If an adult descendant of intermarriage -- which in the context of our message board means the descendant of an intermarried Jew -- posts asking for help in locating spiritual or secular resources, such as a friendly Jewish synagogue, or a welcoming Christian church, or a receptive Muslim mosque, or a secular organization's website, other adult descendant of intermarriage posters on this message board are happy to assist them, and are encouraged to do so.
6. The adult descendants of intermarriage on this message board come from a wide range of religious and secular beliefs, and many different cultures and ethnicities, and we insist on respect for our diversity.
7. We also ask that posters on our message board please keep in mind the sensitivities of other members of the Half-Jewish Network who read the messages posted here.
8. Please try not to post messages that imply or state that another person's spiritual or secular cultural beliefs are silly, stupid or wrong, or that one faith or secular culture is superior to another.
9. This message board is for all adult descendants of intermarriage who would like to communicate with the rest of us in a friendly and respectful manner.
