You guys gotta back your suggestions with a little bit of a description. Like, why that word in particular? Why not some other similar word?
Words related to restoring, fixing, mending, repairing, seem to convey a good idea, because they imply that there is something broken that needs to change through some action
I said Restore because:
1) It's an imperative word, i.e. a call to action. These are useful for marketing but not sure if that's what you're looking for in just general slogans.
2) It mirrors the left's tactic of "progress". Their message is always that nothing is good enough, we must always be "moving forward". "Restore" gives the same message, "nothing is good enough right now, we must change", but it turns the direction of the progress.
3) Even more so, it states that the current "progress" has only driven us to aged stagnation.
Compared to other similar words, "restore" is relatively high-frequency in the vernacular, but there's also "Revive" and "Renew". They however are lacking in point (3) a bit, compared to the building-related connotations of "Restore"
Now that's good argumentation
We had a tremendous procession of the Blessed Sacrament today.
We managed to kidnap about twenty children from the congregation to throw into some robes.
Also had two girls in white dresses leading the procession throwing rose petals onto the ground.
It was tremendously edifying.
But was it diverse and multicultural?
Ew, sod that.
Where are the sand peoples
I find it incredible that Catholicism is rising in the UK
lmao what is used to determine that
Because you actually know remarkably little about the United Kingdom, dear boy.
A poll where people identify as catholic?
Though it is true
That there must be some kind of polarization
No, Catholic ceremony is making a comeback.
I believe English Catholics, on average, value the liturgy more than their European counterparts, owing to its deprivation from these fair isles for three-hundred years. Compared to mainland Europe which coddled the faith in that time.
@Marcus The only thing I would argue is that the word "restore" doesn't have to be intrinsically positive, unlike others like "fix", or "mend"
Anglo-Saxon originating words do get more points though, when possible
How about "Life"
The modernist ideology is death, the idea of "progress" is just how fast we can hurtle towards collapse before our decadence caves and we die. Our movement isn't just about restoration, it's about spreading life, and living lives that foster life, because the only life is in Christ and living for his Glory, which is fostered by the tradition we seek to uphold and instill in our communities and in our children
Restoration is a concept that postmodernists can tear apart. It's good, but they can set themselves against it as saviors looking to the future, to advance rather than go back
To argue against a movement of life, they must show their true colors, and label themselves the peddlers of death they are
The trad lads and I are sat in a common around our St. John's fire, which we were fortunate enough to have blessed by a priest, reading Songs of Roland.
MON JOIE!
Pure straight savage

"Life" sounds aclittle ambiguous. It will leave half wondering what we mean by life and half thinking we're some radical pro-life org.
Fire? The fire in the hearts, the purifying fire.
Way, Truth, Life
Maybe a bit of ambiguity is a good thing. People wonder, they look harder. The people who'd dismiss us don't matter much in the first place.
Having the word be imperative is still preferable.
You're probably right. Maybe I'll spend tomorrow in the thesaurus lmao
ok the imperative version, with 3 catchy words
