The point is that there are place where the Church reaches out to non-Catholics.

The Church has always reached out to non-Catholics and encouraged them to join the one, true Church. But it has never condoned giving Holy Communion, sacrilegiously, to non-Catholics.

I beg to differ with you as I saw first hand what happened in Pamplona, Burges, Leon and Santiago Spain Cathedrals. From having read volumes about the Camino pilgrimage, I can also tell you that others have also reported the same thing in many pilgrim journals that I have read prior to my Camino.

I will further tell you that the Mass in Pamplona was one of the most inclusive and moving ones I have attended. It was about how we are all pilgrims in this life and how and what pilgrimage should mean.

You may be sure of your beliefs, but I have seen with my own eyes otherwise, I have sat at dinners with other pilgrims talking about their experiences and heard them tell me their own stories. I was amazed at the religious diversity of the pilgrims. I had dinner on the Camino with Buddhists, Muslims, Anglicans, atheists, and Catholics.

Words and actions are two totally different things, whether you want to believe it or not.
