What The?!?!

Heard in church this morning (in regards to communion):

...."it's a celebration, but it's a quiet celebration"

Huh?

Isn't this a profound oxymoron?

I think I have different ideas of how the Last Supper and the subsequent celebrations (via communion) of Christ's sacrifice for the sin's of mankind should look like...and it's not quiet.

Thoughts?

I agree...I'm pretty jazzed every time I realize I'm not going to hell!

Umm.. yeah. I don't remember Christ saying that we had to be quiet during communion. Actually, I don't remember him saying a lot about communion. If we go by example, it should be a meal where we are communing with others around us. We should be shouting for joy about the blessed news of salvation.
