Question
I want to go into business and need a non-Jewish partner to operate the business and receive the profits made on Shabbat. One of my best friends has a Jewish father and non-Jewish mother. He considers himself Jewish because of his patrilineal ancestry, though he knows that Orthodox Jews don’t recognize him as a Jew and accepts that. He is a very nice and honest person and is one of the few people I trust for this. Can such a person be used under any circumstances as a Shabbos goy?

I have a question not about faith, but about lineage. This whole ancestry thing has gotten so popular as so many are shelling out a lot of money to find out where they came from.
