Canon Law calls for us to try and bring those who are in error back into the truth.Catholics In Name Only ,CINO. i’VE been fighting that for over 40 years, get rid of RINOs ,and CINOs? Especially The Catholics In Name Only, their Disruptive!
Much like “liberal” or “conservative” the term “Catholic In Name Only” is misguided attempt to bring political language into the theological/canonical realm. One is either Catholic or not Catholic. It doesn’t mean that someone is a good or faithful Catholic, but once batized they remain forever Catholic. And unless under some kind of canonical penalty they enjoy all the rights that every other baptized Catholic does.
You might not like your brother or sister, but they remain forever your brother or sister.
