I believe the only reason the pope is even considering the issue is because there are so many people whinnying that they are not allowed to take communion.

Or maybe many clergy are wanting more people in the Church for financial sake

The question I would ask is this: does the Church teach that you have to take communion to be saved?

If you do and these people believe it why would they not also believe the rules concerning taking communion?

And if they don`t have to take communion to be saved what could be the problem unless they just want to whine?

I believe these are just a bunch of whinnying hypocrites who are most likely children of hell who are the same thing regardless if they take communion or not.

If the Pope really believes he is the successor of the Popes who were successor of St Peter who got his teaching from God himself then he must believe God was wrong if he caves in to these people..

Personally I do not take communion and do not believe that will save any one but if I did I would still not take it because it would make a liar out of me.

Paul said examine your self, you can examine your self all day long but can you change your circumstance? some things you may change but others you can not, those things you can not change may prevent you from taking communion.

live with it.

There are many circumstances we get our selves into that can not be changed with out doing more wrong and possibly even worse wrong than what we did to begin with.

We are going to have to live with it and pray that we have enough faith for Gods grace to reach us when the great day comes.

John 6
44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

That an interesting comment. It appears to be a resignation to the sin of despair, with a little bit of presumption thrown in.

Do you believe in Hope? As in Faith, Hope and Charity?
