L'Osservatore Romano, the Vatican newspaper, ran a story Jan. 8 by Auxiliary Bishop Athanasius Schneider of Karaganda, Kazakhstan, that advocates Catholics receive Communion on the tongue while kneeling. Drawing on teaching from the patristic period (circa 110-450), Schneider compared Communion to breastfeeding.
Just as a baby opens his mouth to receive nourishment from his mother, so should Catholics open their mouths to receive nourishment from Jesus, he wrote.
