Is that what you were looking for?
Seriously, it means what it says, ex comes from the Greek έξω meaning out. Therefore ex-UPC would mean he left the organization to join a church where the ministers preach barefoot. I think from what I read over the years from his posts he had traumatic experiences where he wan't allowed to play card games, or monopoly. Was never allowed to remove his shoes during service. had to wear white gloves, and a top hat. Also he had to hitch his buggy and horse across the street from the church. He also wasn't allowed running water, or electricity because flowing things were of the devil. He had to cut his hair in a tonsure and had to shave his face including his eyebrows.
