Why not communion to anyone in a state of mortal sin? Why not communion to non-Catholics? (I’m against any change, of course.)
That is an interesting question. If Jesus came for sinners, if communion washes away sins, performs miracles of grace, then it would seem more efficacious than all the Holy water and rosaries in the world. And yet, the sacred must be kept from the profane, except in the humanity of our Lord. go figure. That said, I adore.
The post Vatican II Church (under the New Canon Law of 1983)already allows Non-Catholics to receive communion under certain circumstances:

Contrast it with the Canon Law of 1917:
Canon 731.2
It is forbidden that the Sacraments of the Church be ministered to heretics and schismatics, even if they ask for them and are in good faith, unless beforehand, rejecting their errors, they are reconciled with the Church.
