In most cases I would say no. There are almost always exceptions though.

Ummm you make it sound like a line drawn war between our Papa and our bishops.

Ecclesiastical politics are more war-like than you could ever imagine.

Does this imply that you don't usually agree with me?

Nah, we've just been having a drought lately in our "rain of agreement"

(sigh) ideally ecclesiastical politics would be an oxymoron, but yeah, I know precisely what you mean.

We can currently only receive on the hand due to the swine flue

The chaplain of my soon-to-be convent, however, seems to have misplaced the letter from the bishop

Same here. The Archbishop hasn't flat-out said you can't receive on the tongue, but that it is strongly discouraged. Though the priest today said absolutely no Communion on the tongue.

It's just very sad to me, especially since the Eucharist is a Sacrament of healing, of viaticum.
