the entire christian religion is cultural appropriation, m8. and that's a good thing.
Should I become a Latin or a Byzantine?

Whichever one has less pedophiles I guess.

b-b-but it wasn't ex cathedra!!

I just can't do the mental gymnastics anymore about it was not ex cathedral and the magisterium and so on. I mean, when has a Pope publicly said heresy even once? And now it's every month. Papal infallibility just cannot be true anymore, or those Popes are not legit. Orthodoxy or sedevacantism are the only valid choices.

Read Vatican 1. It clearly lays out the limit of the Pope's infallibility. Contrary to belief, Vatican 1 was a warning from God against ultramontanism and was prophetical of the 20th century if people did not repent of believing everything a Pope did was infallible. V1 limits severely the power most people thought the Pope had. The Pope cannot contradict divine revelation, infallibility does not extend to that.
Conservatives are losing their faith over this Pope, when they don't realise that he is no worse, and actually even better than all the post v2 Popes. You are losing the faith because you are proud and you think that you are the standard of divine justice. Remember that you cannot excommunicate and condemn your spiritual superiors as formal heretics even if they are material heretics. If you refuse to submit to and be in communion with the Pope then you will commit schism which is mortally sinful.
Mass apostasy funnily enough will come first from the conservative novus ordo and ecclesia dei catholics because they have proudly made irrational fauxbedience a part of their self image. Once people just accept the SSPX position they will be able to grow in the faith rather than being fixated on condemning others as heretics and schismatics.

As a protestant I have to say the latin Rome was better, even though Byzantine lasted longer, but ask yourself "how did that empire fall?" By leaving the back door open in the most important state of the government. Huge fail.
This is what happens when you reject scholasticism-you end up dead or pay the jizya. At least in fallen west empire, they humanized the barbarians and converted them to Christ.
