The result was merge with Apostasy. Mailer Diablo 10:22, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Ex-Christian
I don't think this is a very useful page. The term itself should be covered by a dicdef since the other sections on the page make assumptions about the "ex-christian" including trying to list reasons why they became ex-christian and the process they went through, which is clearly not the same for all ex-christians. --Pboyd04 00:12, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with Apostasy. The article is about apostasy, and should be mentioned shortly in that article. There's no reason to belabor the point by making it into a separate article. Alphachimp  talk  00:20, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per Alphachimp. A redirect to that page probably isn't necessary. -- H·G (words/works) 01:21, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge as above. I would've said keep, it seemed to have potential, but it just stinks too much of OR and speculation. &mdash; RevRagnarok  Talk Contrib Reverts 02:17, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge to Apostasy. --Core des at talk. o.o;; 04:37, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per above. SynergeticMaggot 04:51, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per above Crazywolf 06:47, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect, as per Alphachimp.  (aeropagitica)   (talk)   09:21, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge into the "In Christianity" section of Apostasy according to Alphachimp's reasons. Scorpiondollprincess 14:12, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Unnecessary and presumptious. Abcdefghijklm 15:49, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete and once deleted, possibly create a redirect to apostasy. This article is obviously original research and I see nothing of value to be merged. The article is an unsourced list of reasons someone might cease to be a Christian.  While interesting and while, given the prominence of the ex-Christian movement within the atheist community this is a topic worthy of an article, the currsent article is unhelpful.

 * Merge and Redirect - Subject matter is related to Apostasy and may be a valid search term. Otherwise we may end up revisiting this AFD in the future. Torinir  ( Ding my phone  My support calls   E-Support Options  ) 00:41, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Redirect to apostasy; nothing in here to merge save a dicdef and original research. Z iggurat 01:26, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
