I do not understand the rationale behind posting responses from “lobbying groups” and not individual diocesan and episcopal responses. It would seem that our ecclesiology should privilege the responses of bishops and their dioceses above those of lobbying groups, whether progressive/revisionist, confessing/traditional, or other.

Simon replies: it is purely pragmatic, I do not have time to deal with diocesan or other responses below the level of province. At the time I started out, however, nobody else was collecting lobbying groups, so I started doing that.
