Moon Communion

Buzz Aldrin  brought consecrated wine and host onto the moon with him.  Did you know that in the early church people used to take some consecrated bread home with them so that they could commune during the week.  It was pre-daily mass times.  When the church put people through a rigorous adult catechesis, they were mature enough and knowledgeable enough to take communion home.  After Constantine, when everyone just  got baptized, whole families, little training, that taking communion home began to change.  What developed, that was not so good, is a clergy that thought they were a much better caste than the lay people, in every way.  The shared "cup" became a "chalice" as well.  Go Buzz!
