text: What does it even mean do be a Council of Trent type? Can you explain it to me? I think I am a Council of Trent type. I also think I am a Vatican 2 type. And a Vatican 1 type. And a Nicaea type for that matter. You see, you can't just piece of the tradition can say you accept this but not that. The tradition is a whole. The idea of being a pre-vatican 2 or post-vatican 2 Catholic is just nonsensical.
