Exactly right. My wife self-identifies as Jewish - her parents are Reform and observant, and one of her brothers is a rabbi. She speaks fluent Yiddish and a little Hebrew, and makes a reasonable effort to keep kosher, but she's not nuts over it (she refers to ham as 'Jewish salmon'). That being said, she's got no use for gods, godism, or godists. She's a Jewish atheist.
