A church leaver is a Christian who has decided he no longer wants to be a part of a local congregation. So he simply stops attending church, and no longer fellowships with Christians, and no longer submits himself to the authority of any church leadership structure. He has not necessarily ceased his belief in God and Jesus and the Bible, but rather he has chosen to no longer participate in church attendance, and all the trappings that come with church attendance.
Most church leavers who wish to remain devout in their faith rely heavily upon the internet for sermons and for indepth Bible research. They find comfort in being able to watch a pre-recorded YouTube sermon at their leisure, or else to be an anonymous "lurker" during a live webcast of a live Sunday morning sermon being sent out from some church elsewhere in the world.
They will sometimes interact on social media groups with other Christians where they might discuss theological matters and even ask for prayer. But the priority of a church leaver to remaining uncommitted to any one church body or group of believers is never compromised.

I became a church leaver when I realized that church attendance was more burdensome than simply worshiping God on my own.

A Confidential Human Source, or CHS, is an informant who covertly provides information to law enforcement about criminals and their activities. Their names are withheld from official law enforcement reports and documents to protect their identities.
Some critics of law enforcement claim that some instances of an alleged CHS are a mere fabrication, and there never was an actual human who provided the information. These critics claim that in such cases where the law enforcement agents fabricated the CHS did so as justification for a search warrant or other similar legalities of an investigation.

In ufology, a term for any "other-worldly" metals, alloys, substances, and artifacts allegedly retrieved by military and intelligence agencies from crashed UFOs. Once retrieved, the materials get stored in undisclosed warehouses and held for top secret scientific study. The efforts to covertly gather, store, and study such materials is believed to have been going on since the 1947 Roswell Incident. It is further alleged that various civilian-run contractors have been routinely executing "crash retrievals" upon the wreckages of downed UFOs for decades now, and have amassed multiple warehouses of these materials. The term "crash retrieval" will typically be used in the same conversation as the term "exotic materials."
The most famous example of an alleged exotic material in UFO lore is probably the "memory metal" which witnesses at Roswell claim littered the debris field of the 1947 crash.
The most important allegation about exotic materials is that supposedly most post-WWII technological breakthroughs --including transistors, semiconductors, microchips, motherboards, photovoltaic solar panels, night vision, heat vision, stealth technology, nano-tech, and the whole US space program-- would not have been possible without decades of access by secrecy-bound research scientists to these untold hauls of crash-retrieved items. The issuing of secret patents early on in the research process of these materials is the true incentive for military contractors to engage in the research.

Government scientists are secretly studying a vast collection of exotic materials that have been retrieved from crashed UFOs over the past 80 years. With each new exotic material they find, these researchers hope to unlock the hidden properties of these items, and derive practical applications (both military and commercial) from their findings.
