Perhaps, but a growing appreciation that the Eucharist is the actual Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ let to expressing this by receiving kneeling and on the tongue. The introduction of Communion standing and in the hand has taken away the awe that should accompany it and encouraged the idea that it is ordinary bread and wine. Why should anyone object to kneeling before God and humbly receiving Him on the tongue?

“growing appreciation” is not the example set by Christ at the last supper and the practice for centuries. His example is not up to vote or trends.

I don’t oppose communion on the tongue but the thread’s title is very hyperbolic and just inaccurate. that is my only point.
