Ironically, the same is true of Karl Marx! His father converted to Lutheranism and Karl was baptized as such.

As a young man he wrote a paper on the topical question of the Jews in Prussia[0], regarded in the modern day as antisemitic, though probably tame for the era.

Well, except that Karl Marx's mother was Jewish.
