Good article (read again later). As a former Protestant, I sometimes am irritated when Catholics fail to distinguish between "pious tradition" (stories you may believe if you want to) and Sacred Tradition, which God's revealed truth. It's confusing to non-Catholics, and can make Catholics appear dishonest or ignorant.

I know. Sometimes, it is very confusing.
