Two centuries of intermarriage? 200 years? Seriously? If you think everyone intermarried in the shtetl in 1824 I think we have another big issue to discuss than your subject or even the oddball math this implies. Amongst non-orthodox people, I didn’t even know anyone with intermarried parents until I reached college in another state. The idea of being “half Jewish” was still foreign even to me.
You still have issues with kriuv regardless because everyones idea of “religion” is based upon what Hollywood puts out post 2015. All arguments and references are a cartoon version of being a xtian. Whatever you are offering to them is beyond alien and they cannot process.
