I never cease to be amazed at the church's relentless focus on tradition over Biblical principals.

Which "Biblical principles" mandate hand-holding in church?

I understand that the same bishop also frowns on the faithful making baloney sandwiches during the Our Father. That should show you how cravenly dedicated he is to slavishly following his idolatrous traditions of men.

Which “Biblical principles” mandate hand-holding in church?

---

Matthew 6:3 “Let not your left hand know what your right hand is doing”

Obviously the prohibition against hand-holding is a subtle Roman attempt to let the left hand know what the right hand is doing by allowing the left hand to come into contact with the right hand in prayer. If one wants to be pleasing to God one must studiously ignore all Papal directives and NEVER allow YOUR right hand to come into contact with YOUR left. One way to ensure this NEVER happens is to be holding the left hand of some one else. Thus, I Want to Hold Your Hand is a song mapping out a sure road to salvation.

On a non-sarcastic note, praise God for the change of guard in Covington.
