They are only catholic cause it's tradition. Hispanics are catholic. So are italians and Irish which is what we are.

Plenty of people like this in other faiths too. People who don't want to take a position against the faith they were brought up in, but don't really subscribe to all its rules either. jwb's family sound like "go along to get along Catholics".
So many people havwe this kind of approach, I think, at least in England; they don't want to put "atheist" on a questionaire, so they put "C of E" without having visited a church in years. ( = Church of England = Protestant )
@Batlord: "Francis" is a gay name ?!? Tell that to my Uncle Frank, who fought in WW2 !
