Of course they should be allowed to receive communion.

Sometimes one party to a divorce is completely innocent. The Bible also allows divorce in cases of adultry.

In practice, I've been to many Catholic churches and never asked if I were divorced before taking Communion. Or even if I were a Catholic for that matter. Obviously in my home church they know I am not divorced and am Catholic. But I really think on the practical, weekly Mass level, you are taken at your word when you go up for Communion. God knows what's in your heart! And divorce is such a tough thing in a family, everybody hurts. Especially if you go through spiritual counseling you should still be allowed Communion. We are all sinners!

Cardinal Marx : " We are going to see that the issue is completely discussed" Should the Catholic Church allow divorced and remarried to be re-admitted to communion? No, says Gerhard Ludwig Müller, Head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith at the Vatican.
End of discussion.

I love how people that claim to be Christian have no understanding of freewill whatsoever
