I am happy for the writer, happy that this process helped him find a way home.
My complaint about excommunication is that is often seen as the solution when the actual problem is one of the severe mental illnesses such as bipolar or borderline. Then, when the person is not helped and sins seriously again, leaders give up. They seem unable to recognize that they have diagnosed the wrong problem and applied the wrong solution.
