Off topic, but I had a long discussion with Qaraim who all but convinced me that Judaism could also be patrilineal.
I didn’t agree with him, mind you, but it is a defensible position.
A position usually inhabited by those who are married to, have children by, or have loved ones who do not meet the guidelines of matrilinial descent.- Otherwise known as the Halacha which has been Jewish law for a milennia or two.
