I honestly don't understand why the Church doesn't start excommunicating these people.

A whole lot of us have been wondering the same thing for a long time.

Excommunication is something you do to your self by practicing apostasy (such as these folks in Sin Francisco). The Church merely proclaims as fact what has already occurred.

Excommunication is a real option, but apparently some clergy are afraid of offending impenitent offenders, both in Roman Catholic and Protestant church bodies. Heck, why not come to the Holy Supper dressed in a dog collar and bondage gear, alongside your BDSM slave?

These are the same kind of hireling clergymen that harbor illegal aliens in defiance of--and really, with contempt for--our nation's laws.
