	Traditionalist Catholic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In one sense, the term "traditional Catholic" is said to refer to Roman Catholics who would like to see the worship and customs of the Roman Catholic Church return to those before the reforms of the 1960s and to other Catholics who attempt to follow what they consider the traditional teachings of the Catholic Church.
		Mainstream Catholics have, however, been known to object to the exclusive appropriation of this expression by traditionalists, since, because of the position of Sacred Tradition in Catholic teaching, the general body of Catholics is essentially traditional.
		The number of traditionalist Catholics of all categories is very difficult to pin down, but they are a minority of the worldwide Catholic population: for example, according to an unconfirmed report by a Society of St. Pius X member, the Vatican authorities estimate that the relatively small number of 1.2 million Catholics support his Society.

	Roman Catholic Church - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Catholic Church sees the liturgy, the celebration of the Mystery of Christ, in particular the Paschal Mystery of his death and resurrection, as the high point of its activity and the source of its life and strength.
		The Catechism of the Catholic Church, 85 states that authentic interpretation of the Word of God is entrusted to the living Magisterium of the Church, namely the bishops in communion with the successor of Peter.
		Catholics are a significant minority in Britain, where their faith underwent a revival in the 19th and early 20th Century after three centuries of persecution and official repression.

		Traditional Catholics allege that Council documents were ambiguous and that the pastoral orientation assumed after the Council has led to a "watering-down" of Catholic teaching and practice.
		Traditional Catholics see the Second Vatican Council as a pastoral Council whose documents were marked by a supposed ambiguity which has led to error or which contained errors themselves.
		Traditional Catholics see the Novus Ordo as being a fruit of this "Paschal theology" as it is marked by such things as the replacement of Altars with tables, a focus on "community" rather than the offering of the Son to the Father, and so on.

		At the same time, some traditional Catholics are capitalizing on last year's national priest pedophilia scandal to entice disillusioned Catholics back to a faith that takes the New Testament literally and that rigidly follows church dogma.
		What sets traditional Catholics apart from the average lay person is that they attend masses celebrated in Latin and believe that no other language should be used during the church service.
		For traditional Catholics, there are no shades of gray in the issues of abortion and contraception, and women can't perform liturgical duties.

	National Catholic Reporter: Who are the traditional Catholics? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Traditional Catholics are on the average older than other Catholics by eight years.
		Traditional Catholics are devout: Two thirds of them attend Mass at least several times a month (one-third).
		Nonetheless, while they are almost three times more likely than other Catholics to agree with the church completely on abortion, homosexuality and premarital sex, five out of six are still Catholic on their own terms and disagree with one or more of these positions.

		Hence it is that a traditional Catholic insists upon priests ordained before 1968, or conditionally reordained by traditional Bishops with the ancient rites.
		It is not the traditional Catholic that is schismatic, but the post-Conciliar Church - and that body is not so much schismatic - that would be to place it on a par with the Greek Orthodox - as it is heretical.
		Threats of excommunication by the post-Conciliar Church are also a 'joke.' A traditional Catholic is delighted to be outside the new Church, for that Church is not the Body of Christ.

	May Catholics Attend the Traditional Latin Mass?
		There is a sound tradition among Catholic theologians and canonists that subjects have a right to resist unjust or too burdensome legislation, even though the legislator has not exceeded the strict limits of his authority in imposing it.
		As traditional Catholics we tend to give the Tridentine Mass priority over everything, but it would be unrealistic to expect all Catholics to take the same attitude.
		Any Catholic who is in doubt as to whether a traditional priest is in communion with the Pope should ask him whether he prays for the Pope by name in the Canon of the Mass.

	Caritas Unitas et Veritas
		Most Catholics did not leave the Church because they were outraged by novelties: they left the Church because the novelties seemed to prove that the Church no longer believed in her own teachings, that all the certitude of the Catholic past had been a hoax.
		Latin, of course, is the language of the Catholic Church and a sign of her unity.
		Therefore, conservative Catholics must reject the historicity of the Magi, the Shepherds, and the angels at the birth of Our Lord, which did not occur in Bethlehem, and believe that the Virgin Birth is simply a matter of faith, not history.

		By stating that this traditional priest and his people are "not in union with Rome", you are pronouncing, as shepherd of your flock, that they are outside the Roman Catholic Church, "outside of which there is no salvation".
		Attendance at the traditional Mass at the Shrine is a symbol of the Catholic refusal of the insults to God and the sacrileges which abound everywhere else in the diocese (e.g.
		If you consider this regularization to be a means of overcoming traditional Catholics' fixed and unchanging notion of Tradition, that is, the conception of Tradition on account of which Pope John Paul II accused Archbishop Lefebvre of being schismatic, then I fear that you will also fail.

		Three traditional church groups not affiliated with the Novus Ordo diocese, representing local independent and SSPX groups from across the spectrum of the Traditional Catholic Movement, have joined forces to be present.

		For Roman Catholics, the liturgy, or the Mass, is the central focus of their spiritual life.
		But I learned so much not just about the history and the traditions behind these devotions (and others--my favorite essay was on what the tradition of the saints means) but also on the ways that the individual writers find personal meaning in these ways of prayer.

		Catholics who follow St. Bridget's fifteen prayers, are expected to pray them daily, with a total of 5480 prayers in the year, to honor the visions of Bridget concerning the Passion, and to equal the number of wounds He received.
		According to Catholic sources, many of that mystic's revelations were given directly by Christ or 'the Virgin Mary.' Bridget or St Birgitta of Sweden is said to have heard Christ and the Virgin reveal the will of God to her.

		The millions of Catholics who've left the Church, the horrible state of the Faith, the scandals, and the crisis of Catholic culture are evidence that the Novus Ordo is a complete and utter failure.
		As things are, the English Catholic travelling to Italy or Brazil or Korea would be lost during the liturgy; "back in the day," a Catholic could travel anywhere in the world and hear the exact same Mass he would have heard at home, and his Missal would've been good anywhere.

		Unfortunately, because the unifying factor of the Faith has been subjected to the ravages of many and various heresies, such as Ecumenism and Modernism, it is an unfortunate consequence of this confusion that pride tends to make its way into our ranks.
		It seems that many fail to realize that their efforts are best directed towards rectifying the current crisis in the Church, of preserving and passing on the faith, rather than nit-picking and attacking their fellow Catholics.
