[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well your relative would have hated my college priest who allowed me to take communion at mass as a Lutheran. It wasn’t about man’s rules for him. It was about my relationship with Christ that he was happy to help foster. So Jesus of him. [/quote] There are narrow circumstances in which non-Catholics are permitted to receive communion in a Catholic Church, if they share the Catholic belief in the Real Presence (via transubstantiation) and cannot reasonably access their own ministers. To the extent those circumstances do not apply, a priest distributing the Eucharist to a non-Catholic would be following his own (i.e., “man’s”) rules, not the regulations of the divinely instituted Church.
