I've never really understood the idea of identifying as non-religious but accepting that maternal rite (Judaism) or baptism somehow makes you a Jew or a Christian.  If you're not religious, why do you accept the authority of religious rites in dictating what religion you are?  That doesn't make sense.

(I'm not saying one can't be culturally Jewish or Christian, although that's not really a meaningful religious identification in my book...it's the "I don't believe it's true but I'm x because x religion says I am" that baffles me.)

Yes! Someone who makes sense!
