Its too bad you cant read just what it says. Paul told Timothy to only teach those things that many faithful witnesses have heard him say previously, and are willing to confirm that he said them.
Catholics would have us believe that they were on the inside, and heard and knew things that no one else was privy to hear. If a faith doesnt need biblical support for the traditions it teaches, then there was no need for scripture or Gods word in the first place.
Thats why whole cloth traditions are condemned. They need biblical roots, or there nothing more then the traditions and commandments of men.
You seem to believe that if someone brings a tradition into the Church that was never taught in the Bible, and if others like it, and begin to emulate it, then eventually it becomes an official Church tradition, and it has the same weight as the biblical commands.
If a Pagan attended the early Church and practiced one of their Pagan rituals, such as making the sign of T, for Tamaz on their chest, and everyone thought how neat it looked, and soon everyone was doing the same thing, that could end up a Church tradition.
Since there is no biblical support for it, it would be a man made tradition, and not a command of God.
Matthew 15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
Best advice I have for you is to start praying the Rosary.
Another man made tradition? You have traditions for your traditions, and my guess is that a few sincere words from the heart mean more to God then a thousand memorized words that are not from the heart but by rote.

You follow your book that is different than mine - mine was here first so now what?...You might want to add this to your Bible
Then the creator of all things commanded, and said to me: and he that made me, rested in my tabernacle,......I am the mother of fair love, and of fear, and of knowledge, and of holy hope. In me is all grace of the way and of the truth, in me is all hope of life and of virtue. Come over to me, all ye that desire me, and be filled with my fruits. For my spirit is sweet above honey, and my inheritance above honey and the honeycomb. My memory is unto everlasting generations. They that eat me, shall yet hunger: and they that drink me, shall yet thirst. He that hearkeneth to me, shall not be confounded: and they that work by me, shall not sin. They that explain me shall have life everlasting. All these things are the book of life, and the covenant of the most High, and the knowledge of truth.
