Really? So for 2300 years, the Jews have determined that whether the child is the offspring or Jews or not is just a matter of 'privilege.'
"The change to matrilineal lineage from paternal lineage seems to have originated in late antiquity (approximately 200 or 300 CE) and is historically attributed to Jews trying to adapt Jewish law to the Roman legal system."

You're not Jewish, are you?
