[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm in an invalid marriage as my husband was previously married.  He's not Catholic so he's in not hurry to go through the annulment process. I still go to Mass but I don't take communion.  [/quote]

Good, you'd be breaking the rules of the church if you did - and turned away at the communion rail if the priest knew your situation.  It's good that you know your place within the church and are not one of those people who approach the rail knowing that they are not in a state of grace.[/quote]

Anyone can go up during communion in a Catholic church. You just cross your arms, bow your head and receive a blessing without receiving the eucharist. [/quote]

That's for people who know they are not in a state of grace. Some of them, if they know the priest, know better than to expect communion when the priest knows they are sinners (e.g. using birth control, having gay sex).   Others can go into strange churches and take communion even though they are not in a state of grace because they know the priest won't know about their sins. [/quote]
