One of the problems with this statement is that the Tradition existed long before the NT Scriptures were written and centuries before they were chosen. And that Tradition continues to this day. The Icons were created to remind the illiterate supermajority of the day of aspects of the Faith. They predated NT Scripture as well.

Aside from the fact that everyone on this forum knows how totally wrong that statement is, can you provide us with exactly what traditions it is that were passed down from the apostles and how we know that they're genuine and the right ones.

What are your sources to verify and validate the traditions you claim were passed on from the apostles (allegedly) before Scripture was was written?

Only the unlettered ones.

Sure. They're in the Catechism. That is found on Vatican.va.

You see, that is what separates Catholics from failed Catholics. Catholics believe in the Faith handed down from Jesus Christ through His Apostles. It is all about Christ. Failed Catholics believe whatever it is that they happen to believe at the moment. They call it "knowledge" and it is all about them.

Amen. I wonder what the traditions were of Adam when God gave the command not to eat the fruit of the tree? In fact, if someone want to say that Adam didn't write it down and that it was past down by word of mouth, here would be a case of where "tradition" failed. ;O)
