You can leave Christianity, but Christianity won’t leave you. No matter how toxic some of its elements, they will still be there in the environment, living on like plastic trash in the minds and hearts and bodies of your neighbors, and through them, Christianity will still influence you. So Christianity must be recycled, whether you stay part of it or not. Another word for recycled is redeemed, built on the word deem, to give value. And another word for redeemed is re-consecrated, to make holy again what has been desecrated.
