John Manos, president of Bellarmine Form wrote yesterday on the forum's blog a piece that needs to be read by every member of the catholic church, especially those who are unaware of the meaning of the word "indult."
The norm of receiving Holy Communion is in the kneeling position and on the tongue. There’s the moral law.
Holy Communion is the real presence of Our Lord. It is literally and actually Him. That I prefer to worship Him and make my body reflect that belief is not antinomian. Moreover, it is difficult to stretch moral law into the realm of indults. Indults are what is otherwise not permitted. It is a toleration of excess.
In the case of Communion in the hand, it is toleration of abuse.
