We've been beating this subject to death @ kneelingcatholic.blogspot.com !<br /><br />Anyway the main point I see is the conflict with Redemptionis Sacramentum, CDWDS 2004. <br /><br />Some Bishops have banned Communion on the tongue and that goes directly against the CDWDS regulation.<br /><br />K.

Too me it shows some lack of faith in the Eucharist as the real Body and Blood of Christ. When I think of those who have given their life rather than deny the real presence or to defame the Eucharist in any way, I will risk a flu chance.Gretahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11277481992746685122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19680942.post-29626628904172425032009-05-04T02:23:00.000-04:002009-05-04T02:23:00.000-04:00Crimson Wife--

Funny thing is people did it anyway.<br /><br />I think we should still distribute the cup and then we should have the EMs use tongs to distribute the body of Christ. That would at least be scientifically sound. Pastors are in a tough spot here.god googlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08406526986427583673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19680942.post-49142857323792608732009-05-04T02:16:00.000-04:002009-05-04T02:16:00.000-04:00My oldest made her First Communion today and I was...My oldest made her First Communion today and I was very disappointed that she did not receive the Blood. IMHO our priest should've pushed for a dispensation to the diocese ban just for the communicants. The rest of us wouldn't care about skipping the Blood but it's a big deal to be receiving it for the very first time.Crimson Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03254830856234479999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19680942.post-38386753201002580102009-04-30T20:22:00.000-04:002009-04-30T20:22:00.000-04:00Exactly my point, thanks,Exactly my point, thanks,god googlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08406526986427583673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19680942.post-45382541768505161022009-04-30T19:22:00.000-04:002009-04-30T19:22:00.000-04:00Oh, and they've done research and the actual recei...Oh, and they've done research and the actual receiving of the Blood from the cup is the lowest way to pass bacteria to others...but it is the handling of the cup that people can pick up things...they don't purify the body of the cup, just where peoples' lips go.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09976032424505414385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19680942.post-38323513517066419802009-04-30T19:21:00.000-04:002009-04-30T19:21:00.000-04:00That's a lot more lenient than the Fort Worth Dioc...That's a lot more lenient than the Fort Worth Diocese. Here they are advising everyone against any bodily contact during the sign of peace, we will not have the cup for Holy Communion, and people are highly encouraged to not receive on the tongue. It makes sense because we have had at least one confirmed case and several that might be the swine flu...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09976032424505414385noreply@blogger.com
