In February 2018, Marx was at it again. This time Marx announced a proposal to allow Lutheran spouses of Catholics to receive the Eucharist while remaining Protestant.
At first, it appeared the Vatican would junk the idea. In a letter dated May 25, Vatican doctrine chief Luis Ladaria Ferrer, at that time an archbishop, revealed Pope Francis was curbing Marx's proposal. But then, in one of the Pope's infamous in-flight press conferences, he told reporters the decision to admit Protestant spouses of Catholics to Holy Communion should rest with individual bishops, not with national episcopal conferences.
