Question to all those using the "Yoked to 'unbelievers'" as the basis for their "arguement": What would you do if you had a sibling who, through a phase of transition/self discovery/awakening/etc. decides that they would now like to be active practice Buddhism, Kaballah, Scientiology, etc.?

I'll bite. The definition for yoked is "to become joined securely." "To become" implies that you were not joined together in the past, that you did something to get in the present state of being joined together. So you are not yoked to your siblings, you did nothing to make a bond with them. Not to say a bond doesn't exist, the blood bond is perhaps one of the most powerful bonds that exist, however, you can't control who your blood sisters or brothers are. Where as with joining a glo or getting marriage, or however else you decided to tie yourself to someone, that is a choice on your part. A choice that everyone has to make for themselves...
