In any case, not all bishops had sympathized with Win Chelsey, whose tactless and blundering adherence to principle divided the bench. In this sentence above, why is "blundering" being used rather than "stupid"？ Do both"blundering" and "stupid" perfectly mean the same? Thank you very much ~

They're not exactly the same. "Blundering" carries an implication of clumsiness or awkwardness.

I would agree with the other responses, also, blundering can be approaching things arrogantly without paying attention to detail or the subtleties or complexities of the situation.

"Stupidity" is a mental attribute. "Blundering", on the other hand, connotes reckless action without care. A blundering person may not be stupid at all, but merely not paying attention, or perhaps not able to pay attention to what he is doing.
