...although it's an interesting corollary that some might want to discuss. Your point obviously pertains to ethnic Jews who reject Judiaism as a subset of all atheists, though. Thanks for raising it. It wasn't something I'd considered previously.

I'm just an "atheist." Not a Christian athiest, or Jewish atheist, if you understand my meaning. That's the group of atheists I was really talking about. Just atheists who reject Judiaism, regardless of their ethnicity or religious background.
