The article goes on to tell us about Adamec's replacement, Bishop Bartschak, who says he worked for the Most Rev. Donald Trautsperson, Bishop of Erie, for 20 years...
"If he (Adamec's replacement, Bishop Bartschak) worked for Bishop Trautsperson, he can't be much better and is probably decidedly worse than the outgoing Adamec. No doubt those trying to hear the Mass of their grandsires will find things difficult. Yet another Old Liberal given a position of trust where he doesn't belong. May God have mercy on the decaying and rusting Altoona-Jonestown Diocese.
Apparently Rome feels "another Old Liberal" does belong in this position of trust.
Is this how Rome cleans house?
I have heard the opposite about Adamec’s replacement. I know he’s celebrating Divine Mercy Sunday, which, in the past Adamec never even acknowledged. Let’s hope for the best. My family still lives in that diocese.
For the most part, these lousy liberal bishops are reaching retirement age, and are being replaced by much better successors.
I don’t know anything about the new bishop, but will hope and trust for the best unless we actually hear differently.
Any comments on this?
