In 2018, then-CDWDS prefect Cardinal Robert Sarah criticized reception of Holy Communion in the hand as part of a “diabolical attack” on faith in the Eucharist and praised receiving Communion on the tongue.

“Over 20 percent of respondents were exclusive Traditional Latin Mass attendees, and another 43 percent stated that they periodically attend it.”

So it wouldn’t be very representative of all Catholics.

Read the title. It says, "faithful".

Non-practicing Catholics are not "faithful".

"Catholics" who believe in "a woman's right to choose" aren't really Catholic.

I also want a return of sacred music.

That was mentioned:

A majority also said that the use of extraordinary ministers, replacement of sacred music with contemporary music, ending ad orientem worship, removing altar rails, failing to hold Eucharistic events like adoration and processions, the decline of beauty in church architecture and liturgy, loss of silence, and the clerical abuse crisis have had “major” or “greatest” impact.

I’d love to believe that this survey is on the level, but I don’t.

It takes the priest five to ten minutes to have communion to the stupid communion distributors while we wait The time it would take the priest to distribute communion to the congregation is spent preparing the Eucharistic ministers

Tgen some lady wearing no sleeves goes to the back of the curch. She can’t give communion without touching my hand.

A priest knows how to give communion on the tongubwithour touching me and everyone else

Eucharistic ministers were established to distribute communion on naval vessels. They turned it into women pushing their sleeveless arms up to the altar

And stop with the Girl Scout music in satanic time signatures to feminize the church

Men are supposed to chant girls out campfire music and retain some modicum of masculinity. No

And the stupid sign of peace. I’m not turning around when the consecrated Eucharist is on the altar

And the priest sits after he’s done distributing communion but the consecrated host is still being distributed. The Eucharistic ministers are out there still in communion and the priest is sitting

Henobviously is not aware the Eucharist is the true presence otherwise how could he sit

Every once of testosterone has been drained from the room.

“Catholics” who believe in “a woman’s right to choose” aren’t really Catholic.“

That is absolutely incorrect

Every Catholic is baptized in the Catholic Church. Most have received the sacraments

These people are Catholic until the day they die. Whether they want to be or not.

They will be judged by God as Catholics. When the promote abortion it is much worse for them as they know they know it is a mortal sin.

If you mean Catholics or others should not assume that these people are acting in accordance with Catholicism then that’s right. But they are Catholic.

To me, lack of communion patens held under the chins of the faithful at Holy Communion is a red flag that there is a lack of belief in the Real Presence.

No argument here.

I’m speaking out of annoyance from a recent episode. I will address the priest directly and withhold judgement

And Christ broke bread and passed it around. I don’t think he worried about how it would be ingested.

The apostles were the first "priests/bishops". Christ invited no others to His Last Supper, not even His own Mother.

Why not go all the way, reverse VatII, return to the Sacred Latin Mass allowing many to return to the Church. If not, many Churchs will close here like in Italy.
