At daily masses, I have seen half the congregation swarm the sanctuary to be E.M.'s. I am always left with the impression that the priest is too busy to be bothered with distributing communion. The quicker we can get it distributed, the quicker we can get out of here. The whole idea diminishes belief in the real presence and the holy orders of the priest. It has done more harm than good.

ROFLMAO!! I'm sorry but that reminds me of this post DYING PRIEST which addresses the effects Vatican II had on the clergy. In an instant, the sanctity of the priest was converted into an odious task.

Where is our church headed? Can it be redirected? Is it too late?
