Oral Tradition does not change; it develops. Nothing taught by the Church now changes contradicts anything the Church taught any time in the past 2000 years.Groovy said:Yes, very nice.
I would agree that it is not the 'supreme' standard of truth, it is the standard of truth, but it is not the only standard of truth.
The only problem with Oral Tradition is that it can change.
Whereas Written Tradition is not changed.
The Church has changed a lot in 2000 years.
But the Bible is the same as it was when it was put together in... the first or second century.

Groovy said:But the people of the Church are not infallible. Nor is their interpretation of the Bible infallible. And even people of the one Church can interpret the bible differently.
The Pope and the bishops are, in certain situations, and their interpretation also is. That's why we're not to interpret the Bible on our own, like the Protestants do, but to be guided by the teachings of the Church.
