[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This isn't a strictly Jewish confliction, many minority religions and cultures face similar issues when grappling with assimilation into American culture. [/quote] It isn't. But the Jewish situation is different, because A. Our own core texts form the basis for Christianity, leading to a complex and conflicted relationship between Judaism and Christianity over 2000 Years (I would not advise Hindu on how to deal with adoption of say, Buddist practices) B. The very nature of Jewish tradition, which is far more hostile to overt syncretism than some other traditions are. C. Numbers. There just aren't many of us in the entire world. If there were 800 million Jews living somewhere overseas, out stance might be different. Perhaps OP has not weighed all those factors. Perhaps they have, and still want the perspectives of other minorities on this. I don't know, its up to OP to say.[/quote]
