Apologia for Tradition

Understanding Catholic Tradition and its essential role in Christ's indefectible Church through the ages! Apologia for Tradition is a powerful, well-documented defence of sacred Tradition as a solution for the modern crisis in the Church. This book demonstrates how the Catholics of history and today are united in a timeless battle to defend Tradition. A battle that stretches from the sands of the Colosseum to the cultural arena of today's post-Christian era. The book shows: The triumph of Tradition over persecution and heresy Historical examples of the Church's method of adherence to Tradition How in every era, Christ raised up saints to defend the Tradition of Holy Mother Church How evil has attempted to eradicate Tradition, especially today In the unhappy event of a conflict between the "living Magisterium" and Tradition, the primacy can be attributed to Tradition alone, for one simple reason: Tradition, which is the "living" Magisterium considered in its universality and continuity, is infallible in itself, whereas the so-called "living" Magisterium, understood as the current preaching of the ecclesiastical hierarchy, is infallible only under certain conditions. - Roberto de Mattei
