Do you traditionals have an excess of attention in the doctrine?

[samuraivader]

Hi!

I’m lately been quite curious in these things of traditional catholicism, and I think that maybe some of you judge too hard to the members of the Catholic Church of these days.

I’ve been thinking that the thing with traditionalism is that maybe some of you have an excess of attention in the doctrine of the faith.

Do you think this is true? What do you think about this?

P.D. Maybe bad english, sorry.

Define “excess of attention to the doctrines of the Faith”. Why should we not be attentive to the sacred truths of Catholicism?

 

[samuraivader]

In the meaning that the attention is so rigid that traditionals can’t accept new FORMS of express the SAME faith (I mean, only if is the faith of 2000 years, innovations like ‘homosexuality is good’ is not about what I am talking)

@samuraivader , by definition and the essence of its nature Catholicism is traditional .

As Catholics we receive everything by way of tradition .

All Catholics are traditional . They can’t be otherwise .

I’m assuming you’re talking about the Mass? I’ll try to be careful with how I word this, so I apologize if I do so poorly. I can’t speak for all Traditionalists, but I don’t think it would be incorrect to say that a number of them would argue that you can’t compare both of the forms of Masses.

Love your comment! With ‘traiditionals’ I mean people who defines themselves as catholics but have problems with things like the New Mass, the Vatican II council, ecumenism, the recent Popes, new ecclesial movements, new ways of teaching the faith, etc.

I mean, in general they have problems with the post-Vatican II Church.

I disagree.

There are many so called Traditionalists who reject what they have been given. They look to some imagined past and repudiate what faithful Catholics have done in the last century.

Even though they call themselves “traditionalists” they do not respect Tradition.

No.

The only excess is what doesn’t come from heaven, and what we should get we will receive when the Holy Spirit deems it’s time to receive it. Guess everything is copacetic.

But don’t all protestant churches start with this same question.?

I’ve met and talked with so-called traditionalists and it seems to me that they tend to be susceptible to over emphasizing rubrics or external forms or postures…
