I think the conversion is likely a childish rebellion to stick it to her family. If this was my sibling, about to use my kid’s funeral to pull an attention grabbing stunt, I would hire security to bar her from entering the church. Not today, the day of my child’s funeral to act out like this.

OP here. I owe you nothing about why I'm converting. You know nothing about my desire to. But spoiler alert, it has nothing to do with "sticking it to my family." What a weird take.

And you seem SO confident I'm going to get up on the altar and talk about myself that you'd probably bet on it.

Well, let me know when you do so I can make a counter bet. You are the odd one, friend..

NP. You are conducting yourself very oddly for someone who has a close relative with a dead toddler. It's almost enough for us to suspect trolling.

Does that mean she should be forced to take communion? Let’s stick to the subject.

It’s a small sacrifice given the loss her family is enduring. It’s a bit of unleavened bread. But if’s curious that suddenly it’s a big issue when OP says she hasn’t been practicing for years.

I guess you don’t understand what it is like to be someone who actually takes religion seriously. Catholic communion is not something you do to be polite, like using the right fork. It’s a big deal.

I’m pretty sure everyone would understand. Unless you think God is vengeful and petty.

You think forcing a Jew to take Communion is OK? Seriously? Are you listening to yourself? (Not OP btw). Yes God would understand. No, unless you literally fancy yourself the Grand Inquisitor, do you have the right to force that on someone.

OP isn’t a Jew.

OP is in the middle of converting to Judaism AND actual Catholic rules would not permit her to take communion.

So, not a Jew. Got it. And these rules are not as cut and dry as you pretending.

Keep digging that hole.

Is that you OP? Still pretending to be a lapsed Catholic?

No I am not OP. I just happen to have family that would conceivably try to pull something similar. OP has gotten the advice she needed about how to be discreet. Now everyone is piling onto her because of some misguided (and wholly misinformed) view about Catholicism.

I’ll leave you with this - trying to pressure a Jew to take communion is a very bad look!

Interesting that this is where you draw the line, and it’s not a bad look to be a selfish ass at a child’s funeral by making an issue of taking or not taking Communion. OP isn’t content to just cross her arms to get a blessing and claims she never even knew that existed. Really? Which is complete BS because it’s what every child does until First Communion. Which just makes it more obvoius OP is trolling.

I think the people insisting a JEW take communion (or any one at all) are the a-holes in this scenario.

So if you identify as a Jew you are a Jew? What would your rabbi say to that?

Do you think this is a convincing line of argument? Because it is not. At all.

OP has not converted. So what does that make her?

If you convert you don't require a bloodline.

Your mother will judge you for being a Jew. Let her start now. You won't be a Christmas and Easter Catholic, you ARE a non-Catholic.

Can you talk to a priest who can help your parents deal with their angst over your no longer being Catholic?

I think you cross your arms at the rail, not goin up the aisle.

Actually I said multiple times I plan to cross my arms at the front. So..

And also, my memory sucks so I legitimately don't remember doing this as a kid. Don't know what to tell you there. But I'm grateful other kind strangers brought it up to me.

Good plan OP. If you can bring a friend or partner to support you even better. An ally to pull you away if your parents start into you.

OP here.

As some have picked up, I am trying to strike a balance between two religious worlds, while also trying to be respectful to my sister most especially during this incredibly difficult time for her.

Unfortunately my parents, specifically my mother has done exactly what someone else said, like "so and so didn't get communion" and "they are C&E Catholics" and totally judge them for it all.

So I hate that I have to think this way to try and ward off my own mother and father..

I do plan to go up with arms crossed because I feel as though sitting back in the pew would be much more glaring and would probably incite questioning later.

OP converted for a man. 100%

I think the conversion is likely a childish rebellion to stick it to her family. If this was my sibling, about to use my kid’s funeral to pull an attention grabbing stunt, I would hire security to bar her from entering the church. Not today, the day of my child’s funeral to act out like this.

OP here. I owe you nothing about why I'm converting. You know nothing about my desire to. But spoiler alert, it has nothing to do with "sticking it to my family." What a weird take.

And you seem SO confident I'm going to get up on the altar and talk about myself that you'd probably bet on it.

Well, let me know when you do so I can make a counter bet. You are the odd one, friend..

NP. You are conducting yourself very oddly for someone who has a close relative with a dead toddler. It's almost enough for us to suspect trolling.

Does that mean she should be forced to take communion? Let’s stick to the subject.

It’s a small sacrifice given the loss her family is enduring. It’s a bit of unleavened bread. But if’s curious that suddenly it’s a big issue when OP says she hasn’t been practicing for years.

Yea, this. The bottom line is it wouldn’t kill OP to take communion at a toddler funeral and no priest, rabbi, minister or satan worshipper would fault her for it. She just wants to be difficult. And then we have the always tolerated anti-Catholics on DCUM who are happy to egg on another hater to stick it to the Catholic family in even the saddest and most tragic of circumstances.

Well as a matter of fact, some rabbis would be unhappy about it - and a priest that knew about the situation is actually supposed to deny her communion.

I guess you are just another poorly catechized Catholic, maybe a convert yourself. Maybe pick up a book about your religion.

The rabbi who would be a jerk about a baby’s funeral isn’t one worthy of respect. And a priest doesn’t expect someone to be perfect for Communion. Have you ever talked to one in person?

lol keep showing your ignorance.
