Good for him! The Church (East and West) needs more bishops like him.
Now, why is the other (retired auxiliary bishop) not defrocked as the Councils call for? After all, everything he teaches seems to be contrary, indeed anathemical to Catholic doctrine.

“Good for him! The Church (East and West) needs more bishops like him.”
Its great to see a bishop act like a real bishop, using his canonical authority the way and in the place the canons call for!
“Now, why is the other (retired auxiliary bishop) not defrocked as the Councils call for? After all, everything he teaches seems to be contrary, indeed anathemical to Catholic doctrine.”
Good question! But this sort of “teaching” is inevitable when hierarchs of The Church involve themselves in secular politics. Politics and political involvement by clerics becomes like an evil narcotic and more often than not leads to uncanonical behavior and even heresy.
