Deacon Greg Kandra provides some more encouraging information on the new Co-Adjutor Archbishop for the largest diocese in the United States. Here’s some data from his commentary on Belief Net.com from when Gomez was Archbishop of San Antonio.
“He denounced one Catholic university when it invited then-Sen. Hillary Clinton to campus, because she favored abortion rights, and another when it invited a Benedictine nun, because she had advocated the ordination of women. Under his reign, a local Catholic high school ended its relationship with an organization that raised money to fight breast cancer, because the same organization gave grants to Planned Parenthood. After a 17-year-old lay advisory commission created by his predecessor suggested that gay marriage might be a human rights issue under one reading of the church’s teachings, Gomez disbanded the commission.” Read more here.
