What I have always been taught is based on the following excerpt from the Catholic Catechism: 1377 The Eucharistic presence of Christ begins at the moment of the consecration and endures as long as the Eucharistic species subsist. Christ is present whole and entire in each of the species and whole and entire in each of their parts, in such a way that the breaking of the bread does not divide Christ. For this reason, it is not necessary to receive Communion under both species. JDG _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
