Leading by example

Dear Editor, Regarding Catholics in second marriages etc. not receiving the Eucharist but identifying themselves as public sinners (sexual sinners) by crossing their arms before the priest, let us introduce a new practise alongside this. Let all celebrants at Mass who are in a current sexual relationship, heterosexual or otherwise, refuse, in public, to take the host. Otherwise their behaviour and attitudes are simply hypocritical and puerile.

Yours etc.,
