Re: Modernism in the RCC & WO vs. Traditionalism in TOCs

Then why is this priory selling the Jewish symbol? this is very confusing. There are many elements of Judaism that have been retained by the Christians. Remember that Judaism originally taught the existence of the All Holy Trinity because in Genesis it was written, "Let US create man in OUR OW...

Re: Modernism in the RCC & WO vs. Traditionalism in TOCs

I'm talking about the picture above the cross. The shin, unlike the cross, has never been used in Christian iconography. A simple Google Images search for "Holy Spirit iconography" will prove you wrong. Yes, that is a more minimalist take and not my cup of tea, but to say that it has neve...

They are the plainest type, r...

Secular society. It's universally done, and I can't blame people.
