Bishop betrays his own inheritance.:
"Kmiec is actively involved in recruiting Polish-born priests, but that won’t solve the diocese’s demographic challenges and overall priest shortage, he said. "
This is a straightforward untruth. He can have all the priests he wants from Poland and he knows it, given that they would not only be serving Polish communities but also the wider community.
What sort of Bishop wants to close America's First Basilica? Basilica of St Adalbert.
Demanding that parishes forget their identities forged by history has a whiff of Americanism whose adherents thought that the national virtues of America meant that the Church in America was a cut above all other national churches. One also thinks of Cardinal O'Malley's latest comments claiming an American exception to the forthcoming indult for the Latin Mass.
