I'm tired and have no time for games - but even the most irreverent mass can be valid, - form, matter and intent are what is necessary. A satanic mass can be valid if an apostate priest says the correct words of consecration, using the correct matter, but I wouldn't assist at one.

"A satanic mass can be valid if an apostate priest says the correct words of consecration, using the correct matter, but I wouldn't assist at one."

Can you explain this?
