I got this comment and thought it just too good not to add my two cents worth. I hope this gives you a laugh on this “shelter in place” Lenten Friday:
I am new to this blog.
I think, in these difficult times, it is important to remember what the great Catholic theologian Hans Kung stated back in the 1970s that in emergencies laymen may bless the Eucharist at Mass. We should remember that Kung rightly suggested that in a pinch laymen can perform priestly functions.

Kung, that great theologian, was such a sexist. To use the term “laymen” especially in he 1970’s was anathema! Feminists would have been outraged by that term not to mention the emerging LGBTQ and no sex person.

And what about toddlers, children and teenagers, male, female, ambiguous and no sex, why not them too!?
