Undoubtedly you are right about this. Guess I'm going to have scrap my plans for my line of "Daughters of Zion" toe rings. Don't you think we ought to save excommunication for people who actually commit a serious sin (or any sin)? This seems to just boil down to some kind of branding infraction.

No? Both are marketing an embarrassing product whose subject matter is the intellectual property of the church.
