Why is Karl Keating so obsessed with traditionalists and Gerry Matatics, in particular. I think it's starting to get in the way of his doing his job effectively. How many traditionalists are their in he country, as opposed to non-practicing Catholics, those with no religion, etc. Plus, he lets this get to him and lets it effect his proper sense of charity.
As to why Mr. Keating is interested in "traditionalists" I think he expresses those reasons when he charitably writes about them
