[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 191032, member: 35"] Here is the last paragraph from the very first comment in this thread "Should Sunny Leone be Excommunicated? The thread starter, Randip Singh ji, respected forum leader, was not taking a personal position on this but asking some key questions. They are questions that lead to some very thorny issues. 1. What makes a Sikh? 2. Does excommunication mean the same thing in Sikhi as in another religion like Roman Catholicism? 3. How does the decision to mark one person for excommunication hold up, when other people committing the same offense never come to the attention of the panth? 3a. Should the Singhs who buy and watch pornography be held to the same level of moral accountability? Guru Nanak actually held men who took prostitutes to a higher level of moral accountability. 4. Is excommunication a matter of stripping one of one's religious affiliation, or is it more like shunning, wherein one is deprived of pangat and sangat until one receives a tankhah, carries it out, and asks for atonement? 5. What difference does it make to deprive Sunny Leone of pangat and sangat? Does it make me a better person? Does it bring me closer to Ik Oan Kar? 6. Does Ik Oan Kar reside within Sunny Leone, or not until she accepts a tankha and seeks attonement? And gets it? 7. If Sunny Leone is deprived of pangat and sangat, is the panth better for it? 8. How would the practice of Sikhi by Sikhs change in fundamental ways by punishment of Sunny Leone? Joginder Singh was excommunicated; Sikhs still read Rozana Spokesman. 9. This is a notorious case that will not die. Why does the sexuality of a woman acquire international notoriety? Why on the other hand is it the theological arguments of a man that achieve the same level of international notoriety? I am wondering about proportionality of moral outrage, not so much about equal treatment of sexes. 10. When Maharajah Ranjit Singh received a tankhah (in his case it was a sound whipping) for his dalliances with a dancing girl, he brought her into his household of wives and concubines. If my memory is correct - Gyani ji please correct me - this was the same woman who came to sati when he died. Does our high regard for the greater achievements of Maharaja ji outweigh our concern for kaam, or sati? Or did his humble acceptance of punishment make Sikhs more forgiving? Sunny Leone would not be "on his same level." Or would she? [/QUOTE]
