[Dr. Eckleburg]

And the *or else* is burn in hell for eternity because we’ll ex-communicate you if you don’t buckle under.

A fate supposedly all Bible-believing Christians have been condemned to for trusting Christ's promise not to let go of us.

[Natural Law]

"And the *or else* is burn in hell for eternity because we’ll ex-communicate you if you don’t buckle under."

As one who purports to know everything there is to know about Catholicism you should know that excommunication does not seek to judge anyone's salvation or in anyway interfere with their relationship with God. It merely affirms one's own willful separation from the Church. So my question is why you would say differently? Was it a simple error or a willful misrepresentation?
