Yes, there probably was more people in the church who had mortal sin on their soul and received communion.

Why did they receive? They really don’t know that it is a definite no-no or they make up their own rules (which will most likely send them to hell — if they do not change, repent and change their life). Obedience is in the Bible on just about every page.
