"This could perhaps be explained in terms of a kind of Rousseauist, radical anti-traditionalism, a view that sees all inherited practices, obligations and relationships as crippling to the human spirit. Those who have been imprisoned in them must be freed — by force, if necessary — and forever afterwards traditions must be kept at bay, like the Polio bacillus."

In religious groups, as in cultural groups of all kinds, one finds a range of attitudes towards the group’s traditions, its cultural inheritance. At one end of the range are those who want to preserve and even to recover the group’s heritage of cultural practices as much as possible — let us call them “traditionalists” — and at the other end there are those who travel more lightly. There are the Orthodox Jews who devote their whole lives to the study of the Torah and the ancient commentaries upon it, and on the other hand there are the Ukrainian housewives who have never learnt to make authentic borscht.
There is a danger, for those at the non-traditionalist end of the spectrum, of losing their cultural identity. The motivation for moving in that direction is nevertheless easy to see …

You cannot compare the Christian dogma which is an eternal and divine revelation with cultural traditions or styles or any other transient and perishable human creation. You cannot compare the Christian creed with the Ukrainian borscht. What some call modernism in the Christian church is nothing more than the gnosis and the Jewish Kabbalah masquerading as Christianity.
It must be made very clear that being progressive or Modernist for those who advocate that current within the church simply means being anti-Christian. A Christian is a retrograde for the modernists and to reform the creed means to renounce it. That is to say: Not believing in the hereafter, nor in the supernatural dimension of the world, nor in heaven or hell or in angels or demons; not believing in the resurrection of the dead. In one word: Not believing in the Gospel. Heaven does not exist for a progressive, neither Hell either, both are on earth that in any case would be a purgatory. A progressive believes in nothing except in progress, a progress that consists of extreme technological development, (it is an idolatry of technology, hence we are all governed today by technocratic bankers) and in the enslavement of man by the machine.
If the annual traditionalist walking pilgrimage from Paris to Chartres had just been attended by record numbers is simply because the traditionalists know or intuit that after the Second Vatican Council orchestrated by the freemasons infiltrated in the church, the Catholic leaders who consider themselves modernists apostatized from the Christian creed and converted to the cabalistic gnosis that basically consists of replacing the cult of the logos or the absolute divine reason for the cult of the finite and fallible human reason frequently represented as a goddess
The cult of human reason has ended in the cult of inhuman unreason and to the justification of all kinds of nonsense such as the obligation to wear harmful face masks. The rationalists have ended up rationalizing the greatest nonsense. Tomorrow they will say on television that donkeys fly and the rationalists will believe it; In fact, the masks are like huge donkey ears that globalist leaders have put on everybody not for not doing his or her homework, but for doing it.
The anti-spiritual, cerebral and rationalistic “gnostic religion” has replaced the natural versus supernatural dichotomy with the mental versus bodily dichotomy. When the Gnostics speak of the spirit, they are really speaking simply of the mind, which is as carnal as the rest of the human body.
