The author is mixing apples and oranges perhaps? On the one hand he is saying that the Holy Spirit will prevail and so the Church will not be led into error and on the other hand, he says that we must remain in union with our bishops and priests as they are in union with Rome. The first two things are absolutely correct but the third thing requires discernment. So, would that mean that we are to be in union with Cardinal Mahony and/or Bishop Bruskewicz equally? How do I know which one of them is in union with Rome? Do I heed the words of Fr. McBrien or Fr. Fessio? What do I do about my own parish priest who has stated that he thinks we should pull away from Rome because Rome doesn't understand Americans? Is he in union with Rome?
Why is progressivism accepted as "the Church will not be led into error" and Catholic traditionalism is accepted as "Fundamentalism" and "externalism" and "fanaticism"?
An altogether aggravating article.
