A catholic can be excommunicated and/or denied the sacraments (including things like last rites) for not supporting (acting in oppostion to) any/all things the church is opposed to?

Actually, the fact that Kerry and others have not been excommunicated is a pretty sign that that's not the case.

Do rules that are not applied really equal rules? Selective application of a set of rules makes the enforcement of those rules seem fickle.
