Transcribed from the talk given by Bishop Bernard Fellay, Superior General of the Society of Saint Pius X, at Saint Vincent de Paul Catholic Church, Kansas City, Missouri (March 5, 2002)....

The Cardinal's position is evident from his interviews such as in 30 Days: "It'?s fine to celebrate either Mass, but please don't pit one against the other. Don't make use of one against the other." Well, the Society is definitely against the New Mass. We even say that it is "intrinsically evil." That's a delicate label that needs a little explanation. By this we mean that the New Mass in itself the New Mass as the New Mass, as it is written is evil, because as such you find in it the definition of evil. The definition of evil is "the privation of a due good." Something that should be in the New Mass is not there and that's evil. What is really Catholic has been taken out of the New Mass. The Catholic specification of the Mass has been taken away. Thats enough to say that it is evil.

Trent

Canon 7. If anyone says that the ceremonies, vestments, and outward signs which the Catholic Church uses in the celebration of masses, are incentives to impiety rather than stimulants to piety,[26] let him be anathema

Wow. That's quite a quote. Link?

Here is what Cardinal Ratzinger had to say abut the errors and ignorance of Tradition as taught by the SSPX. This is useful after the hateful and heretical "doctrine" of fellay re the Mass.

Card Ratzinger; "I mention this strange opposition between the Passover and sacrifice, because it represents the architectonic principle of a book recently published by the Society of St. Pius X, claiming that a dogmatic rupture exists between the new liturgy of Paul VI and the preceding catholic liturgical tradition. This rupture is seen precisely in the fact that everything is interpreted henceforth on the basis of the "paschal mystery," instead of the redeeming sacrifice of expiation of Christ; the category of the paschal mystery is said to be the heart of the liturgical reform, and it is precisely that which appears to be the proof of the rupture with the classical doctrine of the Church. It is clear that there are authors who lay themselves open to such a misunderstanding; but that it is a misunderstanding is completely evident for those who look more closely.
