To: Be Careful

According to the article, the divorced and remarried - not garden variety venial sins. Remarrying after divorce is considered a mortal sin in the Catholic Church.

However, this cardinal also mentions the divorced. I always thought divorce alone didn’t preclude someone from Communion. If your spouse flees for selfish reasons and divorces you, are you really living in sin? This doesn’t make any sense.

I dunno. This is part of why I only really ID as Catholic depending on the day. Francis is a commie moron, and he makes it really hard to understand what being Catholic means anymore, if it means anything at all. He gives a wink and a nod to all the SJW groups, and barely speaks any more than the perfunctory minimum on matters of gay marriage and abortion. I’m looking forward to see who the next pope will be before I decide if I’m ever coming back.

I agree. It makes absolutely no sense.
