I think you misinterpreted my question. The question was framed in such a way as to point out the difference between the SSPV and SSPX, they are two distinct groups with distinct Theological/Ecclesiological beliefs.
An "ad hominem" attack would have been pointing out the major league controversy surrounding "Thuc line" Bishops....that however is for another post.
I interpreted your comments as dismissing Dolan for being a sedevacantist rather than addressing his argments against the '62 Missal.
Dolan is entitled to his opinions, I just think it's only fair when looking at his writings to realize that if he were to accept the 1962 missal he would have to accept that the Pope at the time was valid and therefore his core ideology would be out the window.
I personally have some issues with the translations, but think it's hair spliting to differentiate between the 1958 and 1962 missal, for instance wasn't there a revision in 1946? I have a copy of a 1946 missal and a friend of mine told me it's different.
I wonder if there is another article available that states when the changes he laments were incorporated into the Missal.
I meant initially added, such as the Feast days declared, specific rubrics added etc.
