[QUOTE="Houseman, post: 3844, member: 7"] What non-JWs might not know is that people don't get disfellowshipped, excommunicated, shunned, for a mistake, a sin, or a lapse in judgement. They get disfellowshipped because they are unrepentant about it. If this case was handled by the books, that's what should have been considered. Was she gradually pulled in too deep? Was she willing to dump her boyfriend? How far did they go? Did she try to hide the relationship? Questions like that should have been asked. Forgiveness and compassion are, generally speaking, either given to those who ask for it, or to those who lack understanding so as to not know that what they are doing is wrong. I'm not making any judgements, only explaining how the process goes. I don't even know the order of events here, if she was kicked out first and disfellowshipped later, or the other way around.
