The article compares what the Church means by Tradition, with “traditional” faith, values and life style. The author suggests that although in several cases there is a major difference between them, traditional values and faith can be for many people the way to discover the vitality of Tradition. The main attribute of Tradition is not to be unchangeable – as the Church is in a maturing process in its views and practices on a number of issues (e.g. the question if someone who commits suicide should receive a Christian funeral, etc.) but to be interpreted as being vital at all times.
