Can a catholic receive communion in Greek orthodox church?
No they cannot. The Orthodox Chruch and Catholic Church are not in communion with one another and are not able to receive the Eucharist at other churches legitmately. -UPDATE- In the past few years this practice has been changed. Orthodox believers can now receive communion in a Roman Catholic Church and Roman Catholics can now receive communion in an Orthodox Church, however either should only be done in a time of necessity. Great strides are being made in bringing the two churches back together again as it was in the beginning. Catholics will give communion to an Orthodox but an Orthodox is not supposed to take communion anywhere but in the Orthodox Church. I have yet to see communion given to a Catholic in an Orthodox church. If you are not baptised Orthodox you are not given the Holy Mystery in the Orthodox Church. In my church, the Priest will not give communion to anyone unless they have had confession, and will certainly not give communion to ANYONE, not even a Catholic, if they are not Orthodox. It is not allowed.

When did St. Paul realize he was a Christian?
Probably after he was knocked to the ground on the way to Damascus.

In Christianity only believers are baptised so during that time he must have become a Christian.
Is it a mortal sin when somebody receives Holy Communion and they are not married by the Catholic Church?
.Catholic AnswerIt is a serious sin (mortal) and sacrilege for anyone to receive Holy Communion when they are not in a state of grace (i.e. that are in a state of serious sin). A Catholic is morally bound to be married in the Church by a member of the clergy, so he would objectively be committing a mortal sin if he married outside the Church without permission from his Bishop. If he continues in this state and receives Holy Communion, he would actually be committing several mortal sins each and every time he received Holy Communion. Sacrilege is a very serious sin, which is committed anytime someone receives Holy Communion when they are not in a state of grace, St. Paul warned about this most vehemently in the Bible when he said this was the reason that many were sick and some had died - because they had received Holy Communion without recognizing the Body (i.e., they didn't believe it was really the Body and Blood of Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ). Another serious sin - scandal is committed anytime that someone sees you receiving Holy Communion while you are living in such a relationship. This, if anything, is more serious than sacrilege, as you are leading another into sin. Bottom line? One should never receive Holy Communion unless you have been to confession recently, and certainly not if you are aware of serious unconfessed sin.
