As a non-denominational Christian it's a pretty broad term to me anyway (and there's strong scriptural support for that view, after all. )

There is a difference in the degree of the transgressions and the public nature of them as well.

Um... no? One can be excommunicated for any number of things. *NM*

Actually, the Pope has the right to say "sorry, you're not a Catholic anymore".

Inaction, like, for example, not saving lives where you could have is also grounds for expulsion.

Hmm, but I think that's a different type of inaction than the kind he's discussing
