[quote=Anonymous][quote]In the 80’s it was common place to refuse communion if you were divorced, and absolutely if you remarry.

Are you even Catholic? His old are you that you do not know this?[/quote]

I doubt you are. I'm Catholic and older. Divorced Catholics haven't been denied communion unless they remarry outside the Church, i.e., without obtaining an annulment. Even the link you posted doesn't say that. It's if you are divorced AND remarried civilly that you are  denied communion. I have an annotated Catholic New Testament printed in 1941 that specifically says that. It is the version that was given to Catholic American soldiers during World War II.

Indeed, the link posted makes this clear. https://www.catholicweekly.com.au/can-divorced-and-remarried-people-receive-communion/ It talks about 
Catholics who are divorced AND remarried civilly.

Please note if you are divorced and obtain a Church annulment you can remarry in the Church. In the US, you cannot obtain a Church annulment unless you are legally divorced first. I know that because I tried to get an annulment before I was legally divorced and learned that in the US, that's not possible.

Being divorced is NOT a sin. Getting married outside the Church is.
