Where does Bishop Garcia fall in our list of good/bad Bishops? Not too impressed by this action certainly. I’m guessing the Traditional Catholics were SSPX.

I have no good/bad data on Garcia. Since he is Novus Ordo...he is probably well intentioned..but misguided.

Don’t you mean **Archbishop Jose H. Gomez** from the article?

That is correct. Despite their great devotion to maintaining the pre-Vatican Latin liturgy, they have separated themselves from the Magisterium. They are not the first nor will they be the last to sever ties with the successor of St. Peter. As Catholics, we pray that one day they will be returned to the fold. Until then, Bishop Garcia is to be respected for his actions.
