>>The difference is that I accept Sacred Tradition.<<

When it’s contrary to what scripture teaches there is no “Sacred Tradition”. It’s incorporating pagan rituals, practices, and symbols. The RCC calling them "Christianized" notwithstanding.

Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition cannot contradict one another. When you perceive that they do it is your interpretation or perception of one or both that is in error.

Peace be with you

Well, it’s certainly tradition and in the RCC mind it may be sacred, but it is not by any means true because it’s contradicted by the clear teaching of Scripture.

So the appeal to *Sacred Tradition* may make people feel all warm and fuzzy, but is nothing of substance.
