The Church. But that means - The Church, not those fighting The Church from within the institutional church. Even if not declared heretics, the history of the institution is one of disobedience and conflict from those wearing the collars - from those who took the formal oaths. They are not the standard. They are not the basis. No Catholic ever confused the collar for The Church, the 'reformist' with the Saint. The standard isn't them. It's The Church. It's a corporate body, and not merely that. That is, if they consider The Church 'outmoded', 'outdated', 'evil and dark age', worse then than now, and so on, they obey The Church, and don't obey them. The Truth cannot be 'reformed'. It simply is. And professional negligence or dereliction of duty are not confined merely to the professions and the military - it just goes by other names, perhaps.
