Well when Jesus established the communion at the Last Supper he said “do this in rememberance of me” he did not say “do this in rememberance of the Jews” or “do this in rememberance of the Catholic Church” or “you can’t do this if you are divorced and remarried”.

I’m Catholic and I have for many years watched the contortions the Catholic church will go through to grant annulments so people who were married for years and had multiple children could again take communion. There is a hypocrisy in the church about communion.

Don't disagree with you there. There are people who are divorced through no fault of their own because their spouse cheated/walked out on them. But they don't wish to put themselves or their children through the ordeal of an annulment so they abstain. Or they leave.

Meanwhile we serve Communion to Nancy Pelosi each week, and she's never met an abortion she would not vote for.
