Its like when you wave at someone from across the room and the person behind them waves back.... no, I wasn't waving at YOU! I was waving at the guy in front of you!<br /><br />Its the same idea here. The priest may think you are kneeling before him, but in fact you are kneeling before the LORD himself! The priest just happens to be behind God. We kneel before the KING!Las Vegas Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06464853878545792914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7181609775805365054.post-22961338705223772692010-10-19T19:42:45.650-05:002010-10-19T19:42:45.650-05:00"Since our bishops don't permit kneeling....<b>"Since our bishops don't permit kneeling...."</b><br /><br />From the General Instruction of the Roman Missal, 3rd edition, March 2002. <br /><br />The following norm is the universal norm found in the Roman Missal. . . .<br /> <br /> <i> 160 . . .The faithful may communicate either standing or kneeling, as established by the Conference of Bishops. However, when they communicate standing, it is recommended that they make an appropriate gesture of reverence, to be laid down in the same norms, before receiving the Sacrament.</i><br /><br />Actually it doesn't surprise me that someone from St. John's wouldn't follow this.<br /><br /><b>"Humility and complete dependence upon God are very good things.
