Are you claiming that this document binds all Popes for all generations liturgically?

Nope. I'm just stating that St. Pius said that the codified Mass at his time could not be forbidden in the future to any priest wishing to celebrate it.

This document?

For heavens sake, it's a Bull issued by a great Pope who has been declared a saint. What more do you need?

Then you are indeed claiming that the document binds all Popes for all generations liturgically. If the Pope can’t forbid the use of a particular liturgy, then he is bound, is he not?

In answer to your question then, I stand with Pope St. Pius V, and with the Popes who followed him, but I most certainly do not stand with you or your incorrect interpretation of his words any more than I stand with a Lutheran and his incorrect interpretation of the Bible.
