It looks like a dinner plate. And is it me or does it look too heavy to hold up?
With its shape and rough edges...
Well, never mind. I assume that it was made up of valid matter and so I wouldn't want to be disrespectful.
Never mind.
Even I could hold it up. It isn’t thick. But the last part of the hymn during the breaking of the Bread would have been repeated several times until it is all broken into small enough pieces to distribute. “Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world: grant us peace.” A Mass as important as this (regardless of whether we approve of the choice of Archbishop) is important, and calls for display.
