Bishoprics are counties that are ruled by a bishop.

2. Creating a bishopric doesn't reduce your badboy-points, it gives you a one-time piety-bonus of between 150 and 300 piety. If you give an existing bishop another county or make him an archbishop (= give him a duketitle) then you will get a BB-reduction.
3. Bishops have no demesne-limits, so they won't create sub-vassals
4. Bishops get a loyalty bonus if you have positive piety, which means that bishops are less likely to revolt
5. You can't lose a bishopric through inheritance, a normal vassal can be inherited by someone from outside your realm, a bishopric can't be inherited
6. If a bishop becomes Pope and he is your direct vassal then you will get all his titles back
