Cardinal Sarah: "There is a serious illness in the Liturgy" Cardinal Robert Sarah gave an interview to valeursactuelles.com. Summary (by Sanoj Thomas):
• The idea that we are all going to Heaven is not in the Gospel.
• Sin must be denounced and the guilty must be punished.
• Islam is spreading because we [Catholics] are neither missionaries nor fervent in our faith. The advancement of Islam reveals the Christians' tibbility. We don't dare evangelize.
• Liturgy obeys coded standards, inherited from a thousand generations, but Catholic liturgy is sick today.
• Why are so many young people fascinated by ancient liturgy? Let's be honest. It would be very easy to simply say that everyone has a psychological need for identity. But wouldn't it be better to admit that many celebrations disappoint them?
• Liturgy is sometimes believed to be more accessible through the use of secular music, artificially relaxed attitudes, removal of sacred separations and architectural leveling of churches. This …More

Vatican II only decreed that the liturgy was to be “revised,” as soon as possible, and it provided some guidelines for how to accomplish it. It can be said with certainty that the TLM, by the 1962 Missal, is not in line Vatican II. Maybe the 1965 Missal was, but not the 1962, because it is “unrevised” following Sacrosantum Concilium.

Vatican II only decreed that the liturgy was to be “revised,” as soon as possible, and it provided some guidelines for how to accomplish it. It can be said with certainty that the TLM, by the 1962 Missal, is not in line Vatican II. Maybe the 1965 Missal was, but not the 1962, because it is “unrevised” following Sacrosantum Concilium. Cardinal Sarah has his opinion, Pope Benedict XVI had his, Jorge Bergoglio has his. I think Cardinal Sarah is trying to say that the Novus ordo “can” be Catholic. That is no compliment to a Catholic liturgy. Nor is it a compliment to an ecumenical council to say that it “can” be interpreted in a Catholic way, as long as the right hermeneutic is applied.
Can we just say that the Tridentine Mass is faithful to the Council of Trent and if by some remote chance it’s not faithful to Vatican II then it just doesn’t matter because we know it’s 100% Catholic.

Trudentine Mass would be faithful to the Vatican II.
When you read V2 documents you will see:
Latin as the main language, gregorian singing, priest facing the altar....and so on.
That what is happening in the most of the parishes is against V2- that's what Sarah is trying to say there.
Many people talk against V2 not knowing what documents actually says about Mass celebrations.More
