With regard to shunning a member for taking blood, there is a big difference between making a willful choice to defy the Bible's command to abstain from blood and having blood forced on you through a court order. Willfully choosing to disobey our creator would result in expulsion; it's the same as a single woman being raped. Were she to engage willfully in sexual intercourse, thereby defying the Bible's clear command on sexual relations being reserved for the marriage union, she would be violating the creators command and would merit discipline. Being raped - having sex forced on her - would not be a willful violation of God's commands on her part.
But this is not the forum for these discussions.
