** Roman Catholics seem to divorce and remarry without any punishment I’ve heard of from their church.**
And the source of this information, or is it your opinion? Is it just hearsay — third party?
Or did you hear this from a priest or a bishop?
**Communion appears to be served to everyone and I have seen not so much as an inquiry about anyone’s faithful obedience prior to its being served.**
If someone receives Holy Communion unworthily, since it is the Body and Blood of Christ, they will have to answer for this sin — and it is not a small sin!!!
“And the source of this information, or is it your opinion? Is it just hearsay — third party?”
I’ve known plenty of Catholics in my lifetime. None seemed to get any grief for it.
I would like to see the RC Church enforce these standards, so don’t assume I am the enemy here.
I used to attend RC churches and get communion without anyone inquiring so much as my name (I didn’t know any better). I know for a fact many of us going were living in sin, etc.
Furthermore we see publicly the very unfaithful “Catholics” like the Kennedys, Pelosis, etc. getting away with literal murder and treated like “good Catholics-” very insulting to the truly faithful Catholic IMO.
I heard from another poster that Sebelius finally got reprimanded, good for them, and I hope that becomes a trend.

I agree and would like to see MUCH stricter enforcement. Souls are at stake with eternal consequences. In my experiences it is treated very lightly at least by those dispensing.
