Under Jewish Religious Law, anyone whose mother is a valid Jew, is always considered to be a Jew. Some Jewish groups discriminate against children who only have a Jewish father. In those groups, if only your father is a Jew, you are not considered to be a full fledged Jew. You would have to go through a Conversion process to become a full fledged Jew. Most Half Jews don't bother going through a Conversion process.

If you are a valid Jew, and you accept and practice Christianity, you are still a Jew, but religiously you would be considered a Bad Jew

You may be. Technically, if your mother is Jewish you're Jewish. So, if your mother's mother was Jewish your mother was Jewish and you're Jewish.

This is something you would need to discuss with a rabbi.
