You ' re right . I guess I just didn ' t think it would be quite like this . Maybe they ' ll loosen up once they actually see that I ' m doing better . Thanks for listening to me ! <| sep |> He ' s been plenty clear , just not according to the frame some people want the question framed in . Because Francis believes that ' s the wrong frame to begin with , so why should he answer a question within that frame ' s terms . If you ' re looking for an answer to can the divorced and remarried living more uxori without an annulment receive communion ? you ' re not going to get a Yes or No type answer because that ' s a bad frame , but Francis ' s answer is clear enough Nothing categorically prevents them IF the usual criteria for reception of communion are otherwise met .
