If one can become a saint by "buying into" modernism, then the trad use of it as an epithet rings pretty hollow.

Yes, Mother Theresa's sanctity and orthodoxy have been brought up before on this very forum. Protestant's were very critical of Theresa's unwillingness to convert people who came to her.

Protestant's were critical of her. You are critical of her. Gee, are these the components of a syllogism? :o)
