Sure, but Spanish and Irish atheists don't refer to themselves as atheistic catholics, whereas I have heard jewish friends of mine refer to themselves as atheistic jews.

But the term atheist Jew is just a proxy for atheist Ashkenazi or atheist Sephardi. Which is no different from atheist Irishman or atheist Spaniard.
