When a majority of bishops openly and directly contradict Scripture, isn't that direct evidence that their Apostolic authority never really existed in the first place?

What difference does it make to separate from a church that was untrue in the first place, if reunion to the false "root" is made under a different name?

I'll borrow a quotation and adapt it for this topic.
"Never doubt that a small group of committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that has." --Margaret Meade
I hope that a minority of this church, who believe in its orthodox principles, can save it for those of us who treasure it in our lives.
