Last week, the call for a meeting called “ The three hours of Gernika for peace ”, convened by the Forum of Priests of Vizcaya , was announced with great fanfare in the Basque press, and in many media outlets in the rest of Spain . Days before, the Basque newspapers published articles pointing out the supposed lack of collaboration of the bishops of the Basque dioceses with the peace process . And, of course, as a counterpoint, this forum of priests was given as an example, which was born to be a kind of counterweight to the appointment of Mons. Mario Iceta as bishop of Bilbao. Thus, we can read the following on their website: The Catholic Church is experiencing a true return to the past.
There is a real and very striking forgetfulness of the guidelines of the Second Vatican Council, which in many circles is considered responsible for the ecclesiastical and evangelizing difficulties that we all see. This involution Job Function Email List is causing a lack of credibility of the institutional Church. The restorationist wave has also been reaching our diocese. An expression of this is the abandonment of what the Diocesan Assembly entailed, the style of diocesan government of recent times, and the election of Mr. Mario Iceta. We think that, right now, the so-called “course correction of the diocese”, which all the analysts have been announcing to us, has entered its final phase.
Etc… A certain journalistic class has given this forum of bounced priests such media coverage that it would seem that they represent a very majority percentage of Biscayan priests and faithful . Well, according to my sources, a whopping 50 people were there in the three hours of Gernica. 80 all the most. In an event announced everywhere and with media support from the nationalist press, it turns out that the priests of the forum barely manage to bring one person for each of them . And not because the indicated place had insufficient capacity. Apparently, hundreds of attendees were expected.
