I don't HAVE to explain to any type of Catholic why we celebrate the Eucharist, why we confess before a priest, why we pray to the Theotokos (Virgin Mary) and saints, why we venerate relics, why we have a calendar, why we have a priesthood, why we have an episcopate etc etc.<BR/><BR/>I also don't have to explain to Trad Caths why women can't be priests, why sodomy, usury and fornication are abominations, why we fast, why we don't eat or drink before communion, why we read the writings of the early Church Fathers, and why we resist any kind of change, adhere to Tradition and why "Spirit of V2" and all it spawned sucks!VSOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400266818545081938noreply@blogger.com
