First post for me on the upgraded board, looking well, but again thanks for linking a full copy of this wonderful text which shows that the Novus Ordo Missae is a sacrilege, and that rejecting it does not make a person a sedevacantist. I believe he notes how Missale Romanum in original Latin offered the NOM as something for the consideration of Catholics, and in only in translation did the mandatory reality appear. The work obviously lacks the benefit of later Traditional scholarship, being from early seventies, but you can see how Fr Wathen was able to analyse clearly how much was wrong with the NOM. It is worth reading too for the sheer emotional force.
