From the Jewish perspective, a person born to a Jewish woman is a Jew. That person can convert to a different religion and if they do, they're seen as being cut off from the Jewish Nation. However, if they choose to return to Judaism they aren't required to convert, they just have to make 't'shuvah' (repent and return to Judaism).
Additionally, although there is no such thing as a Jewish race, there are regional genetic markers that are shared amongst Jews from most countries, including Europe, and other Middle Eastern non-Jewish groups.

Should Jewish believer stop being Jewish?
"First of all, although one may deny all belief in the Jewish system of spiritual values, and abandon any vestige of participation in Jewish practices and traditions, one isn't able to "stop being Jewish". That's a fact of birth than one hasn't the power to erase. Now, to answer the question: Whether one should or shouldn't do something is always a matter of opinion. It happens to be our opinion that one should continue to "be Jewish" in every detail over which he has control. But you're certainly entitled to your own opinion." There is no Jewish race. It is a religion. And no, there is nothing wrong with being Jewish, just as there is nothing wrong with being a Christian or a Muslim.
