Catholic Traditions vs The Bible.

Don't find anything funny about pointing out the facts.
That's not a conflicting statement. Maybe it conflicts with what you believe. However, to say someone or something is making conflicting statements is to suggest they have said things that are in contradiction - and this isn't the case.
You are making no sense right now.
No Saturday is Saturday. Sundays begin on Saturday evening according to the Jewish tradition of the Sabbath beginning on the evening of the day prior. Catholics cannot celebrate the Sunday Mass on Saturday morning or afternoon.

Question: What is the foundation for scriptural interpretation/definition? Iow - Who/what defines Scripture?

You are asking two different questions.
Interpretation depends on many factors.
Who/what defines scripture is the Catholic Church.

No, it is the same question, simply asked in two ways...
You say, "Who/what defines scripture is the Catholic Church.", but based upon what foundation? Iow, Who/what says so?

Here's funny. The RCC denigrates the SDA for Saturday Sabbath because it's what the Jews did.
Then the RCC does Saturday Mass.
The the RCC says it's not Saturday, but Sunday...because...
THE JEWS said so.
Which is why the SDA does Saturday Sabbath!
To me that is quite entirely hilarious. Second laugh. Thank you.
you can't make this stuff up.

...And no one has thrown out more solidly Christian and Biblically based traditions, practices and teachings than the SDA Church has.
Please, no explosions. There used to be a chap who was always exploding things
I've seen a few bubbles broken from time to time too

SDA's discard man made traditions based on Jesus' words:quote=MarkRohfrietsch;64296946]...And no one has thrown out more solidly Christian and Biblically based traditions, practices and teachings than the SDA Church has.
Matt. 15:9 "But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men."

I believe that that was Mark's point.
Having deemed various Scriptural beliefs and practices that are common to both Catholicism and Protestantism to be disposable merely because the SDA leadership has labeled them "man made," the SDA has thrown out more Christian beliefs and practices than perhaps any other well-known denomination.
Personally, I'm not absolutely sure of that last point. The Jehovah's Witnesses and Christian Scientists immediately come to my mind, but Mark's estimate is still a reasonable one.

The entirety of the SDA notions over Saturday Sabbath are a mute point.
Theoretically any honest SDA member should be able to sit in that pew on Saturday and come to the honest conclusion that they did NOT become sinless, even on a temporary basis, by doing that.
yet they will claim that all other believers are sinning by not doing so?
I prefer my faith to be sprinkled with HONESTY. It's much more pleasant to sit in the pew in a TRUTHFUL manner
and there is a great side benefit of NOT having to claim some utter nonsense to other believers in the process.
go figure....must be just me.

Are they also a moot point?
Is there some Christian of any denomination that thinks sitting in that pew makes him sinless? This sounds like a candidate for the "Strawman of the Year" contest finals.
Meaning what? Are we supposed to conclude from that statement that the members of every other denomination prefer their faith to be sprinkled with DIShonesty?

When you know what the Commandment says, and you knowingly ignore it, that is a flagrant sin in the sight of God. Moreover, you are not sinning against against me or the SDA church, you are sinning against God himself who wrote the Commandment.

Thanks Albion; I'm so glad that someone gets it (you always have BTW)!
BTW, I personally consider the SDA Churches Christian; however, I can not, in good conscience say the same for the other two aforementioned ones, to which can be added Mormons and Christidelphians too.
