fish hawk:
No it is just we recognize, as G.K. Chesterton did, that “Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking about.”
Thus, the Tradition of the Church, as understood down through the centuries as expressed via the Councils, Creeds and consensus of the Patristic Tradition, who were closer to the Apostles and thus Christ than you and me, means I will trust the faith defined and understood down through the centuries and not think that I can read it for myself and make interpretations that are orthodox.
Ultimately, rather you will admit it or not, that mindset is nothing but “theological relativism” and in that sense no different from individual secularist who argue that “I can decide what is right and wrong” apart from Tradition and objective truth.
And for the record, the Church takes the Scripture very seriously which is why so much of it is read at the Liturgy of the Church.
I’m sure the Church takes the scriptures seriously except that important part that says not to add or detract from them. (purgatory, calling priest “father’, confession to a mere man, etc. etc.)
