I've seen many posting this was to mock Communion...I didn't get that impression at all.
Since when is someone feeding someone else something immediately Communion?
Put your hands out and receive the host... put it in your own mouth... That's how I did it anyway.
The put-your-hand-out style was brought in in the late 1960s. Before that, one always received kneeling, and on the tongue. A lot of people are actually going back to that old-style, for a number of reasons I won't get into because it would derail the thread totally.
