Hahaha - sorry, but Catholics already use the Eucharist as a delimiter.

Any Protestant church will clearly state that ‘all are welcome’, but not so much the Catholic Church: only those initiated, thank you.

If Catholics want to limit participation only to adherents, that is purely within their purview…

This is absolutely untrue. Many Protestant churches deny communion to people for a variety of reasons

Don't be obtuse when they say all are welcome, Anyone can step inside of a Church for mass. Anyone.

Yes, the Eucharist has a very small set of limits, and ANYONE can take it as long as they adhere, accept Christ and the Church and it's teaching, be in a state of grace and baptized. Those are the only requirements.

That does effectively mean all are welcome.
