Creative Blending

Seeking understanding and unity, which are basic tenets of most religions, are the attitudes that will lead to solving problems of religion and how to give your children a religious background. “Interfaith families who take the religious development of their children seriously can model healthy and respectful pluralism. They can live out what should be the goal for society as a whole,” maintains Darrel H. Jodock of Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota, who focuses on religious trends in America and Jewish-Christian relations. When you learn about each other’s faith (or nonreligious beliefs) in a spirit of acceptance and tolerance you can then create a blend of your own. Of course, it’s easiest if this is done before having children, because the stakes don’t seem as high, but couples don’t often think of this ahead of time. Your relationship and your family bonding will benefit when you learn to overcome your differences: “Trimming the Christmas tree or lighting menorah candles together may strengthen your marriage,” said Syracuse University psychology professor Barbara Fiese, who interviewed 120 couples about the particulars of their religious holiday rituals. “We have found that couples who embrace their rituals reaffirm beliefs as well as a relationship.”
