also you might want to define what "not-religious" means. as a Jew: you should know there are no grey areas. maybe its time to define exactly what Israel is all about... than continue to use the religion as a form of existance there. i mean you just confirmed that 90% dont practice the religion. there is a saying in hebrew "you cant eat the whole cake all the time"...
A) Why the laws are based on Jewish law is a political question whose answer is better suited to OMNI, IMO.
B) What do you mean no gray areas. That's ALL we have are gray areas.
C) Double Standard? Bool.
