Don’t move the goalposts.

Priests are said to be able to call Christ down and confect Him in the eucharist.

Non-Catholics do NOT make that claim of their ministers, nor do our pastors handle the elements and lay them on our tongue.

Nor did you answer the question.

Why is it OK for a priest in mortal sin to serve communion but the laity in mortal sin not be able to receive it?

So its ok for you to take a piece of bread from a minister who has not washed his hands after raping a little boy? Because that piece of bread is not the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ?

I pray my priest is holy and just. Of course, you want to believe that all priests are evil because you believe that the Church itself is evil. In that, we will always disagree.
