The Church's 'apostolic rule' is that 'antiquity was retained, novelty was rejected,' according to Bishop Schneider. (LifeSiteNews) — Bishop Athanasius Schneider warned in a sermon this weekend that “nothing is more dangerous for a religion” than “interference with the liturgy.” He emphasized that it is a perpetual precept of the Catholic Church to remain faithful to its tradition, both “doctrinally and liturgically,” The Catholic Herald reported. The bishop declared in Limerick that “the liturgy is Tradition in its most powerful and solemn form. Only the Catholic Church can say ‘I transmitted to you what I received from the Lord.’”
