As some of you might have noticed, I’ve been posting quite a bit over at Beliefnet’s Idol Chatter blog. Most recently, I wondered if Kabbalah has failed the Ritchies (that’s Madonna and her husband, to those of you who didn’t know), and broke news of the new Hebrew Hammer sequel being dangled over Hollywood.

In addition to my posts, you’ll find writers of all religious persuasions and denominations blogging about that special place in the universe where pop culture and religion intersect; Idol Chatter features varied stories, from the state of the Church of Jon Stewart to Lindsay Lohan’s purported embrace of karma, and discussions of Jeremy Piven’s Star of David in those Gap ads and any imminent spiritual issues raised in or by the new television seasons crop of freshman shows.
Here’s my latest, “Spirituality and Slayage.”
