re: Do you feel embarrassed and ashamed for not receiving communion?

You can't receive communion if you marry outside of the Catholic church?
From what I remember, if the marriage is contracted by the church or validated by the church then no issues with receiving communion. If they got married in a courthouse or at his church without a dispensation then they cannot receive communion until the marriage is blessed.
My wife and I got married at a courthouse and had a reception a few months later. Some of my cousins made a big deal about not coming to the reception. They said it was because their priest told them that celebrating our marriage is a sin since it wasn't blessed by the church :lol

Ahhh right. But she just has to live her entire life knowing her husband and father of her children are damned to hell. Got it. Muuuuch much much better. Whew.

Nah, id feel far more embarrassed and ashamed if i ever entered that den of deviants, queers and child rapists known as the Catholic Church…… they make the Hollywood stuff look insignificant by comparison .

That’s not a catholic teaching.

Sorry, you’re right. I almost forgot that the previously infallible dogma of Rome on something as fundamental as soteriology changed regarding Ecclesiam nulla salus.
I guess I’ll wait for the next edict from Rome to see where I stand. If I have time.
Eta: maybe my longing and desire and/or invincible ignorance (are those mutually exclusive conditions ?) will nudge me in.
Eta2: I do appreciate the kindler gentler and completely amorphous catechism that gives me a Tillichian loophole! Yisssss!
quote:
Those who, through no fault of their own [what does that mean? Who determines that?], do not know the Gospel of Christ or his Church [are the “ors” inclusive or independent? What is “knowledge” here? Who determines it?], but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart [what does that mean? Who determines that?], and, moved by grace, try in their actions [which actions?] to do his will as they know it [wow—so it’s completely subjective] through the dictates of their conscience [the heart is deceitful above all things]- those too may achieve [ahh works righteousness] eternal salvation.”
Lol. If you don’t like our exclusivity section, let me show you to our universalism section. That may be more to your liking young pilgrim.
Augustine fought Pelagius for what??
Eta3: I pasted directly from the Romanist catechism. So while you can be pissy and downvote, I didn’t make this up.

As a good Catholic, I earned the right to eat that bread from the many hours of catechism.
If you have not, you stay seated.

Not at all. While not a Latin Mass, the church I attend is more traditional (some Latin, Gregorian Chant, some women in veils, pray the rosary prior to Mass, St. Michael prayer after Mass). Many don’t receive the Eucharist weekly. As they shouldn’t if they’re in a stage of mortal sin. It’s the parishes like Christ the King or St. Aloysius where all the congregation participates.

Evidently not.

I am ashamed; however, I am not embarrassed.

My wife and her family is Catholic, and I'm prodestant. I go walk through the communion line with them when I go to service at the Catholic church so that my child and I can get a blessing. Am I sad that you have to be Catholic to get holy communion at the Catholic church? A little. At all the churches I grew up in and still attend, the table is open to everyone, just as Jesus would have done it. I guess that's one of the main beefs between Catholics and Protestants though, along with many others. I also think that prayer should be between you and God, not to some Saint, or a "middle man" Pope. Not allowing the non-Catholics to have communion is another idol symbol that gets in the way of your faith.

I have a friend who’s divorced and still takes communion. I think her priest blessed her marriage.
My husband was Catholic, and received communion when he was hospitalized. There was one (Eucharist minister?) who served me, too, even though I told him I wasn’t Catholic.

This is a prefect example of how people get "We are Saved by Grace Alone" confused with "Religion".

I feel embarrassed I haven't given more of my life and heart to Jesus at 49 years old as a confirmed Roman Catholic. Hopefully that's all about to change since I'm going to an ACTS retreat next month! Need to fresh my faith and be a better man!

I will never let anyone make me feel ashamed for my religious practices. I’m happy being me and nobody is going to tell me how to be.
