.Catholic AnswerIf you mean can a protestant be a Godparent for a Catholic, then the answer is no. The Godparent's job is to bring the child up in the Catholic faith, and the first basic requirement of a Godparent is that they are a good practicing Catholic.
No. There is no such custom. Typically, a completely non-practicing Jew would not even want to use a mezuzah.
No. The godparent must be a practicing Catholic, because their job as a godparent is to guide the child in practicing their faith. If the godparent isn't Catholic, then they can't fulfill their duties: they can't be a godparent.

It a typical week, a practicing Jew would do the same things as a non-Jew: go to work, have dinner with the family, do housework, watch TV, etc.Orthodox (and some non-Orthodox) practicing Jews will also pray each morning, usually before going to work, and then again in the evening before dinner.Answer:Note that many Orthodox Jews do not own a TV. In addition to the above answer, a practicing Jew says blessings before and after eating and on many other occasions. Only kosher foods are eaten. Some Torah-study will usually take place several times a week or every day. The Sabbath is kept, with its prayers and festive meals, and abstaining from work.
No, to be a Godparent at a Catholic baptism one must be a baptized and practicing Catholic. However, you may also have another sponsor in addition to the Catholic Godparent. That second person does NOT have to be Catholic. Technically, they probably don't need to be christened, but what would be the point of having someone be a Godparent who does not believe in Christ?
