Note they went right for the jugular—receiving communion directly on the tongue and while kneeling. Receiving it in the hand like they are handing out potato chips is and has always been such a mamby-pamby, effeminate posture for receiving the body, blood, soul and divinity of our Lord, Jesus Christ, both Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly instantly recognized that it is not worth satirizing.

Just wait till recent revert Shia LaBeouf gets a hold of these two. Particularly his former Transformers co-star Fox. It’s going to be: Straight to the woodshed with both of them.

Receiving it [Communion] in the hand like they are handing out potato chips is and has always been such a mamby-pamby, effeminate posture for receiving the body, blood, soul and divinity of our Lord, Jesus Christ...

Yet at the Last Supper the Lord Himself "broke bread and gave it to them..." with no mention of them kneeling and refusing to touch it with their hands. They had met for Passover so it was unleavened bread like the Jews still serve at Passover.

...the 4th century Gentile theologian Cyril of Jerusalem left a more detailed and ritualistic instruction for Communion...Cyril’s instructions emphasize technique:

"Approaching (Communion)…come not with your palms extended and stretched flat nor with your fingers open. But make your left hand as if a throne for the right, and hollowing your palm receive the body of Christ saying after it, Amen..."
