The examples of cooperation range from some that seem ground- break- ing to others that don't involve- sub- stantive interdenominational cooper tion at all, as when rabbis offer their own views of the pluralism debate in panel discussions or when congrega- tions around the country, connected with all of the movements, separately host a crash course in Hebrew offered by the National Jewish Outreach Pro- gram. Many of the examples came in two arenas where joint interdenom 1- national work has long been prac- ticed: chaplaincy and adult Jewish education. Rabbi Mark Schneier, president of the New York Board of Rabbis, came up with the idea for the study because these days, "people only hear about the divisiveness and the conflict" within the Jewish comm nity. "I'm trying to give a more balance • view of the state of the Jewish union. There's a calling out there for the Jew- ish and rabbinic community to find ways to unite, and there's a very strong foundation of rabbis out there making a concerted effort to find ways to cooperate and find areas of- common cause." The $10,000 cost of the study was underwritten by philanthropists Charles Bronfman, Michael Jessel- son and Michael Steinhardt as part of their joint $50,000 gift to Schneier's new effort to put togethe a nationwide association of boards of rabbis. But Rabbi Irving Greenberg, a longtime analyst of Jewish religious and communal life who predicted in 1985 that religious extremism woul polarize the Jewish people into virtu ally two religions, the big picture is that there's less cooperation and co munal activity and willingness to d things together than there ever has been." "No one should fool themselve into thinking that the big picture truly a good one," he said, when "the atmosphere is one of an almo total breakdown'? between the diff , ent Jewish religious philosophies. Greenberg compared the exam- ples cited in the New York board study to the few thousand righteo gentiles who risked their own live to save Jews during the Holocaust. While we should be grateful for them, he said, "no one has the illusi that they stopped the catastrophe from happening." Jewish Telegraph Agency
