[QUOTE="Lawrence87, post: 1519913, member: 23052"] The Orthodox are big on tradition because that is how the Christian life is preserved. It is tradition that you have to thank for the scriptures themselves. Without the traditions that held which of the many books circulating in the early Christian period were authentic, none of us would have our Bible. This is why tradition must be staunchly defended and preserved, because without it things become degraded and eventually lost. You only have to look at certain more liberal Christian sects to see the effects of throwing tradition out of the window. Also I'm not aware of any Orthodox traditions that are vastly removed from living the Gospel and following Christ. [/QUOTE]
