Why would any non-catholic consider converting to Catholicism if they're already being given (sacrilegiously) the Blessed Sacrament in their present state?
The people giving Communion and the people taking it are muddleheads.
I know a man who believes completely in the entire Catholic Faith, but won’t become a Catholic because the Church does not practice inter-communion. (He’s a Methodist.)
I didn’t argue with him, but it’s totally baffling to me where he gets this CERTAINTY that the Church should practice inter-communion. I mean, WHERE does this knowledge he thinks he has come from? How could the Church be right about everything else, and wrong about this single thing?
Maybe because they know that the pageantry and love they feel in a Spanish Catholic pilgrimage church may not be available to them when they return home.
