Like a switch we can turn
the hermeneutic of continuity with Tradition on and return to the Athanasius
Creed, the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus at the Melkite, Ambrosian, Syro
Malabar and Byzantine Rite in the Catholic Church. We simply interpret Vatican
Council II with the Rational Premise and return to the old theology. Even the
Novus Ordo Mass and the Latin Mass will have the ecclesiology of the Roman
Missal of pre-Pope Paul VI times.
At Dijon, France, for
example Holy Mass is offered in different rites and they can all interpret
hypothetical cases of LG 8, LG 14, LG 16, NA 2, GS 22, UR 3 etc, in Vatican
Council II as not being exceptions for Feeneyite extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
So we no longer
interpret Vatican Council II like Ratzinger and Fellay and maintain the break
with the past like Kasper and Burke. We control the hermeneutic. Our handle for
control is the premise.
We have the same Council
before us but we look at it differently- and theology changes.
Our ecumenism is now
exclusivist and inter-religious dialogue is ecclesiocentric- since there is no
other rational choice. This theology of course does not depend upon the Latin
or Greek Mass.
At Mass in French the
homilist can say outside the Church there is no salvation- according to Vatican
Council II. Even at Mass in Latin in a school building, far from the church and
approved by the bishop, the congregation will be missionary since the Catholic
Church is missionary, with a new interpretation of Vatican Council II which
really is the old theology of the Church. Whether it is the diocesan, FSSP or
SSPX priest, they all have to eat from the same Vatican Council II dish. This
will be hard to swallow for Kasper and Koch.
So what’s new over the last 50 years?!
We now can choose the hermeneutic of
continuity with Tradition and it does not
depend upon the Latin or Novus Ordo
Mass or what the pope chooses. It does
not depend upon Vatican Council II
(Irrational ) and the mistakes of the
Council Fathers.
We change our premise- and we change
the Church. We finally have doctrinal
and theological unity.-Lionel Andrades
