[Faith-talk] Question out there

[Debby Phillips]

Within the Catholic Church, if you have commited a mortal sin, you are not supposed to receive Communion. I think that many churches have some sort of similar policy, and I believe that it is a very scary thing to receive Communion if you yourself knowingly do this because it is God we are accountale too.

If you can't pick and choose the Scriptures you like to create doctrine, why do believers feel it's OK to pick and choose which sins to hate or withhold Eucharist/communion from? A rich guy who cheats on his taxes and his wife shouldn't be able to have communion anymore than someone who is gay/lesbian but do you send in law abiding otherwise. I mean, greed and gluttony are two also mentioned in the Bible but we still get fat people communion and everything. Isn't this being judge mental? I thought judgment was up to God, not us.
