The End Of Kabbalah’s Genesis

THE death of a trend is often heralded by its getting a mention on the six o’clock news, Noel Edmonds using its buzzwords or its name being installed as an official new word in the OED.

Kabbalah is a trend. And rumours are that it is not so trendy.

Anthea Turner never did take the string but Madonna did. Posh ‘n’ Becks did. Britney did. Hollywood actors Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore did.

But things might have changed. “Ashton and Demi used to have an impeccable attendance record,” says a source with links to the Kabbalah Centre in L.A. But now we learn that has been “months” since the two attended services or participated in the Shabbat dinner after Friday services.

“It’s just odd,” says the source with ties to the Centre, “something must be up.”

Perhaps the couple have tired of the new religion. Or just got very good at it and are now operating as secular Kabbalalites?

If they can feel guilty about it, or have a family row over dinner, Kabbalah may yet beat Scientology to achieving popular acceptance as a bona fide religion…
