[quote=Anonymous][quote]I’m a secular Jew, and haven’t belonged to a synagogue for 25 years. My husband is a non-practicing Christian. My kids are 14 and 16 and they haven’t really been raised in any religion; we do Christmas with DH’s family and High Holidays, Passover and Chanukah with mine. But that’s really it.[/quote] This statement reinforces my opinion that most American Jews, at least the Leftist/Progressive ones, can be summarized thusly: atheists strongly adhering to a religious family tradition. I would say this applies also to non-practicing Catholics: atheists with a religious family tradition but not as strongly loyal to that identity as a Jew. By no means do I mean any offense by these statements, it is only an observation based upon my limited knowledge of Judaism. For instance, I do not consider Hasidic Jews to be atheists but I could be wrong. [/quote]
