[Jayhawker Soule]

Can't seem to get an answer here, ...

Where did you ask?

I didn't ask, ...

 

[Desert Snake]

I didn't ask, it has been opined (more than once), in relation to other things I stated.

All the Jews I know who left the religion call themselves "Jews".

Just like the all the Christians that left Christianity and call themselves Christians?

No, it's different , there are atheist Jews etc., but I wanted to get some other perspective.

There are atheist Christians too.

 

[Desert Snake]

There are atheist Christians too.

Hmm perhaps. Different subject though.
Let's just say, when someone self identifies as "Jewish" and they're atheist, I think it's valid, and if they choose not to identify as Jewish that's fine as well. I like to let people define themselves.

They're different. They call themselves various other things, but most of the former
Xians I know call themselves "atheist". It's very popular among the reprobates.

I like to call the ex-Christian set "non-Christian", not all reprobates turn atheist.

Of course. I spoke only of those I personally know.

Lol I've never heard an atheist identify as a 'non-Christian'.:biglaugh:

How about just asking them what they identify as?:jiggy:

Neither have I.
Btw, it seems that most of those I know who converted to atheism are ex-Catholics.

 

[kashmir]

What are people from other countries called when the leave and become members of other countries?
Answer: People...
go figure, who would have known

 

[Desert Snake]

Neither have I.

That's interesting, I wouldn't have guessed that.

 

[Revoltingest]

Perhaps it's due to this area having many Catholics & a large god-hating
gay-friendly elite university.....a perfect storm of apostacy, eh?

what is a jew called when they leave Judaism?/

Whatever they may call themselves, we call them Jews. They may be Jewish apostates or heretics or transgressors of one commandment or another. But a Jew-- whether from birth or by conversion-- is a Jew forever: the covenant is unbreakable.

 

[Tali018]

..., so what is a Jew called when they leave Judaism?

Your question is too open. Leave Judaism in what manner?
