[Haaretz] Novelist Michael Chabon delivered a diatribe against Jewish inmarriage [meaning he was for inter marriage],
as well as Israel's occupation of the West Bank, in a commencement speech to newly ordained Reform rabbis.
Speaking to the graduating class of the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Los Angeles on May 14, the author of acclaimed novels including "The Yiddish Policeman's Union" lambasted boundaries of any kind ‐ religious, ethnic or national. He spoke about how he once wanted his children to marry Jews, but now opposes the idea of Jewish endogamy.
He also spoke of his own atheism and dislike of obligatory Jewish rituals, and asserted that the story of the Jewish exodus from Egypt was fabricated. [only a few people walked out during the speech but some probably stayed away knowning what he was going to say]

Hebrew Union College, founded in 1875, is the oldest Jewish theological seminary in the United States. They provide graduate level education to rabbis, cantors, and anyone interested in deepening their knowledge of Reform-style Judaism, regardless of faith. The original campus is in Cincinnati, Ohio with additional campuses in New York City, Los Angeles, and Jerusalem.
While utterly tasteless, the newly minted rabbis and cantors will have to develop arguments to use in the face of this kind of thing, because they’ll be getting a lot of it throughout their careers.
