Being Jewish means belonging to certain nationality, Juan. And the
fact that you children will be Jewish, as was mentioned earlier,
reflects a tradition. It has nothing to do with religion. Among Jews
(both religious and secular ones), the Jewishness is passed through
mother's line of blood.

Though it is heavily OT, I thought I'd mention that, simply because it
would seem that pretty harmless comment is causing this discussion to
take unexpected direction.
