It's all part of the cafeteria Catholicism practiced even by self described conservative Catholics.

And for those of us who've attended Mass in the diocese, it's easy to see the Pittsburgh diocese has a well-stocked buffet in their cafeteria, a little something for everyone. A giant melange of the new and the old, the licit and devout and barely licit or flagrantly wrong (I'm thinking of the children's Mass I attended with my son a few years ago...). My own (Erie) diocese has less tolerance for their cafeteria, i.e. some of the devout and 'old-fashioned' things have been vilified or tossed aside, occasionally re-instituted for brief times to settle some disagreement.
