I will defer to scripture.....Matthew 15
Verse 3
But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

V 6
Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

Matt 15:9

But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

When I was a teenager we were always taught this using the RCC as the example of traditions...............MAYBE we had it wrong...(not that the RCC is not tradition personified)....

So much of the UPCI today is "tradition" :foottap

Not always wrong but it should have more to support it than that.

Tradition isn't always bad, in fact it usually isn't and can add a lot of character to a family. But when it comes to religion it becomes apparent that when something has been done for 2, usually 3 generations, it so often becomes doctrine to the point that scripture will be twisted and bent to accommodate whatever family or church custom you, your daddy, and granddaddy grew up observing.
