Catholic Group Petitions Pope to Excommunicate Nancy Pelosi

[BigBossman]

So if a member of your church were in a prominent public position and he (or she) started publicly advocating for abortion, or gay marriage, or any other sin for that matter, your pastor and deacons wouldn't say to stop it?

If that person didn't stop and instead started bringing literature to your church to advocate that sin your pastor or deacons wouldn't say to stop it?

And if that person didn't stop your pastor or deacons wouldn't separate that person from the rest of the church members? They would not tell that person to not to come back until they repented of that sin?

I don't have a problem with banning someone from a particular church if someone has been extremely disruptive. I don't believe in saying "You are no longer a Baptist, or a Pentecostal, or a Methodist." They can easily say "Stop it" & tell them to go elsewhere if they are going to continue to distract people during the worship service. A church like any other home is considered to be private property.

All I was saying was that you can't remove someone completely from a denomination. If your views aren't that of the denomination you are with, then find one that suits you & don't be disruptive.

Being 'excommunicated' simply means the person can no longer partake in the Sacraments. They can still attend Mass, bible studies...ect. If I'm not mistaken they are still 'Roman Catholic'. They can still repent and eventually be brought back into full status of the Church.
