Would that be tradition (with a small-case t), Tradition with a capital T)...

...ah, brings back my old RCIA classes, and the simplistic attempt to explain the Deposit of Faith...such silly courses, really...I recall inquiring about the TLM, and they looked at me as if I had sprouted a second neck...

or Tradition in the sense that he knows better than the appointed and anointed Hierarchy of the Church?...

...I’ve met numerous modern Catholics who told me that my criticism of Vat II was misplaced, and that I was mocking the divine providence of the Holy Spirit, and should learn what it means to humble and charitable...and then I sat back and watched as some sputtered and fumed in outrage when the appointed and anointed decided the ICEL Mass translation had to be improved, and they railed at the Credo’s ‘I’ replacing the phony inclusivity of ‘we’...I asked, ‘but what of charity to those that form our Faith?...

Those “such silly courses” are bringing many people soundly into or solidly back into the Church.

As for Vatican II, I was myself thrown into some spiritual disarray from poor leaders/teachers who misinterpreted much of that...and my own disobedient choices.

Thank our Good God and the faithful core who remained obedient to the Church for the assistance they gave me in understanding the truth of all that. As a result, I came home to the Church and all of her rich beauty...and am now seeing and helping others do the same.
