Reb Moshe is acknowledging the danger of intermarriage from a non-Jew
who views himself as Jewish. However he allows the teaching of Torah
only because the person is a "questionable Jew". It follows that if the
person is definitely not Jewish he would not have given this heter. 
Otherwise Reb Moshe would have simply said "any non-Jew who has a Jewish
identity should be educated in Torah and converted".


Daniel Eidensohn

====================================
Could be, but not compelling. Perhaps he was just responding to the
question at hand and not trying to show how far he would take the
argument.
