The Novus Ordo Mass can be offered with the same Missal used by the SSPX today : the New Missal is inadequate since it is based upon Vatican Council II interpeted irrationally

 

Catholic priests can offer the Novus Ordo Mass with the same Missal used by the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX). The new Missal is based upon Vatican Council II interpreted irrationally. They can also adapt the Mass in the vernacular with rubrics which they think are there in the Latin Mass but are missing in the Novus Ordo.

The Novus Ordo Mass is being offered in Latin for many years here in Rome. I have attended them.

With Vatican Council II interpreted rationally the ecclesiology of the Mass is the same for me, as the Mass in the 16th century in Latin and in the first three centuries in Greek.

The Novus Ordo Mass can also be offered facing East and the Eucharist can be given to communicants at the altar rail.

The priest can affirm the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus (EENS) according to the Magisterium and missionaries of the 16th century, in harmony with Vatican Council II ( AG 7/LG 14) and the Catechism of the Catholic Church (845,846), the Catechism of Pope Pius X ( 24Q, 27Q), the Fourth Lateran Council (1215), the Council of Florence, Cantate Domino ( 1442) etc. They are not contradicted by hypothetical cases of LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, UR 3, NA 2,GS 22 etc in Vatican Council II.

The New Missal is inadequate since it is based upon Vatican Council II interpreted irrationally.

So if there is an en-cultured Mass in India, like that of Fr. Bede Griffiths and the Jesuits, the priest must interpret Vatican Council II rationally and with the old versions of the Roman Missal. It is unethical to choose an ecclesiology based upon Vatican Council II interpreted deceptively.

It would be the same for a Mass at which Mayan or Amazon symbols are chosen.- Lionel Andrades
