The regulation of the Liturgy is a matter of Canon Law, not the Magisterium. It is assigned, canonically, to the Holy See, and ONLY the Holy See.
Thus, if the Pope declares that the Old Rite will be a Universal Indult, it will be so.
And if the Pope declares that the Old Rite will immediately and totally supplant the Novus Ordo, it will be so.
Given the ordinary prudence, cautions, etc., 'innovations' are allowed.
IT IS NOT A MATTER OF INFALLIBILITY
The regulation of the Liturgy is a matter of Canon Law, not the Magisterium. It is assigned, canonically, to the Holy See, and ONLY the Holy See. And if the Pope declares that the Old Rite will immediately and totally supplant the Novus Ordo, it will be so.And when a past Pope declared that the Novus Ordo immediately and totally supplanted the Tridentine? It was so wasn’t it? Yet so many refused to accept that, and some of these schismed in their disobedience.
Then you will, with knee-jerk obeisance to the Pope, attend Old Rite Masses which THIS POPE AUTHORIZED EXPLICITLY.The Pope has never commanded that we go to the Tridentine, he has only asked his Bishops to make it available for those who wish to go. Thus, if Catholic Guy is not someone who wishes to go, he should not go. That would be obedience, in this case.
The Council did NOT teach infallibly about the Rite of the Mass. The Rite is a CANON LAW matter, reserved to the Holy See. It is regulatory, not doctrinal, not dogmatic. Catholic Guy doesn't want to understand this.CG doesn’t understand this? No offense ninenot, but the folks who generally refuse to understand that are the schismatic Traditionalists who refuse to accept the Novus Ordo. Many of whom rely on Quo Primum of course, and seem to have absolutely no idea what the liturgy really is.
