    Yep. It's on the Watchtower's very OWN Media site. Here's the relevant part:

    Do you shun former members?

    Those who simply cease to be involved in the faith are not shunned. In compliance with the Scriptures, however, members can be expelled for serious unchristian conduct, such as stealing, drunkenness, or adultery, if they do not repent and cease such actions. Disfellowshipping does not sever family ties. Disfellowshipped members may continue to attend religious services, and if they wish, they may receive pastoral visits. They are always welcome to return to the faith.1 Corinthians 5:11-13.

    They did put more emphasis on it being a personal decision you make with God.

    They also covered their arses regarding the bad sheparding in the congregation.

    Man I wish I'd brought my notes.

    Jourles,

    You are not the only one who was at the Silverdome last weekend.

    Send me an e-mail if you want to know more. We may know each other.
