This is the danger of catholic "tradition" and why it is rejected by Christians.

Actually a majority of the world's Christians do accept Catholicism and its Sacred Tradition. Please do not try to restrict the term Christian by the use of the "no true Scotsman" argument.

The union between the Immaculata and the Holy Spirit is so inexpressible, yet so perfect, that the Holy Spirit acts only by the Most Blessed Virgin, his Spouse. This is why she is the mediatrix of all graces given by the Holy Spirit. And since every grace is a gift of God the Father through the Son and by the Holy Spirit, it follows that there is no grace which Mary cannot dispose of as her own, which is not given to her for this purpose." — Manteau-Bonamy, Immaculate Conception, 91; F.X. Durrwell, The Holy Spirit of God (Cincinnati: Servant Books, 2006), 183-185

Do you, as a catholic, accept this part of catholic tradition?

It's a yes or no question.

Until now, I had no idea that the whole thing is determined by majority rule.

Matt 22:13,14
Then the king said to the attendants, ' Bind him hand and foot and cast him into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. ' For many are called, but few are chosen."
