«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 />
Christ and the entire “people of God” who have been officially<br />

serious ones, like the one in Art. 7 and Art. 14 of the “Institutio<br />
Generalis.” Art. 7 reads:<br />
«Coena dominica, sive Missa, est sacra synaxis,<br />
seu congragatio populi Dei, in unum convenientis<br />
...»<br />
This is a truly heretical definition that brings to mind St.<br />
Ambrose’s words in regard to Herod’s crime:<br />
«Quanta, in uno facìnore (...) sunt crimina!»<br />
[“How many things one does ... which are crimes!”]<br />
(29 August, in “decollatione S. Jo. Baptistae”)<br />
Art. 14 even more blatantly tries to teach that:<br />
«Missae celebratio (...) natura sua (?!) indolem<br />
habet communitariam.» (!!)<br />

compare the “Institutio Generalis” with the infallible doctrine<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
