Clericalism at Work: Nuncio Assaults Woman

Archbishop Bruno Musaró, 74, Apostolic Nuncio in Costa Rica, behaved like a schoolboy during a Eucharistic celebration for Benedict XVI at San José Cathedral on 4 January.

He pushed a woman around who had knelt down to receive communion. The Italian-born Musarò forced her to stand up and then assaulted her by pushing her palms apart.

He repeated his assault with a second woman and refused to allow several other worshippers to receive Communion.

Adding insult to injury, the schoolboy had his secretary draft a statement on 11 January affirming that "at no time" did he intend to "offend anyone" but "appreciate the devotion and zeal in receiving communion" [sic].

Assuming his audience to be dimwits, he said he was motivated by the "liturgical reform" of Vatican II, which "encourages the idea of a pilgrim people on a journey to meet the Lord." So why didn't Musarò walk around while distributing Communion?

Redemptionis Sacramentum 91 of 2004 forbids denying Communion to a faithful who wishes to receive it kneeling. But the Vatican has a long tradition of saying one thing and doing the opposite. This is called dishonesty.

Sancte Michael Archangele, défende nos in proelio
Baltimore Catechism page 216, Question 373 How should we prepare ourselves for holy communion? (c) When actually receiving communion, we should raise the head and extend the tongue. We should swallow the sacred host as soon as possible, not allowing it to dissolve in the mouth.
