A Roman Catholic who hasn't been to mass for a whole year is automatically excommunicated.
This person is not Catholic. If they claim otherwise, they are just lying.

There are people like that yes. They will tell you they are Catholic. but how can they be when they behave like that? The do not attend Mass, but they usually get the children Christened, Holy Communion and Confirmation but they don't (practice there Faith)I think that is the word for it "practice". There are Catholics in the world that do not follow Jesus teaching and live how they like: eg.. fornicating outside of marriage, cohabiting, contraception, divorce & marriage in registry office. They should know this is wrong but they do it anyway. I Pray they realize before It is to late for there Souls.

Sounds like you're describing a name-only Catholic. A true Catholic would do the opposite of everything you mentioned.
God bless.

As long as you have been Baptised in the Church, and have not committed the crime of abortion, you are still Catholic.
