"That could happen if those priests publicly proclaimed their actions were not sinful. Let me know when that happens."

No, that should have happened because they betrayed the trust of their flock and took advantage of innocent boys. All while knowing that the Church would pay-off the families and transfer the priests to start their crimes in another location. Until the church comes to grips with the systematic criminal activity and cover-up of that activity perpetrated against innocent kids I can't hold much weight behind who they choose to excommunicate.

Your reply shows you know nothing about canon law.

I can't hold much weight behind who they choose to excommunicate.

Who cares?

You probably think women who have had abortions and now realize that it was wrong should shut up too, because after all they are just sinners and have no credibility.
