New Mass


* The Problems with the New Mass
The newest addition to our growing library of Traditional Catholic materials, this book, written by Dr. Rama Coomaraswamy, covers many issues concerning the Novus Ordo controversy - issues such as the ambiguities of the New Mass, it's ecumenical foundation, it's dubious consecration formula, and so forth.  Certainly a hard-hitting, and well-written, book.  Highly recommended! 


* Unmasking the New Mass
In this article, John Vennari provides a concise review of a book recently released by the Society of Saint Pius X, The Problem of the Liturgical Reform (available online in PDF format).  This book is undoubtedly one of the best that has thus far been published on the issue, and it's arguments are relatively new, and are solidly backed up with numerous citations.  It is excellent reading, and is certainly worth the time.


* Vatican Approves Hula Masses
"News has come from Honolulu that the Vatican approved 'Hula Masses' for the Catholic Church in Hawaii. Catholics worldwide are shocked by this development, since many see it as an isolated aberration. Yet this latest anomaly is not a quirk in an otherwise flawless 'renewal'. It is part and parcel of the program for liturgical restructure unleashed upon the world since the Council."  Taken from the March 1999 issue of Catholic Family News.


* The Arguments against the Novus Ordo Missae
If one is looking for a relatively short and concise article putting forth some of the major objections that Traditional Catholics have towards the Novus Ordo, then this article is it.  It is well written, and well documented - one of the best articles on the subject. 


* Quo Primum Tempore!
On the 14th of July, 1570, His Holiness, Pope St. Pius V, issued the Bull Quo Primum, codifying the Traditional Mass for all time, and granting a perpetual indult to all Catholic Priests to say the Traditional Mass, which Indult is still in place - any priest may say the Traditional Latin Roman Mass.


* The Great Sacrilege
This is, by far, the best book dealing with the Novus Ordo available.  This book proves that the New Mass does not involve Papal infallibility, that the Missale Romanum of Pope Paul VI is null and void, that Quo Primum is still in effect, that the Novus Ordo is illegal, and that the Novus Ordo Missae is simply not Catholic.  Powerful!


* The Ottaviani Intervention
Completed on June 5 1969, and sent to Pope Paul VI on September 25 1969, signed by Cardinals Ottaviani and Bacchi, and compiled by numerous theologians, this remains, even after nearly thirty years, a superb compilation of the problems with the Novus Ordo.
