Interreligious relations
[edit]The Society meets alongside the Society of Christian Ethics. There have sometimes been tensions between the two organizations, as when the Society of Christian Ethics invited Reverend Jeremiah Wright to speak in 2009, and Wright criticized Israel. The Society of Jewish Ethics board objected to Wright's claim that Israel was engaged in ethnic cleansing.[12] Jewish theologian Marc Ellis criticized the Society of Jewish Ethics board for their objection to Wright's appearance and for their failure to criticize Israel during the 2009 Gaza War.[13]
