I think you should kneel đź‘Ť

Kneeling or a genuflection is only required at Mass on Christmas and the Feast of the Annunciation. Otherwise it’s a Bow.
 
It’s a sad thing. We used to genuflect way back when. What ever happened to genuflecting (acknowledging the Lord’s sacred presence in the tabernacle) when you entered your pew?

I do it. Is it not allowed?

Now, will the smarter people here educate me on this? Is it correct that in the rubrics, the “bow” we are called to do here is a bow of the head, ( a nod in some people’s secular parlance) while the term used for a bow from the waist is a “profound bow”? I think I heard that somewhere but don’t remember for sure.

PROFOUND!!, LIKE IF YOU WERE WALKING PAST THE ALTER OF SACRIFICE.
WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT DENYING COMMUNION?
 
I always bow during this part in the Creed, and I’ve never seen a priest who doesn’t. Very few bow in our parish though…

I would hope everyone here still does this.
 
It’s sad Brother Rich but I don’t see it carried out even in a cathedral parish. I feeling a bit peevish…could there be a connection between this and yakking before and during Mass? Yes, katherine2 I don’t have any problem with greeting after Mass.

It is possible in larger “tourist” churches that the tabernacle is no longer in the main church. So in that case it is not expected. When the tabernacle is present and the lamp lit there is no excuse, not to acknowledge Christ’s presence.
