Of course, he is absolutely correct.
Regardless of the size of the particle, it is the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord. If the particles are too small to be visible, they're still Jesus, which is why the patten and why only the Priest touches the host, and it goes ON YOUR TONGUE. Furthermore, you should not chew it, because then obviously, you get particles stuck in your teeth, where they might end up stuck to your toothbrush or dental floss or toothpick or apple core or whatever.
Some years ago, about 1993, I asked an aging pastor Emeritus at a local parish about this fragment of hosts problem. You would think that he would have known better. He was about 90 years old at the time, an old Irish priest, who always recited the Anima Christi after Mass (in English).
"Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ save me.
Blood of Christ inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ strengthen me.
O good Jesus, hear me.
Within Thy wounds, hide me.
Suffer me not to be separated from Thee.
From the malicious enemy defend me.
In the hour of my death call me,
And bid me come unto Thee,
That with Thy saints I may praise Thee
Forever and ever. Amen."
He told me that "In the old days," they used to have a "special washing" whereby the communion rail and the kneeling pads and the floor were cleansed to be sure any particles are safely picked up and not left unnoticed. And before then, there was a cloth that was placed over the rail for extra protection, and the cloth was specially washed, too. Then he abruptly said, "But we don't do that anymore." He was not sad, or in any way unhappy about the loss of this custom and tradition of longstanding practice which had been abandoned within his living memory. He had been there when it happened. And he didn't mind losing it. He had no explanation for this. That was just the way it is.
Since I could not get a satisfactory answer out of him, I tried one of the so-called deacons in the parish, who had recently been through "training." (But he didn't seem to have learned much.) I said that not too long ago, there was a special washing that was done on the communion rail and the floor and kneeling pads to be sure that no tiny fragments of the hosts would be mistreated in a profane way, like vacuum or mop in a bucket or leaf blower.
His answer was more informative effectively than the elderly priest's. He said that he had never heard of any such "special washing." (I realized then that the only reason the priest had told me that is because I had pressed the issue and he had to remember something he had long tried to forget about.)
The deacon then told me the best part. He opened his mouth and uttered these very words, and I will never forget them. He said to me: "They taught us in our preparatory classes that when a particle of a consecrated host is too small to be recognizable, it loses its character."
Therefore, this priest in the website who took a picture of the fragment, according to the teachings that are given for new "deacons" in NovusOrdo training programs, was taking a picture of something that they say has lost its character because it is not recognizable as a piece of the host, since it is too small.
I offer you this, dear reader, as an example of how bad theology has consequences. For it is now a teaching of these same NovusOrdo "deacons" that it is not until the priest RAISES THE HOST into the air above his head at the consecration, and when comes the moment the congregation LOOKS at it, that FOR THEM, it becomes the Body and Blood of Our Lord. This is what the Lutherans and Pres-byterians say, as well, and therefore, being more honest in their heresy, these protestants say that it is Jesus IN the host, that He SHARES its substance because it still LOOKS like bread therefore it IS still bread, but it is ALSO Jesus, in an analogous way, that is, symbolically, so long as people are present to see it that way, because it is their PERCEPTION and their SUBJECTIVE REALITY that makes it as it were Jesus, but when these people leave the room, any unconsumed hosts or particles thereof lose their character, and become again simply pieces of unleavened bread.
ONE might now see how at JPII stadium 'masses' they were able to collect unconsumed hosts in burlap sacks (not a typo -- burlap sacks) and unceremoniously CAST THEM into the nearest river.
And this man was canonized a Saint on Quasitrad Sunday (a.k.a. Quasimodo Sunday).
