Why? Because the paladin code directly contradicts the Commandments of the Battleragers in a couple of instances. You could be an unempowered paladin I guess, but then what the hell's the point of being a paladin at all? A holy warrior who's shunned by his deity wouldn't exactly be welcomed with open arms by the already-suspicious Battleragers, anyway.
So, it's not because paladins commune.... APs have been Ragers, and they can *cast*. The problem is that even if you don't commune, you can't be simultaneously faithful to the paladin code and to the tablet. Now, if a Battle imm thinks otherwise, then I'm wrong. But according to my interpretation of the Rager credo and paladin code, it's not possible.
