    I’m not religious and I follow no religious rules of any kind. We still take time off for the christmas holiday though, and have a feast. Why couldn’t non-religious jews do the same, eating whatever they’d feel like?

    Oy indeed.
    This reminds me of a short (true) story. A few years ago my daughter, then aged 7, and another girl in our neighborhood were close friends and played together almost everyday.
    My daughter ate dinner at their house several times, and sometimes the other girl ate at ours.
    One day I was intrigued to receive a letter in the mail from the other girls parents. I opened it to find an invitation to her brothers bar-mitzvah.
    “OMG!”, I said to my wife “They’re Jewish!?”
    “Well, obviously.”
    “Don’t you get it?”
    “What?”
    “We fed her ham last night!”

    The whole Kosher thing came in after the Babylonian exile of the Jewish aristocracy. Before then Jews ate whatever they could get. It all depends on how much of a fundamentalist you are.
