But, IMO, if you are going to have such persons, part of the responsibility that goes along with that necessarily would include the obligation to refuse Holy Communion in exceptional cases.
Would you expect a EMHC to hand over the Sacred Species to someone wearing a "Satanist and Proud" button on their lapel?
But, like I said, when you consider the tremendous responsibility this engenders, it becomes clear why EMHC use is required to be truly "extraordinary," and not habitual. Redemptionis Sacramentum even instructs EMHCs to resign if they are used habitually. The problem we are discussing is part of the reason why we should not have laymen distributing Holy Communion in any but the most exceptional and extraordinary circumstances.
Excellent post.
There is no "problem." EEMs distribute the Eucharist, period. And they act at the direction of the pastor of the parish.
You both are conflating something into an issue that simply is not.
If an EEM is bothered by giving the Eucharist to Catholics he feels should not receive, he should STEP DOWN!
