Christinanity has historically treated apostasy as a severe covenant-breaking transgression, often punished with excommunication, loss of civil rights, and in some cases state-sanctioned execution. Judajism regards it as a sin, and will often shun the person and treat them as dead in all but legal situations where they're still considered Jewish by birth. The BuyBull prescribes the death penalty for idolatry and apostasy (Deuteronomy 13:6-10 and Deuteronomy 17:2-5). If you want to take care of all Abrahamic religions in one fell swoop, declare that any supposed religion whose holy texts vilify other religions/non-believers and/or advocates prejudice or violence towards their followers, is then not itself a valid religion.
