Mother Teresa, God rest your soul, and Fr. Rutledge. Wouldn't it be more respectful to cusp one's hands in a manner as to make a 'throne' to receive the Holy Eucharist adoringly rather than receiving by tongue....In Sir.28, 12-26 is this not what the tongue is capable of doing?
How about a dissertation on what the hand is capable of? Would you make the same argument to St. Thomas Aquinas and attempt to refute Summa Theologica?
