A MISSA NOVA É A MAIS TRADICIONAL? RESPONDENDO "O CATEQUISTA"

There is a serious error circulating among those who try to justify Pope Francis' Motu Proprio with arguments better than blind obedience; as is done by the page "O Catequista," according to which the Mass of Paul VI would be as traditional, or even more so, than that of St. Pius V. 01:22 A very brief history of the Mass 04:38 The continuity of the Tridentine Mass with the previous Roman Rite 07:45 The sudden fabrication of the Missal of Paul VI in the words of Joseph Ratzinger 13:10 Pius XII and the condemnation of Archaeologicalism What is implicit in this statement is a serious error against the Faith that has already been condemned by Pope Pius XII in the Encyclical Mediator Dei: 'Archaeologicalism,' or the idea of ​​"returning to the origins of the Church." Another lie circulating on the internet is that the promulgation of the Missal of Paul VI was done in the same way as that of the Missal of St. Pius V, implying that the Tridentine Mass was fabricated 'out of thin air' in 1570, abolishing the previous Rite, and therefore not deserving the name 'Mass of All Time'. While the sudden fabrication is indisputable in the Missal of Paul VI, this is false regarding the Tridentine Mass. And the one who proves this is...

PIX: [email protected] *** Check out Pope Pius XII's encyclical 'Mediator Dei' on the Liturgy: https://www.vatican.va/content/pius-x... *** The quote from Joseph Ratzinger (Benedict XVI) is as follows: "I was astonished by the prohibition of the old missal, for I had never seen anything like it in the entire history of the liturgy. They wanted to give the impression that all this was entirely normal. The previous missal had been drawn up by Pius V in 1570, following the Council of Trent; therefore, it would seem normal that, after four hundred years and a new Council, a new pope would publish a new Missal. But the historical truth is different. Pius V had limited himself to..." ...to rework the Roman Missal then in use, as had always been done throughout history, over the centuries. In fact, many of his successors, like him, had reworked this missal, without ever contrasting one missal with another. It was always a continuous process; continuity was never broken. Did Pius create a new missal? That doesn't exist. There is only a new elaboration ordered by him, as a stage in a long process of historical growth. Now, here is a new fact, subsequent to the Council of Trent, and of a different nature: the irruption of the Protestant Reformation occurred, above all, in the form of liturgical 'reforms' [...]. And this was so well conceived that the boundaries between what was still Catholic and what had ceased to be often became difficult to define. In this situation of confusion, made possible by the absence of liturgical norms and the liturgical pluralism inherited from the Middle Ages, the Pope decided that the Missale The Romanum—the liturgical text of the city of Rome—while undoubtedly Catholic, should be introduced everywhere where the presence of a liturgy in use for at least two centuries could not be attested. This antiquity, once proven, justified the preservation of the ancient liturgy, since, under such conditions, its Catholic character could not be questioned.” (J. Ratzinger, La mia vitta - "My Life" - pp. 111).
