“What evidence do you have contrary to the practice? Did the Fathers condemn it?”

This is your standard for Christianity? Things the Fathers didn’t practice, command or teach, but hey, they didn’t condemn it???

Your call, but frankly, that is the path that has incorporated cultic practices into Catholicism as “traditions” that are equal to Holy Writ.

That’s your standard, not mine.

Where’s the justification for your beliefs that X is bad?

Where’s the statements from Church fathers that X is bad?

Oh, that’s right, your fathers believe that Catholics are the whore of Babylon which automatically makes everything we do wrong. We’re supposed to magically believe that if the Bible says nothing about it that the Catholic church is automatically wrong. Odd that, eh?
