More than half of all Jews married in U.S. since 1990 have wed people who aren’t Jewish. Nearly 480,000 American children under the age of ten have one Jewish and one non-Jewish parent. And,if a survey compiled by researchers at the University of California at Los Angeles is any indication,it’s almost certain that most of these children will not identify themselves as "Jewish" when they get older.
That survey asked college freshmen,who are usually around age 18,about their own and their parents’ religious identities. Ninety-three percent of those with two Jewish parents said they thought of themselves as Jewish. But when the father wasn’t Jewish,the number dropped to 38 percent,and when the mother wasn’t Jew,just 15 percent of the students said they were Jewish,too.
"I think what was surprising was just how low the Jewish identification was in these mixed marriage families." Linda Sax is a professor of education at UCLA. She directed the survey which was conducted over the course of more than a decade and wasn’t actually about religious identity specifically. But Professor Sax says the answers to questions about religion were particularly striking,and deserve a more detailed study. She says it’s obvious that interfaith marriage works against the development of Jewish identity among children,but says it’s not clear at this point why that’s the case. "This new study is necessary to get more in-depth about their feelings about their religion. That’s something that the study that I completed was not able to do. We didn’t have information on how they feel about their religion,whether they have any concern about their issues of identification,how comfortable they feel about their lifelong goals.I think the new study’s going to cover some of that," she says.
Jay Rubin is executive director of Hillel.a national organization that works with Jewish college students. Mr. Rubin says Judaism is more than a religion,it’s an experience. And with that in mind.Hillei has commissioned a study of Jewish attitudes towards Judaism. Researchers will concentrate primarily on young adults,and those with two Jewish parents,and those with just one,those who see themselves as Jewish and those who do not. Jay Rubin says Hillel will then use this study to formulate a strategy for making Judaism more relevant to the next generation of American Jews.
