The Washington Post’s “On Faith,” has posed the question, “Should religions intermarry?” and the posted responses are good food for thought.
What’s your take?
Should religions intermarry?
From the Washington Post’s On Faith section
THE QUESTION
Should religions intermarry?
Chelsea Clinton, raised Methodist, and Marc Mezvinsky, Jewish, will wed this weekend.
Statistics show that 37 percent of Americans have a spouse of a different faith.
Statistics also show that couples in interfaith marriages are “three times more likely to be divorced or separated than those who were in same-religion marriages.”
Is interfaith marriage good for American society? Is it good for religion? What is lost -and gained -when religious people intermarry?
