KNEELING FOR COMMUNION

A reader sent in a link to Roman Catholic Blog where you can read the reflection of Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith, Secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship, on the subject. In summary he is calling for a return to the practice of kneeling and receiving on the tongue. He makes some good points, but he leaves one out. If we return to kneeling and receiving on the tongue, we will have to dispense with EMs in church. If EMs continue to distribute communion, touching the sacred Host in the process, while we, the remainder of the laity, and not permitted to touch the Host, we will have set up a de facto upper class among the laity. Not a good idea.
