I just would like to say that the Kabbala that is being referred to here is a sect IMHO, based in NYC with branches in L.A., Paris, etc. I know because my sister has been a member for the past 12 years or so, and when she went to NYC last september for the jewish new year, Madonna was an attendee. That being said, one should not confuse this sect, which is in no way recognized by orthodox Jews, and the Kaballah. The over-simplification of the kaballah concepts by this sect is typical of members making such dumb statements on Larry King or elsewhere. Laurent
