Thank you. After I had posted here I began to be suspicious about the site. It had been shared on FB by a trusted (now not so trusted) poster. I will remove them from my list. Thanks again for pointing this out.You should reject such schismatic websites. They are, at best, an occasion of sin.

"Tradition in Action claims to be “committed to defend the perennial Magisterium of Holy Mother Church and Catholic traditions. TIA also works for a restoration of Christian civilization, adapted to contemporary historical circumstances.”
However, TIA’s members attempt to do this by ridiculing the Roman clergy, the Pope, and many prominent Catholic leaders and religious. Their manner of presenting pictures and commentary completely aside from any context is both a misrepresentation of facts and disgraceful to the Church and Her hierarchy. While ostensibly seeking to reinstate traditions in the Church, this site ridicules the living Tradition of the Church’s Magisterium and therefore, it cannot validly claim a right to defense of Holy Mother Church. We recommend avoiding it altogether.

From what I see this website doesn’t understand how inter religious dialogue works. While the pictures do show the cardinal walking around in a Hindu temple. We have to understand that he is doing this as a sign of respect to the Hindus at the temple. Remember the cardinal is a guest in their home and it would be non christian like to simply barge into the temple shouting idolatry! idolatry! Since the cardinal is a guest he must also respect some of the cultural and ritualistic customs at the temple. Now lets say the Hindu man in the pictures Pramukh Swami Mahara visited the Pope in the Vatican. We wouldn’t want him to start running around saying that our beliefs and ways are hideous. It is all about respect when it comes to inter religious dialogue.
The TIA site is unspeakable. I used to visit it out of curiosity but stopped some days ago when I read a letter they published (without any kind of critical comment) that called for the body of Blessed John XXIII to be removed from its shrine, to excommunicate him posthumously, and to then throw his body in the Tiber. That’s the kind of folks these people are.
Or you know… evaluating your belief system and thus strengthening it…You should reject such schismatic websites. They are, at best, an occasion of sin.
But I agree this is important. Not the fidelity bit. (Why the heck do you think I’m on here?) The resources bit. Make sure the other side isn’t just hot air (also what I’m doing here)First Evaluated: 04/21/2006; Last Updated: 05/20/2012

In regards to the actual article its a load of BS. He is just quietly and respectfully observing another persons beliefs. It’s respect not a conversion.
