Read and ponder: "For the Holy Spirit was not promised to the Successors of Peter that by His revelation they might disclose new doctrine, but that by His help they might GUARD the revelation transmitted through the apostles and the deposit of Faith." (Denzinger, 1800, citing Vatican Council I, can. 3.)

In this case, it was the good Archbishop who was concerned about guarding the Catholic tradition and its deposit of faith.

That's the big difference between traditionalists and conservatives. You ignore Vatican I as well as Trent; you exalt Vatican II and the popes who support it.

Dear ultima ratio,

"That's the big difference between traditionalists and conservatives. You ignore Vatican I as well as Trent; you exalt Vatican II and the popes who support it."

No, I ignore nothing. I especially do not ignore that it is given to Peter to guard the revelation transmitted through the apostles and the deposit of Faith, and that we are guaranteed that in the exercise of the Magisterium of the Holy Catholic Church, Peter will not lead the faithful astray.

I believe that it is you who ignore that you do not have the teaching office, and neither does any archbishop outside his communion with Peter.
