Underlying the misleading notion of honour was an equally skewed view of valour. Possibly he objected to honouring the unconsecrated bread and wine with excessive ceremony. Such arrangements, enacted without the customary familial negotiations, usurped the privileges of parents and their ability to protect their family lineage, stability, and honour.
