To NYJ:
No, I'm not advocating reception of the Eucharist while in a state of mortal sin.
But I think it would be wrong for OB to just stop going to Church. I think his best bet would be to talk to a priest, outside of Confession, and then perhaps the discussion would LEAD to Confession. With ANYTHING that you do, the circumstances must be considered, and it is not our place as laity on a message board to say, "This is a mortal sin." The state of sin on anyone's soul is between him and God. And a priest is the one to best guide OB and Mrs OB.
Peace be with you,
