I haven't much time, Dennis. But in a nutshell, as it were, they would prefer Francis lift the ban prohibiting/precluding divorced German Catholics from receiving Communion than lifting it for divorced Lutherans (or non-divorced or ex-Catholics). Rome won't let them (fearing heavy criticism from the Eastern European Churches). So why should they fight for Lutheran inclusion/intercommunion when their own current Catholics are denied access to Holy Communion (owing to their divorced status). Bye
