This "excommunication" is a word2009 Update: The fate of saints. The hope of a man on a date.
In speech ecclesiastical oft heard,
And means the damning, with bell, book and candle,
Some sinner whose opinions are a scandal —
A rite permitting Satan to enslave him
Forever, and forbidding Christ to save him.

EX - suffix meaning past or former

SHUN to actively keep away from or avoid a person, place, thought, or thing.
EXCOMMINICATION the former act of shunning communication with someone -- which must mean you are now comunicating.

excommunication:
According to a poem I once read excommunication is an non-act usually committed by those who think they are speaking for God when what they are really doing is firing blanks.

Yeah, I heard that too, Poobah.
Icy, is that why you reside in Tennessee?
Ariel, we stay home with higher ones and better odds.
Hahaha, Mutha. Nice research.
OK, Weirsdo, but I'm trying to imagine the sin required.

TLP, Weirsdo is one of you.
Why Jim, I had no idea there'd been two Mrs. Jims.
Ingles es verdad, Quilly, but I think you meant prefix.
Cooper, that is the Lutheran view, yes.
She excommunicated me with a glance,
When all I'd done is asked for the next dance.
The darkest night of a young man told in two lines. Great work, Rhbee!

Agreed, Ariel.
Oh please. You so know you'll buy the werewolves.
