ages ago we talked about being de-batised and weather its possible in your Christian churches either catholic or protestant. remember it was a big ramble chat and decided from church view was you can never be de-batised.

Their is however an in between point were you can ask to be removed as an active member of that church. perhaps for some of reasons below.

--to join another church
--disagreement or disapprove with the churches currrent behaviour
--disagreement with churches past behaviours
--to un-enrole your name from the baptisimale register therefore showing the true numbers of people trulie practising.
--a protest agenst church teachings.
--protest agenst churches treatment of certine groups (why would anyone want to belong to something that doesn't want them)

certainly that list is not exosted.

so it looks like this has been done and has been passed as long ago as 2006. That their is a web sight that can deal with appro0priate documentation. It can also point you in direction of dealing with considerations of removal from catholic register, like were to be buried, married, kids christened etc.

if intrested or just wanna talk about it in a new way then its the first link on the web page that opens. Its called "count me out" happy reading and deciding
