Rethinking Communion in the Hand

*I do not own the rights to any of the music running in the background, nor do I claim these rights*

This video is geared towards catholics. Others may find it interesting- but it does NOT pertain to non-Catholics.

This does not even address the abuses that take place. It is simply about so-called "legitimate" practice of communion in the hand among catholics. This practice is now normative in some places, but its was never meant to be this way.

Latin-rite Catholics are afforded RIGHTS. Our RIGHTS as catholics entitle us the reception of communion according to the rite of our baptism. The actual latin rite's normative practice is communion kneeling and on the tongue - this can never be forbidden.

Bishop Juan Rodolfo Laise, San Luis, Argentina, 1997:
With Communion in the hand, a miracle would be required during each distribution of Communion to avoid some Particles from falling to the ground or remaining in the hand of the faithful. Let us speak clearly: whoever receives Communion in the mouth not only follows exactly the tradition handed down but also the wish expressed by the last Popes and thus avoids placing himself in the occasion of committing a sin by negligently dropping a fragment of the Body of Christ.

Yes: 597

No: 1,233

Yes, but with reservations: 315

Invalid votes: 20

2. Is it your wish that this new rite be first tried in small communities, with the consent of the bishop?

Yes: 751

No: 1,215

Invalid votes, 70

3. Do you think that the faithful will receive this new rite gladly, after a proper catechetical preparation?

@1rams123 I think that we should really reconsider receiving communion in the hand. My deacon doesn't think its necessary but I do... I'm getting confirmed tonight and I was debating whether or not to receive it in the hand, I'm going by my conscience and taking it directly on the tongue. This video really helped me out, special thanks to 1rams123, God bless you. To all of you who want to change everything, Jesus doesn't change, people do. BE CAREFUL!!

@tyrussell2011

Congratulations on making the decision to stand up for the respect due to Jesus Christ! Now, maybe we should consider kneeling for Him too ;-)

MrJeffhvass said: I am a Christian Catholic who happens to open my heart & mind to think about what is taught. I agree & believe 99% what the church teaches. However, many catholics don't follow church teachings since it would violate their moral consiousness. Another good Catholic teaching. Dissent in the Church has lived for 2000 years. Thanks God for Luther, & other Godly men & women who have dissented. I can comment all I want but you will stop it because u can't part with the idea of disst

[1rams123]

@MrJeffhvass - You've been blocked on account of ur heretical willful dissent with the church. I Pray u will reconsider ur position & repent of the intellectual sin of pride & heresy which can damn one to hell for eternity.

RE: "..since it would violate their moral consiousness" - such catholics need to modify their consciences to conform to the church.

RE: "Thanks God for Luther, & other Godly men" - Luther was a menace of a man- he broke his sacred vows to God & took a nun for his concubine.

[MrJeffhvass]

Jesus truths are universal. Cathlic tradition and teaching will change with time which is good. Catholic traditions need to change with time as led by the Holy Spirit. All believers are part of the univeral church. I am a believer in Jesus first and then I practice what Jesus taught as practiced by the Chruch and what my mind, concious and prayer teach and guide me to follow. Yes, I dont follow all the church teaching since some are not historical and valid. Yes, I am a cafateria catholic.

@MrJeffhvass

Re: "Yes, I am a cafateria catholic"

If you did not know that you dissent with the church, then you would have no sin. But since you do know, then u are not a catholic at all, but a heretic.

U have just lost the privileged of being able to comment in this video.

I would suggest watching my video entitled "Calling all catholics". I wish u well in ur true journey to the Catholic faith. What saves us is having faith in Jesus and his Church, and NOT in our own judgement.

I never thought about that. Nice video

"Wherever I go in the whole world, the thing that makes me the saddest is watching people receive Communion in the hand." Bl. Mother Therese.

"There is an apostolic letter on the existence of a special valid permission for this [Communion in the hand]. But I tell you that I am not in favor of this practice, nor do I recommend it." - His Holiness Pope John Paul II

Even the Pope is against it. The Holy sacrifice has been replaced by a meal. I for one will KNEEL BEFORE MY KING AND GOD!

@1rams123 I would love to do that if I wouldn't take up much time and stick out like a sore thumb. I'm soon going to be able to do that because I'm moving soon and am going to start attending the Trendantine mass.

your voice sounds like its echoing through a tunnel. Could you do it in a way that doesn't sound like your reading also?

Communion in the hand deceitfully began by the bishops in Holland, unknown to Pope Paul VI. After he learned this, he called ALL bishops to Rome to discuss this matter. The USA bishops (75%) voted DOWN for communion in the hand. The destroyers of our Church consisting of higher up clergy, modernists, marxists revolutionaries and innovators. Popes warned us !

RE: "I don't question the teaching. I question why you go to such degrees about a few crumbs. I am not quetioning the real presence of Jesus."

This is a contradiction. If u really believed- u would want done what was possible & reasonable to prevent sacrilege. In certain situations such as war & heavy persecution, these standards may be temporarily practically lowered & they have been in the past- but the ideal remains the same. Our Lord is in every fragment & is sadly forgotten.
