"fyi they desfellowship people cuz they do bad stuff and they dont want it to spread!"
I don't think Phoenix has a problem with the fact that people can be disfellowshipped. The problem is that when people are disfellowshipped or disassociated they are shunned. This leads to an unhealthy amount of pressure to stay within the church for reasons having little to do with God.

Take for example John Rabe, a Nazi businessman who saved thousands of Chinese during the Nanjing massacre. Now I think that is a very good deed. Still I wholeheartedly disagree with Nazi ideology. Just an example that 'good' people can be in 'bad' organizations.
