but my daughters attended parochial school 4th grade to high school, daughters are combo kids, I'm Jewish, husband was Catholic, but we only celebrated 'important' holidays and never went to church or synagogue. Holy Trinity (in DC, Potus Biden attends and JFK did so too; a very liberal parish in Georgetown DC)

And I’m not terribly surprised to hear about some actors rejecting traditional belief systems. To do their jobs well they have to assume many different, even opposing mindsets for the characters they present.

Eventually the single-mindedness that perpetuates religious dogma must just dissolve within them. As a fellow nonbeliever, I say good for him.
