Scott, I met a man who had been divorced when he was still a teenager, or early 20's. He took all the blame for what happened. He married again and has been with his wife for over forty years. He couldn't get annulment and married civilly. I did their marriage forty years on. That guy went to Mass every week in those forty years and never took communion. Obviously, he can now. 

A forty year sentence for being a stupid young man. He described to me how he felt over all those years. The Eucharist wasn't exactly the core of his being as a teenager. But it's importance grew on him as he faced life's joys and sadnesses. Parents funerals, family weddings, big parish celebrations - no Eucharist. And a big, red arrow pointing at him in the congregation.

No person who actually believes in the Eucharist would be capable of banning another person from receiving it. Burke and his friends really don't believe in Jesus. The difference between him and Trump is that Trump is honest about himself.
