RE: Modern Excommunication
I have a difficult time seeing why people care so much about being excommunicated from a church which they don't support..
It's like someone sending a you a letter that you've been kicked out of a country club in another state that you never belonged to in the first place.
The only issue here as I see it, is that they are formally declaring a divide, and even an official disdain toward other denominations, which at worst only lessens any general goodwill that may have been found between the denominations.
I don't see this as having any effect in my town, where the Catholic church and the Protestant church are across the street from one another.
(Unless you count us standing on the roof shooting those 12 inch bottle rockets over Main St. at the Catholics as they exit mass.. :-D )
