US Catholic Bishops have apparently conceded that members of the faithful should not be disturbed or turned away if they choose to receive Communion from the priest directly on the tongue, rather than initially in the hand, as diocesan parish churches reopen following the current pandemic.

This is a disgrace. The Bishops are mostly democrats/liberals. Our 7:30am Mass on Sunday has 1 Priest, 1 Deacon, 4 altar servers, 2 readers and 5 musicians. That’s already 13 people. So, no one could attend, and our Parish has 5000 families.

A fearful shepherd cannot lead a flock and keep the wolves at bay.

The recommendation that vigorous singing be discouraged is laughable. I’ve been attending masses for over 50 years, and haven’t heard much singing at all. Well, maybe one Christmas in Tucson...
