There are real graces to be gained from these blessings. My hubby sometimes comes up for one, on the times when he does darken the door of a church, and is quite spiritually moved by the experience. Quote: And — whichever is the "right" or "better" way of doing it (if indeed there is a "right" or "better" way) Agreed, Fortunatis. I'm not really sure if there is a right or wrong way. It's what's in our hearts that God's interested in. Reverance is certainly an expression of our interior condition. Quote: it is not pharisaical to feel disapproval of those who show irreverence towards the Blessed Sacrament. I know about the meaning of "pharisaical". Perhaps I should have said, "judgemental". I find myself inwardly "tut tutting" about people's standards of dress, demeanor, etc. when I don't really know how close to God they are. Quote: Aaargh! I'm getting my Katy(ie)s mixed up again. And the two of you are getting in the way of my posting just to confuse me further! Yes, it's a bit confusing, isn't it? Perhaps I should change my user name again to something completely different!
