reelaroundthesun: So, I have another question. Jesus was supposed to be the most accepting, forgiving guy ever, right? I mean, he hung out with adulterers, lepers, the poor, the sick, etc., and he laid his hands on such people many times. Why, then, do some people feel that their "sinful" hands are not worthy to hold him when receiving the Eucharist? I don't really think Jesus cares...
I mentioned before that it is just my opinion, it’s how I personally feel reverent while at Mass. The Church has adopted the practice of receiving on the hands as acceptable, so as far as I know it is a matter of preference.
Your first question is in the works of being answered btw :)
