Definition
A state of separation from religious community or church fellowship, often used as a synonym for excommunication.
Etymology
Formed from 'ex-' (out) and 'communion' (shared religious participation), creating a direct opposite to the concept of communion or fellowship in a religious community.
Kelly Says
This elegant word construction literally means 'un-communion'—it's the perfect opposite of the word 'communion,' making it linguistically symmetrical and showing how Latin-based words can build meaning through opposition.
