[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm Jewish and I can't understand why this would bother you, OP. Honestly. [/quote] Why do I care? Someone put it recently in a New Yorker article about Bar Mitzvahs for Evangelical Christian teenagers like this (paraphrasing) -- there's a difference between building bridges between religions to improve cultural understanding, and building bridges so you can run across to the other side and grab goodies and run back. If it's to increase cultural understanding, great. [/quote] I don't follow the goodies-grabbing analogy. It's not like there is a limited number of seders that can be held in the world on any given night, and if the Christians take them, there won't be any left for the Jews.[/quote] My DH was raised in a conservative Jewish household that did not believe in giving gifts for Hanukkah. He thinks the reform Jews grabbed those Christian goodies and ran back to their side. [/quote]
