You may consider it that weak or counter to the "pure" faith of Protestantism. But there is nothing pure about a theology that seeks to abandon half of its makeup. Just as protestants abandoned Sacred Tradition, they only have half the story.

Christians have the TRUE story, and it's in the Bible.

We don't need *sacred tradition* that usurps the authority of Scripture because Scripture gives us everything we need to be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

2 Timothy 3:14-17 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

....”We don’t need *sacred tradition* that usurps the authority of Scripture”....

That’s exactly why they not only “need” traditions.. they do not adhere to the scriptures.....and traditions are what holds all that’s false up....without them, and the ability to manipulate and change them, the leadership and Preisthood would all come down.
