3. I was communicated with once. I guess when I stopped being

communicated with I was then considered excommunicated too. :hi:

4. If you are Catholic, you still have to go to Church...

Under Catholic Doctrine, Ex-communications means you can Not take Communion, but you still are expected to go to Church. It is a limit on interaction, but not a complete ban on interaction. you can still buy and Sell, plant and sow, make things etc, it is communication that is limited, and then only to show you are no longer a member in good standing in the Community.

6. I was going to say, if you're Catholic, shop around and find a new parish that

isn't being run by some asshole. (I've become very, very anti-clerical in recent years, does it show?) There are a few older priests from Vatican II still left here and there. I don't know what the rest of us will do when they're gone.

7. Way to go!

There's no point in being upset being kicked out of a "club" whose leaders have no claim to any kind of higher morality than anyone else, and believe me, the Catholic Church gave that up a looooooong time ago.

11. How'd you find out?

If you think you'd miss the community of religion, either find another religion or else find a different kind of community. I've done the latter.

12. If you mean from a church, congratulations.

If you are still inclined to be religious, there are others more deserving of you attention and support.

13. I was in 1998.

Haven't looked back.
