Polycarp IV says:
The US bishops are in open schism.
They have been for years. Altar girls, Communion in the hand, wreckovations, the Indult -- time and again they've saluted Rome with the middle finger. The GOOD news is that 25% of the USCCB voted WITH Rome. A full quarter of the Bishops stood tall. More good news, over 350 diocesan priests are taking instruction from the SSPX US District office in Latin prepatory to resumption of the Tridentine Mass.

The GOOD news is that 25% of the USCCB voted WITH Rome. Where? When? I thought the vote was 183 to 6?

Six bishops voted against the resolution. Six out of 189.
That's 3%, not 25%.

A 250 batting average is OK for baseball, but theology ain't baseball.
