Thanks for your input everyone maybe staying away is simply the best thing but two things kind of concern me though. 1. What about other members of UBF?

Well, first off, the other members didn't do anything to keep you when you were expelled. This is how far their "love" towards you goes: to the doors of the "center", I've experienced the same thing, when you leave, they submit to the chapter director, so that is the person whom they really look to... YOU don't matter, you're just a +1 count in SWS attendance plus a lucky hit for the shepherd who gets a +1 to his 1:1 count from you.

Second, they don't really care for the reasons, most of them probably assume you "left God's grace" and that's it for them. If you just come again, maybe leave again later, they'll consider you to be "weak and wavering".

Third, if they really want a reason for you not coming back, just point them back to S.Z. - tell them he's the reason why you left in the first place, so he's also responsible for your not coming back (for me, that were 100% true, for you, you'd need to sort that out).

But in general, STAY AWAY, they just set the stage for further abuse now.

In Christ,
Mike K.
