If they were denying her communion due to her stance on something such as the prolife issues which Biden’s leaders are, the media would be all over it. You know that. So answer the question put to you in the post rather than avoiding it.

If you were a catholic (sounds like you might be) and the leaders of your church denied communion to you, would that put you at the mainstream or the extreme?

Is this the question you are referring to? It is a hypothetical that wouldn't apply to me (the premise is false) because I wouldn't present myself for Communion unless I was in a state of grace. In more general terms, there is not enough information to draw a definite conclusion.

I understand what you're trying to say, but that is not a good example. If one defiantly presents themselves for Communion knowing that they are not in a state of grace, well, they place their salvation in peril by committing a sacrilege.
