[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've actually never seen drinking wine from one cup except once; I'm Protestant and in my fifties. This has already gone by the wayside in most places.

So most Presbyterian and Methodist churches don't do this anyhow. And some now have gluten free communion. One Lutheran Church had the shared cup, but also had small individual cups available; only the oldest members were drinking from the shared cup.

My last Presbyterian Church (not here) actually had already gone through not having hymnals, and projecting the hymns and readings, back to using the printed hymnals and bulletins again. There were so many IT people attending who didn't want to deal with screens for Sunday.

I wish modern churches would bring back meditative prayer and chanting to a greater extent. And mix up singing and use older styles... medieval, Gregorian, etc... along with modern music. [/quote]

As you've witesssed, churches play to their members -- they have to keep people coming in order to survive, although now with electronic giving,  people can assuage their guilt by paying every Sunday, even though they do not attend. [/quote]
