[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The title of your post is very interesting and I'm surprised no one has mentioned it.  You say "MY Jewish kids" as opposed to "our Jewish kids."   It makes me think you consider these kids yours and 100 Jewish and don't seem to understand they also come from your husband and his Christian family.  I think the title of the post says a lot about your attitude and how you approach the mixed marriage.  [/quote]
Once again, OP's family is Jewish. There is no Christianity in the home. Some families practice and celebrate multiple religions but OP's family does not. There is no obligation to allow extended family to expose these Jewish children to a camp where there will certainly be daily prayers to Jesus. This is considered very offensive to Jewish families because of the very long history of Jews being forced to practice other religions.[/quote]

its also considered very much against their religion- the most important component of the Jewish religion is the allegiance to the ONE God ,and praying to anyone other than the God of Abraham is pretty much the worst thing you can do. And while Christian people think that praying to the Lord jesus Christ is the same b/c of the trinity and all that, observant Jews don't think so highly of Jesus and don't believe in the concept of 3=1, 1=3 so its all good we worship the same deity. B/c- what the hell- its anonymous: news flash only Christians think that their religion is monotheistic, strictly speaking its polytheistic, that is breaking the 1st commandment! I mean i'm not Jewish but for Muslims- Jewish religious stuff is ok,i know its not vice versa, b/c the Oneness of God is the most important belief of all - actually i'd like invite from the Jewish poster- is that concept of noon you CANNOT pray in the name of x,y,z human being a no go for you as well? I've always wondered.
