We are in this new generation and we should live the way the Lord wants us to live our lives. Let's be aware of our old traditions. *
I think I agree with the quote, and am curious as to where it comes from.

The Church cannot avoid a 'culture' -- it is too much a part of people. Most of us grow up and cannot even really evaluate our own culture, unless they travel abroad or otherwise shake themselves out of complacency and habitual routine, even in thinking and feeling. Pretty tough thing to do.

And not all traditions are bad.
