooh, what a shocker.

66. 24. What a hypocrite. She bashes the Pope and then goes to Church.

SoCal: We Catholics, by the thousands, have issues with the Pope yet still
go to church every week. The pope is not our God, despite the common
misconception.

67. To all you supposed Christians:

Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Matthew 7:1-3

68. I don't quite understand the whole Catholic thing. Kabbalah Centre teaches many fundamentals of the Jewish religion. The Kabbalah Centre is about spirituality and astrological signs. Don't quite get the astrological signs based on a lunar calendar. However, I think the Kabbalah Centre teaches skewed Jewish ideology. Real Kabbalah is taught by wise rabbis to religious men over 40.

69. I guess they waived the dress code for the other Madonna and her kids. The churches in Italy, especially Rome, enforce a strict dress code to all tourists, Americans included. Rocco and Lourdes would never have gotten into St. Peter's or most any other church in Italy dressed like that. Goes to show money talks, even (especially?) in the Church. Can't bash Americans in general on this one. Isn't Madonna English now anyway? Guy Ritchie and Rocco are.

The paparazzi are intrusive and disrespectful, no matter how you put it.

70. Sorry for some who are not fans of Madonna, but Lourdes nick name is Lola. Has been since her birth. As for the picture itself. So what?! Madonna's in a catholic church. She like many Catholics have problems with that religion and have to seek other ways to find spiritual fulfillment.She has always done so since the birth of her daughter. Besides, Madonna has always been a lover of beautiful architecture. And Rome has some of the most beautiful around.

71. 17. What, you guys have never heard of jesuit priests?? Kaballah and Roman Cathlocism go hand in hand, in that they both practice the black arts under the guise of "spirituality". Look it up, it's witchcraft, but they won't tell you that. Kaballah takes holy texts from ALL the major organized religions, and turns them into spells. And yes, they even do it with The Torah and Holy Bible. Are all Americans as clueless as TMZ readers?? Hmmmm... for your sakes, I hope not! Go search this stuff out, she may as well be called a witch, there is so little difference between kaballah and witchcraft. Peace Out!

Uh yes you are correct on what she believes and has initiated a lot of stars into Kabbalah. Im thinking that stuff messed Britney up big time, mentally. Do a search on cults and you find Kabbalah there. It is not the same as Orthodox Jewry. It would be like christians messing around with voodoo. She did a great job brainwashing A-Rod ( we are soulmates).
Other than being ugly on the outside she is on the inside as well. Being used as a puppet she has brought forth a lot of junk through her music./porn and lifestyles.
