The bottom line on who is and who is not Jewish has little to do with
how religious a person is.  When,  in  the dark of night, a jack boot
comes kicking through your  door  the  kind gentleman who enters will
probably not ask where or if you worship.

Arguments by the orthodoxy (or any other group for that matter)  that 
propose various groups  of born Jews are in fact not Jews in the eyes
of God, are total nonsense and are counter-productive. 

How many German Jews  who thought themselves ``Good Germans'' made it
through the camps?
