Passover Vs. Easter
In a recent article published in the Huffington Post, interfaith blogger Susan Katz Miller describe the goal of some if the interfaith Easter services.
“The aim of our interfaith Easter service, and of our interfaith community in general, is not to create a new religion, or a confusing mash-up, or to convert anyone, or to become ‘Jews for Jesus.’ Rather, we want to provide a deeper level of religious literacy for our interfaith children, to go beyond jelly beans and chocolate matzahs, to truly wrestle with the theological consonance and dissonance inevitably represented in our families, and in our increasingly interfaith world.”
Is this how we should be educating our children? How should the Jewish Community approach interfaith families and children? Is it still OK to say a Jew should marry another Jew? Why not tell people that they should only marry for love?
Is it still OK for Jewish values to collide with the modern world?
How do you juggle the spring holiday season?
