I noticed a petition to rescind a ban on Communion on the tongue was denied. At the very top, as earthbound Church things are counted. Knoxville’s Bishop Stika noted earlier this year:
Many have attacked me and the result was their followers calling the chancery and directed vile and abusive comments to a saintly woman who answers the phone. They will feed hate and lead you to sin. They distort the teachings of Jesus.
Seems like the hands are no less unclean than the tongue.
Catholic Sensibility 
All Are Welcome in the Church of Consequentialism.
Please do not interpret the following remark as criticism. After the Sunday noon Mass with Holy Communion, our three parish priests go to the parking lot for drive-by reception, particularly for those who avoid the indoor Mass.
