pope = rules
rules = communion restrictions
communion = only realy worth something when done according to the rules
mass = only realy worth something when done according to the rules

Because it is a Catholic communion, and you are not Catholic?
(ie...Because it is a Catholic Ritual, and you have not been properly (indoctrinated) "invested" in Ritual Catholicism)
You do not have the right, because you have not been through the "rites".

3.14, in some funny way, your answer really knocked me out!

ALright, here we go:

Unlike protestant churches who believe communion is taken just as a symbol, the Catholic Church believes in what we call transubstantiation, meaning that wafer of unleavened bread actually turns in to the body and blood of Jesus Christ. So, in order to take Communion at a Catholic Church you must be a Catholic who believes this takes place. If you don't believe it and take communion you're making light of the whole reason the Catholics take communion. Hope that helps.

My short list of possible reasons:

- you're not Catholic
- you insulted his mother

Actually it is very important in a lot of the protestant churches also....Before a communion service, we are always read the scriptures, and have prayer because to partake of this sacrament unworthily is treading on dangerous territory...We also believe that the bread represents His broken body and the wine (we use grape juice) is the blood..........So there Rheff, see you don't have the monopoly on Jesus (just joking with that last remark) WE do take communion very seriously.

I think that everyone should receive instruction and not just participate without knowing the reason we believe and hold this sacred.

Ouch

I fail to see the connection. If i love God and you love God, and Jesus gave us both communion...we believe a little different, but how does belief cheapen something? And no it is not a matter of the heart in the sense that i do not pay enough tribute to it. If belief in transubstantiation was so needed to not cheapen communion, then i feel that someone in the Bible would have elaborated more upon the subject.

thanks for the input,
Arrow

Charity, I did not mean to insinuate that ya'll didn't take it seriously, I jsut didn't know enough about what ya'll believe to comment more on it. I don't like commenting on things I know nothing about (unlike some people on this forum).

your failure to see the connection is the reason that you are not permitted to recieve communion.

Dude, who gave the pope the authority to deny something Jesus established for all believers? According to what you have said, communion is now Catholic not Christian, and what other Christians practice is communion to a lesser extent. I fail to see the connection because there is no connection to be made.
