Taijmonkey,
I'll be ****ed.
I was all ready to bring out a bunch of examples of Biblical intermarriages but I guess those were just transgressions?
Ah. . . I know. Since there obviously IS conversion in the Jewish faith, those "intermarriages" involved either conversion or renounciation. But this sort of thing...was what I was thinking of when I posted. Just old fasioned cultural insularism.1.) My Father Roman Catholic and my Mother Lutherian Protestant never got a church wedding as one would have had to convert to the other faith, not a real problem as my country does not accept religious weddings as legal anyway.
