It is VERY DIFFICULT for me to understand why the Catholic Church (full disclosure: I am not Catholic) has not excommunicated prominent Catholics who claim to be practicing Catholics yet support such anti-Catholic issues as abortion?

Anyone?

I would say its the same reason why the Baptist/Orthodox/Lutheran/Mormon etc. Churches have not excommunicated prominent Baptists/Orthodoxy/Lutherans/Mormons who claim to be practicing Baptist/Orthodox/Lutheran/Mormons yet support such anti-Baptist/Orthodox/Lutheran/Mormon issues as abortion.
