My daughter's blog calls being proudly secular being a heathen (see here and here). She has observed that unlike in the United States, a proudly secular Jew who is invited somewhere for the sabbath will not willingly don a skullcap.
In our house we have a drawer near the dining table and it has a dozen or so skullcaps (aka yarmulke, kipah) and whenever we invite a Jew over for a meal, if they don't have a skullcap on, they ask for one.
Apparently it is not like that in Israel. The secular Jews feel no need to conform to religious normalistic practice.
