Both my Mom and Dad said the letter said future children would go to hell, I have some papers from my Dad in a box I should look as see if that letter is there.
Needless to say he never went back and my Mom, said she would never consider Catholicism.
“readmission”, hum, my Dad took it as excommunication.

Oh, it IS excommunication. But not all excommunication is a “life-sentence,” and in fact even the excommunicate can receive communion if they’re dying.

Usually excommunications and interdicts have conditions for being readmitted to the Sacraments.
