>This may be a sensitive question, but how many years ago was that? :o) I only ask because I think a lot has changed regarding attitudes on mixed marriages (mixed religion as well as race) during the past 20 years. Maybe not with everyone, but with a large portion of the population. Of course there are always those who fall within the 'extreme' categories...

I don't think it has changed this much for Jewish families, especially for religious Jews.

Did you see "Fiddler on the Roof"?
