His outspokenness has earned him praise and criticism; ''Newsweek'' magazine named him one of the 50 most influential rabbis in the United States three years in a row, including sixth in 2010. He currently resides in Englewood, N.J.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Education )〕 ==Rabbinic career== In 1988, Boteach was sent at age 22 by Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson as a Chabad-Lubavitch ''shaliach'' (emissary) to Oxford, England, where he served as rabbi to Oxford's students for 11 years and during that time founded the L'Chaim Society.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://shmuley.com/sample-page-2/ )〕 Under Boteach's leadership the Oxford L'Chaim Society grew to be the second-largest student organization in Oxford's history, with a membership that included over 5,000 non-Jews. A dispute erupted when Boteach was asked to remove some non-Jewish students from the society, including future Senator Cory Booker, but refused. Later that year Boteach won the "Preacher of the Year" Award from ''The Times''. In 2008 Boteach was named ninth on ''Newsweeks list of the "Top 50 Rabbis in America", and in 2009 he was named seventh.〔 In 2010 Boteach was listed on the ''Newsweek'' list at number six.〔 Boteach has faced widespread criticism from fellow rabbis across his career, especially following the release of his book "Kosher Jesus." It was denounced as "heresy" by some rabbis. Immanuel Schochet, a Canadian rabbi, stated that the book "poses a tremendous threat to the Jewish community." Boteach also faced criticism by the Jewish community for his views on love and sex in his book "Kosher Sex: A Recipe for Passion and Intimacy," stating that lust is more important than love. He has said "lust is the pinnacle of holiness," and "if you put love and lust together, love stands no chance." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shmuley Boteach」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
