The one, holy, catholic, and apostolic faith has roots in tradition: dogma, liturgy, belief and doctrine. To pretend otherwise is false, erroneous, and wrong.

The Tridentine Mass has its history and tradition tied to the Council of Trent, almost fifteen hundred years ago. Nothing since equals the deep spirituality, compelling virtue, and clear joy of all encompassing TRUTH. This cannot be denied given the millions upon millions of saved souls and thousands of inspired martyrs that developed over these multiple centuries.

Not recognizing what has occurred in history is ignorance personified.

Er, what year is it in your time zone? The Council of Trent met from 1545 to 1563, on and off.

This is reminding me of a "Star Trek" episode and I'm getting confused. Must be the heat ...
