Both of you approach Catholic Doctrine as though you were Protestants.

Well, then, I guess all my Catholic ancestors were also Protestants. I assist at the same Mass, now available in only limited parts of the world, at limited times and only on certain Sundays that they had the good fortune of assisting on a daily basis. I hear the same Canon of the Holy Mass that they did; in the same language that they heard it. I receive Holy Communion in the same manner as they: on my knees. My Catholic ancestors did not have prayer rugs, nor did they kiss the Koran. I do not protest Catholic faith and tradition. What I do protest is novelties.
