[quote:Anonymous Coward 803666:MV8xNTQwNTYzXzI1NDM1MTU4XzJDQTY2Q0Ez] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1431202] [quote:[b]Anonymous Coward 1441461[/b]] Tell us that the "consecrated" hands of a pedophile priest are any holier than the hands of the people? Catholics have always been taught that they are inferior to priests, and so unworthy! The Scriptures do not teach that. . [/quote] Ac is a fallen away Catholic? Anti-Catholic? Most likely both. In Persona Christi, in the place of Christ. A priest is very special to Jesus, you don't understand. [/quote] You don't understand, NO PRIESTS are special to Jesus. Your dark catholic church corrupted EVERYTHING. YOU are a SON OF GOD and they hid that. It was perhaps the most important teaching Jesus gave when he was here. That you are made in the image of God, means you have THINKING MIND, so lets start thinking ok????? PLEASE!!!!! In fact, IF you ones are going to receive "holy communion or eucharist" by any church, you should pick it up yourself, you need no one between you and God. [/quote]

5 Tips on Receiving the Holy Eucharist on the Tongue
Posted by Taylor Marshall
Open your mouth wide. Make your mouth into a landing pad, not a quarter slot.
Stick out your tongue. Don't be embarrassed.
Close your eyes. Why? If you leave your eyes open you'll be tempted to move your head toward the priest. Moving targets are hard to hit. Close your eyes and keep your head still.
Don't bite the hand that feeds you. Sticking out your tongue will insure that his hand doesn't come into contact with your teeth (or lips - gross!)
Please do not chew the Holy Eucharist. Let it soften in the mouth and then swallow. By doing this, you'll avoid having the smallest particle of Our Lord stuck in your teeth where it might be desecrated later by coming into contact with the profane.
Some of my Catholic friends complain about priests touching their mouths when they try to receive Holy Communion on the tongue. That never happens to me. I think it's because I stick out my tongue and open wide (or maybe it's because I have a big mouth!).
Hat tip to Father Thomas Longua for these recommendations.
