Getting to know us
Christian Century, March 11, 2008
GETTING TO KNOW US: For 16 years the Archdiocese of Boston and the Anti-Defamation League have cosponsored New Directions, a program that trains Catholic school and religious education teachers about Judaism, with the hope of eliminating Christian anti-Semitism. But now the tables are being turned: Jewish day school and Hebrew school teachers in eastern Massachusetts are learning about Christianity.
This interest is due to increased intermarriage between Jews and Christians and the fact that many of these teachers have students with a Christian parent or other Christian relatives. The Jewish educators admit that most of what has been included in their curricula heretofore has been negative--the Crusades and the Holocaust--and that many of their teachers are quite ignorant about Christian faith (Boston Globe, February 11).
