How do Humanistic Jews view Intermarriage?
Humanistic Judaism is the only Jewish movement that actively welcomes (and performs) intercultural marriage. We believe that sound relationships have their basis in mutual love and respect, not cultural similarity. We believe that multicultural families should be welcome to actively participate in all aspects of Jewish life. We recognize and treasure those things that are unique to the Jewish experience and to our culture, but because we have a Humanistic philosophy, we see ourselves as one part of the human family, not set above or chosen to be superior to other people.
