text: It was an intentional overstatement. It is a small fringe group, just as the people who do not recognize the V2 reforms are a small fringe group. Neither is a coherent understanding of the liturgy or the Church. 
  
  Why shouldn't statues, communion rails, and tabernacles be moved back into the sanctuary? The tabernacle holds the Eucharist, the center of the the liturgy. Why should it not occupy a central place? Correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know V2 never called for their removal. The communion rail is a matter of preference and allows for easier reception kneeling and on the tongue, which many prefer, but does not preclude receiving standing and in the hand. I think an equally good question is why were these things removed in the first place? To compare these things to confederate statues is to ignore context entirely. The statues are inexorably linked to a history of racism, violence, and rebellion. One can make no such claims about the tabernacle or statues of saints.
