[W]hat self-respecting Catholic will continue to tremble in fear when the earth doesn't open up and swallow him after he's "excomunicated"; when he doesn't break out in suppurating pustules when he's declared anathema?

The consequences of excommunication are not of this life.

What halfway-intelligent Catholic would even believe that such would be the consequences?
