(To a religious Jew, the question is as absurd as asking "How can an Italian who does not have faith in Catholicism resume his Italian-ness?") It is for this reason that Judaism does not recognize de-conversion or apostasy. If a Jewish person who has been atheist or the adherent of a different faith wishes to rediscover their Judaism, there are numerous organizations that can assist with that and are sponsored by the different Jewish movements.
