Portland Archdiocese, Oregon, reaffirmed on Monday that receiving Holy Communion on the tongue cannot be banished.
Two physicians, one of them an immunologist for Oregon State, told the archdiocese that the reception of Holy Communion on the tongue or in the hand pose “a more or less equal risk,”
“The risk of touching the tongue and passing the saliva on to others is obviously a danger however the chance of touching someone’s hand is equally probable and one’s hands have a greater exposure to germs.”
The archdiocese reacted after parishioners were denied Holy Communion on the tongue.
Lay distributors of Communion who "feel uncomfortable" to distribute Communion should be excused from this ministry, the archdiocese announced.

"what matters is that people actually receive Holy Communion." Wrong. What matters, you stupid parrot, is they receive it reverentially and absent conscious mortal sin.
Your "at least" attitude is the same Novus Ordo disrespect that justifies every liturgical abuse extant.

"At least the kids enjoy the clown mass." "At least the teenagers look forward to rock mass." "At least the lesbian couple and the abortion doctor wanted to receive Holy Communon."
You Novus Ordo types forget that Holy Communion is a privilege,
"Religious fanatics like @Ultraviolet..."
...said the idiot who openly gloats every time some radical left-wing bishop unlawfully forces a diocese to receive the Eucharist ONLY in the hand. Tell everyone about your religious fanaticism then, Crackers.
Or your religious fantaticism when you're arguing in favor of married priests.
Or your religious fanaticism trying to remove holy water from the fonts.
Or your religious fanaticism any time someone points out the vast richness of the Latin Mass. You fly into a rage insisting there are no "essential" differences between the two.
Or your religous fanaticism which sees you defaming the Pope literally every day and saying the same things over and over every day.
"hissing and vomiting at people"
...said the guy who's already begun using profanity on GTV.
Like always, you're just one long run of error, noise, and double standards.

"the fool bishops in the antichurch led by antipope Francis listen to these clowns."
...instead of listening to the unqualified squawking of mindless, germ-obsessed Irish parrot who blames all the world's evils on "anniepope Francis".
"The same can not be done for SALIVA."
and you're still wrong, you brainless parrot. But first things, first.
Thor's Rhetorical Trick #46: The Heavy Headlines.
Every time you start laying down lots of underlining or all Caps Lock Or Bold Or all of the above, you're trying for a visual soundbyte because you don't have any facts supporting it. It's just more of your noise, said very visibly with nothing behind it.
Can saliva be sterlized? Yeah, it can. Several different methods in fact.

Typical of you, Thor. You don't know what you're talking about and instead you just lie to push your own "communion in the hand only" agenda.

Before touching the Eucharistic Host, the Priest, surely has purified his hands by washing them in Holy Water and making them fit to touch the host? The congregation, however, have hands which have touched pews, Missals, and shaken with other people in greeting. Along with this, they have handled money, coughed into their hands, covered their nose during a sneeze or blown their nose etc......

Prior to touching Our Lord's Sacred Body and Blood, these impure, unconsecrated hands now take the Real Presence of God and place it in their mouths.
Conciliar or Traditional? Which are more likely to catch the virus?
Most of the Faithful see through the charade of these pagan God-denying priests who have been instructed and "formed by Hell" according to the prophecies of Marie Julie Jahenny of Brittany, France. Why can't they stand us to bow before Our Lord?
Their REAL issue is that like their master Satan, they just don't want ANYONE to kneel before Christ.

ONE THING THAT MUST BE DONE IS TO ELIMINATE MINISTERS OF EUCARIST WHO CANNOT TOUCH THE BODY OF OUR LORD SINCE THEY DONOT HAVE CONSECRATED HANDS.

Two deliberately unamed “ physicians “ allegedly think that skin contact and saliva contact pose an equal risk.
Hands can be sanitized and washed.
The same can not be done for SALIVA.
Of course the fool bishops in the antichurch led by antipope Francis listen to these clowns.More
