Why are people whose memberships were posthumously restored not permitted in this list? If people left the church voluntarily and never attempted to re-join, that ought to be reflected in categorization Fledchen 00:15, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
- The point of that was not to exclude people who left the church voluntarily and never attempted to re-join. I am not personally aware of anyone who left the church voluntarily, never attempted to re-join, and had his or her membership posthumosly restored. If you know of any cases of this, I would be interested in hearing about it. Rather, I wanted to exclude people like the two specific examples I gave, John W. Taylor and John D. Lee. These were people who were excommunicated by the church, but considered themselves faithful. Apparently the hierarchy agreed in retrospect, since it restored their membership.

[edit] Agreed
I agree and have edited the page to reflect the change.
[edit] Categorized
I added Category:People by former religion as I think that fits. Hopefully I'll resist temptation to edit for a time.--T. Anthony 07:31, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
