We are in agreement. Fiorino has it all backwards; but recall that Bp Bruskewitz flat out excommunicated SSPX'rs, as well--along with the Call to Action types. All in the same document. BOOM! Your OUTTA here!
Yes, I rather like Bishop Bruskewitz' "smoking crater" approach. While it does treat traditionalist disobedience the same as anti-Catholic lunacy, he at least deals with all the real troublemakers, too. I would say that I don't see SSPX as the same level of problem as CTA, though.
I really like what Bishop DiLorenzo is doing in Arlington, Virginia. Kicking a** and taking names.
I agree with how Bruskewitz handled the situation... throw out all those who are disobedient... the guys on the left and those on the right...
Of course Bishop Fiorenza doesn't do that (at least to my knowledge), but he is correct to suspend Father Zigrang...
I wish he would come down hard on both.
P.S. I knew someone was going to get technical after I posted Latin Mass... :)
Bruskewitz can no more excommunicate SSPXers than he can excommunicate Catholics who say the rosary. He should merely be ignored, since such an excommunication would be a nullity. It does prove, however, that there is no such thing as a traditional bishop in the present Church--outside of the SSPX.
