Not necessarily. All bishops got into lefty politics after VatII, and the Spanish, probably because of their connections with Latin America and “Liberation Theology,” plunged into it head first. They were panting to be seen as au courant and anti-establishment, and the linguistic thing was made to order for people like that.

Put it back in Latin and none of this will be a problem. Of course they can preach or read the Gospel in whatever language they want; but the faithful will be reading it in Latin or in their own native language, and as for the preaching of the bishops and their clergy - it was usually political and wasn’t worth listening to anyway. No loss.

Well lets see what will happen first with the American bishops, then with the other bishops.
