Jewish and nonobservant?

How can you be part of a religion and not belive in it? It's like saying about a random guy who's muslim: "He's a muslim but nonobservant", it doesn't make any sense. Unless I've missed something. Also, I think it's stupid to call Jews a group of people, it's a religion, I could choose to be jewish now, if I wanted too.

Any individual who was born Jewish but doesn't practice that faith, or whose mother or father is Jewish, can be considered Jewish and nonobservant. Furthermore, one cannot just choose to be Jewish, as it runs much deeper than that. Not only must that person believe in that faith, there are rituals, ceremonies, and lesson that one must undergo before they may be considered and accepted as a Jew.

In an interview at designboom he indirectly speaks about this. He says "maybe it is a characteristic of training, and of being jewish, being outside of the culture to some degree. people who are outside the culture tend to pay more attention to things outside the culture. and they do not necessarily adapt to the belief system of the culture."
