Jewish-Christian Dialogue has flourished during the past 50 years.
The range of issues include worship, scripture, theology, anti-
Semitism, the Holocaust, Israel, social activism, and local issues
facing Jews and Christians around the world. There have been very
few conversations about the most significant threat to Jewish
survival since the Holocaust, interfaith marriage. Though the
actual rates of interfaith marriage varies greatly today, most
scholars agree that the percentage of Jews marrying non-Jews who
then do not raise children identified as Jews will greatly diminish
the Jewish community of the 21st century. An Indelicate Silence
reviews these issues for the purpose of initiating a serious
dialogue between Jews and Christian leaders about interfaith
marriage. There is a scriptural base used to help both parties
discuss the core values outside of the specific pastoral issues.
Every non-Orthodox rabbi today faces demands from within their
congregation regarding interfaith families, yet few Christian
clergy are prepared to engage in a dialogue. Are Christians
interested in the survival of Jews and Judaism? Are Jews willing to
share their fears of the future?
