The papacy challenged the authority of the Catholic Church. The Catholic Council of Bishops were displaced from dogmatic and doctrinal authority, to be replaced by the papacy instead. Conciliarism collapsed in 1517, causing schism within Catholic congregations still loyal to the Catholic Council of Bishops. Those who protested papal intervention into the sacred tradition of the Church, removing such tradition with dictoral authority from an individual rather than a council, created a Protestant movement among Catholic congregations. The papacy countered these Catholic congregations still loyal to the Catholic Council of Bishops with the Catholic Revival and Roman-Catholic Counter-Reformation. The Protestants were content with the sacred tradition of Catholicism and are often called "Old Catholics". The Reformation saw Catholicism as completely collapsed and in need of total Reform. The Evangelical Protestants and Reformed congregations competed theologically for the status of higher authority as more "true" doctrines to the intended faith as witnessed from the Bible.
According to historical records, there were approximately 200 Catholic bishops serving in the United States in 1920.
