What a bunch of dumb asses you are! When you are killed in Judaism it only means that you are no longer recognized! You no longer belong, you are cast out! You don't actually die in the literal sense. You're just not a Jew anymore. Don't shrug it off however because it's a serious matter. Your parents sit shiva for you as if you'd died. You're dead. Non-Jews do this also except they don't name it. The vast majority don't ritualize it.

Now for religious Jews, this could breaking with tradition. For secular Jews, this will be acting in a manner that threatens the welfare of civilized,, hardworking, even gentle people. You would have to be a soul beyond human redemption to merit that sentence of "No, we don't even care about what happens to this person."

Cat Stevens. Guess he gets a free pass too:
