If Sacred Tradition (what all generations of the Church have taught) is ignored, then the alternative is that heretical popular doctrines of the day, like homosexual marriage, cloning, abortion on demand, embryonic stem cell research, etc., will start to be accepted by pastors and churches who want to be called modernistic, and who don't want to offend the popular culture. These formerly evil things become part of their church doctrine by a simple majority vote of the delegates to their conventions. Vice should never become virtue by popular vote. Isaiah 5:20 says "woe to them who call evil good and good evil." When Tradition is not present in a church, this is exactly what happens, and is happening now before our very eyes.
I would agree with you, with the only caveat being that the only sacred traditions are those commanded in scripture.
When Tradition sound doctrine accompanied by holy living is not present in a church, this is exactly what happens, (fixed)
The Catholic church has no shortage of traditions. Would you say there is also no problem of homosexuals in the pulpit?
Sometimes evil can appear harmless — like taking a bite out of an apple.
