I'll bet they do it eventually. Can you think of a better way to increase the rolls.

No way. I'll take that bet. You know we Catholics need to get our Communion fix. You can't eat a piece of bread online. Never happen.

(None of this is to say that televised Masses aren't good for those who can't get to one otherwise. But they are no substitute for actually participating for real. Those who can't make it to Mass because of infirmities can get "Communion calls" where the Sacrament is brought to them.)

Why not? If He can turn into a piece of bread He surely could inhabit bandwidth.

Here's another one. If you are not going to receive communion, is it better to stay home and watch the mass on EWTN, or to go to your local clown mass?
