It is difficult to argue with Traditionalists because their arguments are inconsistent and illogical. Moreover, they disagree among themselves on many issues,

Really, I find that true about the neo-Caths, do they believe in birth control or not? Do they believe in the real presence or not? Is it okay for nuns to do homilies or not? Are clown Masses acceptable liturgy or not? If only it were possible to learn what the position of the neo-Catholics actually is.

I don't know what a "neo-Catholic" is. However, Catholics such as myself, who are loyal to the magisterium, reject contraception because it is immoral. Similarly, we would never approve of "clown" Masses or of nuns delivering homilies since such practices violate the rubrics and the dignity of the Mass.

The only Catholics who would approve of such things are those who dissent from Church teachings, namely those with Modernist leanings. I have never come across any "conservative," traditional-minded Catholic who approves of anything like this. When you find one, let me know.
