In yet-another Apocalypse Edition of Systematically, we invited Eric Mabry back and welcomed Joe Mudd for the first time to talk to us about the much-abused notion of "spiritual communion" that has come to the fore in response to the cessation of public masses. Joe and Eric diagnose what they see as the two extreme positions being taken on the question, and then walk us through the details of what spiritual communion means in the theology of St. Thomas Aquinas. We also give some consideration to the reality of televised/digitally streamed masses. Frivolity-wise, we consider the merits of various legumes.
