While you are clearly expected to ingest the wafer in the church, there is no stated rule that you must.
I think that there is, but I don't remember. Not *rule,* rule, like No shoes, no soul, no service. But there is a rule (doctrine?) that non-Catholics cannot take Communion. And I don't bring that up as proof that one must consume the eucharist in the church; I only point it out to offer an example of a "rule" regarding Catholic Mass.
And I'm pretty sure that another rule is, If You Go Up To Take Communion, You Consume It Right Away.

I'm just sayin', is all...
The church gave the wafer to the kid, he didn't sneak into the vestry and take it.
And the wafer was going to leave the church either way. It was just a question of whether it was inside of the kid or outside.
I'm just sayin', is all...
oh, I know. It's just that it's hard to demonstrate that the church was harmed when the item that was allegedly taken was worth less than a penny.
From what I gather, there was no law broken. He was just plain tacky.
Yes, I'm fully aware I'm being simplistic and silly.
