************
Bishop Schneider is an absolute defender of the
traditional and immemorial practice of receiving Holy
Communion kneeling and on the tongue – so much so that his book Dominus
est deals exclusively with this theme. Dominus est was published
in Italian, and has since been translated into English, German, Estonian,
Lithuanian, Polish, Hungarian and Chinese. (“The
awareness of the greatness of the Eucharistic mystery is demonstrated in a
special way by the manner in which the Body of the Lord is distributed and
received.”).
Bishop
Schneider has also been an unconditional defender of the permanent and
infallible teaching of the Church on the definition
and composition of the family. Moreover, he has called for a clarification
on Amoris Laetitia in order to avoid
confusion and abusive interpretations that would lead to “a permanent, deliberate
and free violation of God’s sixth Commandment and of the sacredness and
indissolubility of a true and valid marriage.”
