Fair enough. Therefore, when you said in your original post that the ceremony of "kirking" or "blessing" of tartans was an "anathema tradition" you meant that those who participate in this ceremony are cursed or damned. They have separated themselves from God as a result of their actions.
Again I ask you, would not it have been better to use the term "adiaphora"? This term applies to things which God has neither forbidden nor commanded, which are in themselves indifferent - therefore it is no sin either to do or not to do them.
Kindly reconsider.
