«Qui in ecclesiasticam hierarchiam cooptantur,<br />

non ex populi, vel potestatis saecularis consensu,<br />

aut vocatione adleguntur; sed in gradibus<br />

We are dazed when we find ourselves in front of such an<br />

arbitrary and daring definition, condemned by Pius X<strong>II</strong> in<br />

his “Mediator Dei”, almost as it was a promiscuous action of<br />

from the Council of Trent and Pius X<strong>II</strong>’s teachings.<br />

The logical disposition of the terms in Art. 7:<br />

«Coena Dominica, sive “Missa” est sacra<br />

Synaxis, seu Congregatio Populi Dei”; makes it
