“Scripture and Tradition go hand in hand in understanding the Word of God!”

For all practical purposes, you’re right. Unfortunately. The “grab bag” approach to Scripture leads to lots of error and invention of “tradition, which then proceeds to delude under imprimatur of “truth”.

If one wants to learn how a nun becomes a nun; I suggest watching "The Nun's Story" with Audrey Hepburn.

There is PLENTY of 'tradition' to be found in it.
